The Challenge
In 2018, Honeywell embarked on a strategic initiative to implement a global design model (GDM) for its CRM solution. This initiative was a result of a high-level blueprint of recommendations, which were gathered from over a hundred Honeywell employees across various functions. The next step for Honeywell was to find a suitable sales forecasting tool. The goal was to improve sales forecast accuracy across business units, enable informed decision-making, and predict short and long-term performance. However, Honeywell faced several challenges. These included disconnected CRM instances maintained across business units, low accuracy in predicting short and long-term deals and opportunity performance, lack of real-time deal insights, and overspending on underutilized CRM licenses and ineffective call recording tools.

Leveraging the IoT to Gain a Competitive Edge in International Competition
Many large manufacturers in and outside Japan are competing for larger market share in the same space, expecting a growing demand for projectors in the areas of entertainment, which requires glamor and strong visual performance as well as digital signage that can attract people’s attention. “It is becoming more and more difficult to differentiate ourselves with stand-alone hardware products,” says Kazuyuki Kitagawa, Director of Service & Support at Panasonic AVC Networks. “In order for Panasonic to grow market share and overall business, it is essential for us to develop solutions that deliver significant added value.” Panasonic believes projection failure and quality deterioration should never happen. This is what and has driven them to make their projectors IoT-enabled. More specifically, Panasonic has developed a system that collects data from projectors, visualizes detailed operational statuses, and predicts issues and address them before failure occurs. Their projectors are embedded with a variety of sensors that measure power supply, voltage, video input/ output signals, intake/exhaust air temperatures, cooling fan operations, and light bulb operating time. These sensors have been used to make the projector more intelligent, automatically suspending operation when the temperature rises excessively, and automatically switching light bulbs. Although this was a great first step, Panasonic projectors were still not equipped with any capability to send the data over a network.
