挑战
Ready Foods was previously utilizing a UNIX system for 15 years that they simply outgrew. They required a system that would facilitate all process manufacturing and business operations functions in a unified system to stay competitive in their growing industry. The company was experiencing an essential need for a software system that would be able to meet their long-term needs and grow with them. Their previous system required them to halt operations for 24 hours to manually count inventory levels. They would then spend over a week keying in the data to find where they had lost inventory from one period to the next. This process not only led to a loss in time and money, but was unreliable.
关于客户
In 1972, Ready Foods began producing Mexican food for restaurants and retail outlets in the Denver area. Over the years, Ready Foods has expanded and evolved from a manufacturer of Mexican food to becoming a custom food processor, producing a wide variety of products for restaurants nationwide. Ready Foods manufactures savory sauces, beans, salsas, soups, dressings, gravies, deli spreads, stuffings, meat and vegetable fillings and tortillas. The company has experienced extensive growth and expansions over the years.
解决方案
Ready Foods spent over a year reviewing 12-15 ERP solutions, narrowing to six, before selecting ProcessPro as their software of choice. ProcessPro embodied similar characteristics of Ready Foods, in that personal relationships were essential to building strong partnerships. Ready Foods implemented the ProcessPro ERP solution in February 2012. ProcessPro has enabled Ready Foods to save time and increase accuracy of inventory, eliminate dual data entry and increase quality control standards. The company also utilized software add-on applications such as Warehouse Management Solution (WMS), Dock Scheduler, Research and Development (R&D), and Business Intelligence (BI).

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.
