挑战
在实施 E2 ERP 系统之前，Automation Outfitters 一直在努力适应其之前的软件 Global Shop。公司中的每个人都在使用该软件，这导致瓶颈导致计算机速度减慢或完全停止运行。这种持续的中断阻碍了他们的整个流程，使他们的工作变得更加困难而不是更容易。该公司很快意识到需要一套替代的 ERP 系统来简化他们的运营并消除这些瓶颈。
关于客户
Automation Outfitters Inc. 是一家成立于 2005 年的家族企业。最初，该公司专注于住宅自动化，但后来扩展到商业和工业自动化，家庭自动化现在只是业务的一小部分。在过去十年中，Automation Outfitters 经历了显着增长，为其团队增加了 16 名新员工。该公司是一家 OEM 控制制造商，制造按订单设计的控制面板来操作和为制造设施供电。虽然他们的行业非常具体，但他们也提供其他服务和电气工作。Sharon Evans 在公司工作了四年，负责管理多个部门，包括会计、人力资源、采购、客户服务和仓库。
解决方案
在寻找 Global Shop 的替代品时，Automation Outfitters 先是列出了一份长长的供应商名单，然后才缩小范围。Sharon Evans 负责管理公司的多个部门，出于多种原因，她选择了 E2。她认为 E2 易于学习，可以满足他们所有的软件需求，并且具有可供开发的附加功能。该公司决定在 2018 年改用 E2，因为他们认为 E2 对他们的运营更有利。E2 的实施过程比之前的容易得多，因为公司从过去的错误中吸取了教训，并且在实施 E2 时获得了大量支持和资源。他们投入的培训和与实施专家合作的时间得到了回报，他们能够完全过渡到 E2。

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
