关于客户
AmerCareRoyal is a leading manufacturer and distributor of disposable food packaging products. As the producer of a commodity product, its growth depends on the ability to distinguish itself as a differentiated fulfillment partner to its customers. That differentiation comes down to two things: cost and service. In 2020, AmerCareRoyal’s logistics team determined that improvements to its technology infrastructure could support growth by simultaneously lowering costs and improving service – two potentially conflicting goals. A new TMS was the answer, and after evaluating many, the company selected 3G.
挑战
AmerCareRoyal, a leading manufacturer and distributor of disposable food packaging products, was looking to distinguish itself as a differentiated fulfillment partner to its customers. The company's growth depended on its ability to lower costs and improve service. The logistics team was spending a significant portion of the day manually reaching out to brokers and carriers via email, to request quotes and book loads. This process was time-consuming and inefficient. Additionally, AmerCareRoyal was not utilizing capacity efficiently. When manually consolidating loads into multi-stop truckload combo shipments, the team completed about 150-200 per month. The company was also a heavy user of LTL, and the team was looking for ways to reduce its monthly LTL shipments without reducing the amount of product shipped.
解决方案
AmerCareRoyal decided to implement a new Transport Management System (TMS) from 3G. The TMS allowed AmerCareRoyal to utilize capacity far more efficiently. The speed and precision with which the TMS could make optimized consolidation suggestions was far beyond what any human could accomplish with guesswork and spreadsheets. The TMS also helped AmerCareRoyal maintain its commitment to superior customer service. Planning and executing a day’s shipments in the TMS could be done in a matter of a few hours, freeing the logistics team to respond more immediately to exceptions and handle them in real-time. The TMS also extended AmerCareRoyal's commitment to reducing its carbon footprint to its logistics operations.

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.
