关于客户
Located in Benicia, California, Dunlop Manufacturing was founded as a small, family-owned and operated company in 1965. It has since grown to be a leading manufacturer of world-class electronic instrumental accessories for the music industry with a product line that includes picks, capos, slides, strings and other musical instrument accessories. No other accessory manufacturer comes close to Dunlop’s extensive line of products in terms of quality, innovation and scope. In fact, Dunlop’s products consistently set industry standards in their respective fields. The company’s commitment to excellence and passion for innovation has been rewarded by partnerships with legendary superstars like ZZ Top, Slash, Billy Idol and Lenny Kravitz. These musicians are just some of the artists who proudly use Dunlop’s products to perfect their craft.
挑战
As Dunlop’s product line evolved and gained popularity, the company recognized that it was in need of a manufacturing software program capable of efficiently handling a high volume of transactions while helping deliver customer orders, on-time and error-free. Additionally, the company wanted a solution that would integrate all departments of the business and support rapid company growth. Dunlop’s existing software platform was unable to handle the heavy transaction nature of the business. For a manufacturer of guitar picks and numerous small items, the incumbent system was too slow. The company needed something able to handle the current volume of transactions and scale for future business growth.
解决方案
Dunlop selected SYSPRO for its ability to handle large amounts of data at fast speeds and link to other software. Dunlop planned to open an online store and felt the strong functionalities of SYSPRO would facilitate business expansion. SYSPRO has greatly enhanced communications and efficiencies at Dunlop. It has proven to be effective and easy to use, supplying the needed data to workers at a rapid speed. Jasmin Powell, COO and Co-Owner of Dunlop Manufacturing, states: “The biggest difference is that SYSPRO allowed us to improve communications. It is easier to use. People can just log in and get answers quickly.” In addition to improving company-wide communications, SYSPRO helped Dunlop Manufacturing deliver orders to customers error-free and on-time with the use of the Product Configurator. The SYSPRO Product Configurator enables Dunlop to manufacture custom-imprinted picks with the right signature, creative element or color. In the past this had been a difficult endeavor. The SYSPRO Product Configurator is offered as a module of the SYSPRO solution. It provides the ability to configure complex products on the fly during order entry, even over the web. Product Configurator enables the configuring of labor and materials using rules-based question-and-answer screens, so there is no possibility of errors. The configurator will not proceed to the next step if the previous step has not been configured correctly. It maintains a library of common configurations so that Dunlop can easily call up repeat orders. It also includes the option to convert configured selections into a standard inventory link part to ERP production modules.

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.

Revolutionizing Rodent Control
From pet- and child-safe traps, to touch-free and live-catch rodent control solutions, Victor continues to stay committed to producing superior products that meet the varying needs of today’s pest control professionals. And, with a long standing history supporting customers in the food processing, service, and retail settings, Victor knew that strict regulations were costing organizations thousands of dollars in excess overhead trying to manage their rodent-control solutions. Trap inspections in these environments are often difficult and time consuming, requiring personnel to manually check a trap’s status multiple times per day, amounting to over six hours of manual labor. Victor is looking for an innovative way to increase operational efficiencies with the use of technology.
