关于客户
Sierra Monitor, an MSA Safety Company based in California, is an industrial manufacturing company that develops systems for facility automation and safety. It manufactures flame and gas detectors as well as gateways for building automation. Sierra Monitor aims to make buildings smarter and more efficient by enabling a building’s mechanical apparatus and instrumentation to monitor and manage lighting, heating, and electrical functions. Because of this technology, Sierra Monitor is at the forefront of IoT (Internet of Things) for its respective industries.
挑战
Like many organizations, Sierra Monitor’s back-end systems consisted of different platforms and various shared folders dispersed across operations, engineering, sales, and marketing. This led to mismanaged information, longer launch cycles, missed opportunities, and unnecessary or lengthy meetings due to miscommunication. Because of their various technologies, employees needed to rely on manual methods of data exchange, including sneakerneting or the sharing of USB drives, to facilitate cross-functional business processes. As the company began to scale, Michael Farr, Sierra Monitor’s Vice President of Operations, realized the arising need to consolidate these disparate systems onto a cloud-based solution that would benefit them as they matured as a company.
解决方案
Sierra Monitor chose Propel as their preferred product lifecycle management (PLM) solution to drive greater productivity, efficiency, and visibility across their organization. Because Propel is built on Salesforce, the only product success solution built on the top-rated cloud platform, they were able to leverage their team’s existing knowledge of the tool while also connecting all their customer records and product records into a single system. Sierra Monitor moved its disparate systems, functions, and processes into a single, integrated environment all built on the cloud. 'Because Propel is built on Salesforce, it was a logical approach to move all our information to their platform,' said Farr. With Propel, team members can store and discuss product updates, engineering change orders, supplier updates, and more in a central repository enabling them to more efficiently search, access, and manage their product information. Because of the connectivity that Propel provides, Sierra Monitor no longer has to track down or search for information across multiple platforms. Propel promotes and enables collaboration across stakeholders, departments, suppliers, and third-parties.

Porsche Announces Augmented Reality at Scale, Powered by Atheer
The usual practice for car repairs at a Porsche car dealership is to have a factory representative or regional engineer visit to help diagnose the problem, and sometimes a faulty assembly is shipped back to company HQ for damage analysis. All that costs time and money for customers and dealers alike.
