关于客户
Smokey Mountain Chew 是一家生产美国原装畅销无烟鼻烟的公司。该公司提供纯天然草本混合物，包括经典、冬青、樱桃和北极薄荷。尽管产品很棒，但该公司在质量和盈利能力方面却举步维艰。产品的味道和质地在各个批次之间不一致，而且该公司现成的会计软件不足以处理其复杂的制造和分销业务。
挑战
1999 年 1 月，当 Dan Calandro 加入 Smokey Mountain Chew 担任首席财务官时，他发现优质的产品并不一定能带来丰厚的利润。在进行全面的财务和运营审查后，他发现 Smokey Mountain 的质量和盈利能力远远低于其巨大的潜力。其不完善的现成会计软件是问题的一部分。它必须用一个可以处理 Smokey Mountain 复杂的制造和分销业务的系统来替换它。质量保证是 Calandro 最初关心的问题。产品的味道和质地在批次之间不一致。这需要更严格的制造控制、更密切的生产监控和批次分析。
解决方案
Calandro 选择 Sage 100 ERP 来取代不完善的现成会计软件。通过 Sage 100 ERP，创建了一份收益分析报告，利用标准偏差表来突出批次之间的显著差异。通过确定生产日期和相关收益，Sage 100 ERP 物料清单模块允许 Calandro 建立质量控制矩阵。物料清单模块为制造流程中的所有步骤创建了指导方针，为 Calandro 提供了拒绝的标准。责任随后落在了合同制造商身上。不符合标准的材料现在将被销毁，成本加上服务费将退还给合同制造商。

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.
