挑战
Solé Bicycles 是一家位于威尼斯海滩的自行车零售商,由于对其产品的需求不断增长,其财务和供应链面临着复杂的问题。传统的供应链支付流程导致营运资金紧张,迫使该公司做出艰难的权衡,并限制其投资增长的能力。该公司总裁 Jimmy Standley 负责管理 Solé 的全球制造商网络,他发现很难与多个货运代理建立关系。该过程非常耗时、缺乏透明度,并且主要通过电子表格和电子邮件进行管理。
解决方案
Solé Bicycles 与现代货运代理和融资解决方案提供商 Flexport 合作,共同克服挑战。 Flexport 提供了由 Flexport Capital 资助的一系列发货,为 Solé 提供了额外的资本和投资发展业务的自由。 Standley 于 2015 年转而与 Flexport 独家合作,这显着提高了其运营效率和透明度。该公司能够在 Flexport 平台上管理货运,该平台提供了更快、更简化的流程。此外,Flexport Capital 提供快速且经济实惠的融资解决方案,帮助 Solé 克服了供应链现金流问题。

Case Study
Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.

Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.

Case Study
3M Gains Real-Time Insight with Cloud Solution
The company has a long track record of innovative technology solutions. For example, 3M helps its customers optimize parking operations by automating fee collection and other processes. To improve support for this rapidly expanding segment, 3M needed to automate its own data collection and reporting. The company had recently purchased the assets of parking, tolling, and automatic license plate reader businesses, and required better insight into these acquisitions. Chad Reed, Global Business Manager for 3M Parking Systems, says, “With thousands of installations across the world, we couldn’t keep track of our software and hardware deployments, which made it difficult to understand our market penetration.” 3M wanted a tracking application that sales staff could use to get real-time information about the type and location of 3M products in parking lots and garages. So that it could be used on-site with potential customers, the solution would have to provide access to data anytime, anywhere, and from an array of mobile devices. Jason Fox, Mobile Application Architect at 3M, upped the ante by volunteering to deliver the new app in one weekend. For Fox and his team, these requirements meant turning to the cloud instead of an on-premises datacenter. “My first thought was to go directly to the cloud because we needed to provide access not only to our salespeople, but to resellers who didn’t have access to our internal network,” says Fox. “The cloud just seemed like a logical choice.”
