关于客户
Atlantic Dominion was originally founded in 1875 as a Tobacco Company and established as a retail distributor in 1904. Today, the company supplies all classes of the retail trade with 10,000 different products including retail consumer goods, frozen foods, tobacco, candy, cigar and cigarettes. They are now the 19th largest convenience store distributor in the USA. The company has two distribution centers located in Virginia Beach, VA, and Hope Mills, NC, serving regions including VA, MD, DC, DE, and the Outer Banks, NC. Atlantic Dominion is known for its extensive product range and commitment to superior customer service.
挑战
Atlantic Dominion wanted to increase customer service capabilities to keep up with the needs of their growing retail base. Their plan was to improve order visibility and increase efficiency in warehouse and distribution operations. The company needed better capacity utilization and picking efficiencies in their piece pick and cartonization operations. In addition, they needed a sales tax solution to manage the high degree of complexities and challenges in dealing with state specific duties/tax for cigarette stamps generation and related reverse logistics.
解决方案
Atlantic Dominion selected Softeon WMS to replace their legacy ERP system. The company has two DCs with one in VA and the other in NC. They handle 8000+ SKUs through pallet, case or piece pick. Warehouse and distribution operations were fully optimized from end-to-end for faster order fulfillment and visibility. The team implemented true multi-building, inventory visibility and capabilities in inventory control for other areas such as picking by zones for frozen/dry foods, drinks, cigarettes and retail items sold in convenience stores. In addition, they gained capabilities for custom distribution services to customers as needed.

Case Study
Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.
Case Study
Improving Production Line Efficiency with Ethernet Micro RTU Controller
Moxa was asked to provide a connectivity solution for one of the world's leading cosmetics companies. This multinational corporation, with retail presence in 130 countries, 23 global braches, and over 66,000 employees, sought to improve the efficiency of their production process by migrating from manual monitoring to an automatic productivity monitoring system. The production line was being monitored by ABB Real-TPI, a factory information system that offers data collection and analysis to improve plant efficiency. Due to software limitations, the customer needed an OPC server and a corresponding I/O solution to collect data from additional sensor devices for the Real-TPI system. The goal is to enable the factory information system to more thoroughly collect data from every corner of the production line. This will improve its ability to measure Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and translate into increased production efficiencies. System Requirements • Instant status updates while still consuming minimal bandwidth to relieve strain on limited factory networks • Interoperable with ABB Real-TPI • Small form factor appropriate for deployment where space is scarce • Remote software management and configuration to simplify operations

How Sirqul’s IoT Platform is Crafting Carrefour’s New In-Store Experiences
Carrefour Taiwan’s goal is to be completely digital by end of 2018. Out-dated manual methods for analysis and assumptions limited Carrefour’s ability to change the customer experience and were void of real-time decision-making capabilities. Rather than relying solely on sales data, assumptions, and disparate systems, Carrefour Taiwan’s CEO led an initiative to find a connected IoT solution that could give the team the ability to make real-time changes and more informed decisions. Prior to implementing, Carrefour struggled to address their conversion rates and did not have the proper insights into the customer decision-making process nor how to make an immediate impact without losing customer confidence.

Digital Retail Security Solutions
Sennco wanted to help its retail customers increase sales and profits by developing an innovative alarm system as opposed to conventional connected alarms that are permanently tethered to display products. These traditional security systems were cumbersome and intrusive to the customer shopping experience. Additionally, they provided no useful data or analytics.
