The Challenge
In the quick service restaurant chain world, fresh tomatoes, lettuce, potatoes, and other produce represent just a tiny percentage of the cost of a meal, which means there are usually only a couple of people dedicated to managing produce for hundreds or thousands of locations across the country. However, the perishable nature of produce means that roughly 40% of complaints are due to products being used past their best-by date. This results in a lot of challenges for the restaurant chain without the manpower available to solve them. Danaco Solutions helps large quick service restaurant chains overcome that challenge by working as their outsourced produce supply chain experts. Before Domo Everywhere, Danaco struggled to share reporting with its restaurant chain clients. They would end up sending a lot of reports, but there wasn’t a ton of interactivity.
About The Customer
Danaco Solutions is a company that helps large quick service restaurant chains manage their produce supply chain. As the CFO and CIO of Danaco, Michael Schallman relies on Domo Everywhere to share real-time insights with each customer about the current state of their supply chain, helping restaurants control costs while optimizing their fresh produce supply chain. The company has 7 employees and 114 Domo users. They work with restaurant chains across the United States, providing them with valuable insights and data to improve their operations and reduce costs.
The Solution
Danaco Solutions implemented Domo Everywhere to share real-time insights with each customer about the current state of their supply chain. This helped the restaurants control costs while optimizing their fresh produce supply chain. Domo Everywhere enabled more decision-makers across each customer to leverage Domo in their own work. Previously, insights were only shared with a procurement or supply chain specialist. Now users from the C-suite down to analysts at each client are using Domo to assist in making business decisions. By centralizing all of a customer’s produce supply chain intelligence in Domo, Danaco is able to help its customers save money and improve quality.

HEINEKEN Uses the Cloud to Reach 10.5 Million Consumers
For 2012 campaign, the Bond promotion, it planned to launch the campaign at the same time everywhere on the planet. That created unprecedented challenges for HEINEKEN—nowhere more so than in its technology operation. The primary digital content for the campaign was a 100-megabyte movie that had to play flawlessly for millions of viewers worldwide. After all, Bond never fails. No one was going to tolerate a technology failure that might bruise his brand.Previously, HEINEKEN had supported digital media at its outsourced datacenter. But that datacenter lacked the computing resources HEINEKEN needed, and building them—especially to support peak traffic that would total millions of simultaneous hits—would have been both time-consuming and expensive. Nor would it have provided the geographic reach that HEINEKEN needed to minimize latency worldwide.

Temperature Monitoring for Restaurant Food Storage
When it came to implementing a solution, Mr. Nesbitt had an idea of what functionality that he wanted. Although not mandated by Health Canada, Mr. Nesbitt wanted to ensure quality control issues met the highest possible standards as part of his commitment to top-of-class food services. This wish list included an easy-to use temperature-monitoring system that could provide a visible display of the temperatures of all of his refrigerators and freezers, including historical information so that he could review the performance of his equipment. It also had to provide alert notification (but email alerts and SMS text message alerts) to alert key staff in the event that a cooling system was exceeding pre-set warning limits.
