挑战
巴克曼是特种化学品领域的全球领导者，其采购流程面临着重大挑战。该公司严重依赖基于电子邮件的手动采购流程，导致员工收件箱积压，采购延迟长达五周。这不仅减缓了整体业务运营，还影响了公司及时响应客户需求的能力。采购流程效率低下导致公司浪费时间和金钱，因此显然需要一种能够简化和自动化这些流程的解决方案。
关于客户
巴克曼是特种化学品制造领域的全球领导者。该公司总部位于美国，在全球市场拥有强大影响力，并以其创新解决方案而闻名。然而，与许多企业一样，巴克曼面临着日益激烈的竞争和更高的客户期望。该公司正在寻找在充满挑战的商业环境中蓬勃发展的新方法。确定需要改进的领域之一是公司的采购流程，该流程严重依赖手动、基于电子邮件的流程，导致严重的延误和效率低下。
解决方案
Buckman 采用 Office 365 的 Nintex 平台来自动化其采购工作流程。该平台提供了一种工具，使销售人员能够更方便地处理采购报告，从而提高销售效率，更快地解决客户问题，并根据更准确的数据做出更好的业务决策。该公司还使用 Nintex 的移动应用程序来提高工作场所安全。选择 Nintex 平台是因为它与巴克曼多年来一直使用的 Office 365 顺利集成。该公司准备将 SharePoint 提升到一个新的水平，并发现 Nintex 平台最适合他们的需求。

Advanced Elastomer Systems Upgrades Production
In order to maintain its share of the international market for thermoplastic elastomers AES recently expanded its Florida plant by adding a new production line. While the existing lines were operating satisfactorily using a PROVOX distributed control system with traditional analog I/O, AES wanted advanced technology on the new line for greater economy, efficiency, and reliability. AES officials were anxious to get this line into production to meet incoming orders, but two hurricanes slowed construction.
