关于客户
Unilever is a global leader in consumer products, serving two billion people across more than 190 markets worldwide. In 2009, the company established UltraLogistik in Katowice, Poland, to coordinate and streamline its transport operations across Europe. The Ocean Logistics team within UltraLogistik focuses on managing ocean shipments to various destinations, a task that has grown increasingly complex over time. Unilever's goal was to enhance the efficiency and visibility of its ocean logistics processes.
挑战
Unilever, a global leader in consumer products, faced significant challenges in managing its ocean logistics operations. The company aimed to streamline these processes, achieve greater efficiency, and improve visibility. The complexity of coordinating ocean shipments to multiple destinations required a robust solution to manage key shipping lanes and integrate seamlessly with their existing transport management system.
解决方案
Unilever partnered with e2open to address the challenges in their ocean logistics operations. E2open's experience and connectivity in managing key shipping lanes made them an ideal partner. The integration process involved linking Unilever's transport management system with e2open's platform. E2open's Service Delivery team worked closely with Unilever during the transition phase, conducting numerous tests to ensure seamless integration. Post-implementation, Unilever continued to receive strong support from e2open, which helped in submitting booking, shipping instructions, and eVGM submissions efficiently.

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.

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.
