About The Customer
4 Pieds is a leading furniture retailer in France with over 30 years of experience. The company specializes in delivering French and European manufactured products to customers in its 24 locations across the country. 4 Pieds is a dedicated team of men and women who are passionate about two areas: interior decorating and e-commerce. Their clients are at the heart of their business and they aim to offer a large range of customizable, tailor-made, high-quality products at fair prices.
The Challenge
4 Pieds, a leading furniture retailer in France, was faced with the challenge of creating a digital strategy focused on online traffic acquisition for its 24 locations spread across France. The company wanted to build a strong online presence to increase brand awareness and bring its products and service offerings to the forefront. The challenge was to increase the visibility of its stores online.
The Solution
4 Pieds deployed the BRIDGE Store Locator and Local Pages as a key initiative within their digital strategy. The solution enables the brand to increase online visibility of its store while providing customers with the ability to find the nearest location and respective store details. The implementation of BRIDGE gives their online traffic three distinct entry points to their website: the Store Locator search page, the Store Locator results page and dedicated Local Pages for each location. Each of these pages are constructed with detailed local data and optimized content to rank for top positions within search engines. These pages appear in the top positions on search engines for queries containing the brand and either the city, province or region. 4 Pieds also leverages Local Pages to display the available product ranges at each store through the product category feature. By adding product categories 4 Pieds has increased their local SEO, since the Local Pages now appear in top positions in search engine results for queries containing both a product and a location. The online ranking and visibility of Local Page is further increased through the integration of the ‘Avis Verifiés’ module. Every time a customer adds a review for a store it is automatically pulled into the Local Page module and can then be crawled by Google. Adding new content on a regular basis helps to boosts each page’s SEO.

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
Case Study
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.

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.

Ensures Cold Milk in Your Supermarket
As of 2014, AK-Centralen has over 1,500 Danish supermarkets equipped, and utilizes 16 operators, and is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. AK-Centralen needed the ability to monitor the cooling alarms from around the country, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Each and every time the door to a milk cooler or a freezer does not close properly, an alarm goes off on a computer screen in a control building in southwestern Odense. This type of alarm will go off approximately 140,000 times per year, equating to roughly 400 alarms in a 24-hour period. Should an alarm go off, then there is only a limited amount of time to act before dairy products or frozen pizza must be disposed of, and this type of waste can quickly start to cost a supermarket a great deal of money.
Case Study
Supermarket Energy Savings
The client had previously deployed a one-meter-per-store monitoring program. Given the manner in which energy consumption changes with external temperature, hour of the day, day of week and month of year, a single meter solution lacked the ability to detect the difference between a true problem and a changing store environment. Most importantly, a single meter solution could never identify root cause of energy consumption changes. This approach never reduced the number of truck-rolls or man-hours required to find and resolve issues.
