关于客户
Spark R&D is a company based in Bozeman, Montana, that designs and manufactures splitboard-specific bindings. The company was founded by Will Ritter, who was determined to solve the problem of carrying a snowboard uphill by designing a splitboard-specific binding. Over the last 10 years, the company has grown from a small startup to a thriving enterprise with 35 employees. Spark R&D continues to grow and be a leader in the niche market of splitboard bindings.
挑战
Spark R&D, a company that designs and manufactures splitboard-specific bindings, was facing challenges with its inventory and order fulfillment system. The company was struggling to keep track of its inventory and fulfill orders on schedule. The existing system was informal and closed, with only one person having access to the inventory spreadsheet. This lack of visibility and communication between departments was causing delivery problems. The company was unable to get products out the door until well past their target date. They needed a system that could provide visibility across departments and handle the increasing complexity of their operations.
解决方案
To address their challenges, Spark R&D implemented Fishbowl Manufacturing, a software solution that provided all the manufacturing, order fulfillment, and inventory tracking features they needed. The software allowed the whole company to get involved with managing their own inventory. Each department was given the power to manage their own inventory, breaking the shop up into bits and pieces. Fishbowl Manufacturing also integrated with other software systems that Spark R&D was using, such as QuickBooks and Magento, further improving the order fulfillment process.

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.
