挑战
Grain Processing Corporation (GPC), a leading U.S. manufacturer of corn-based products, was struggling with an inefficient system for tracking and reporting compliance parameters for the Clean Air Act Title V. They were using SharePoint to enter over 20 daily logs at two facilities, with several questions per log and per shift, throughout a two-shift day. Their system lacked reporting or notifications, and there was no consistency between the forms in the system. The EHS manager would spend weeks searching through information to obtain the data needed for GPC’s annual Title V certification report and other reporting needs.
关于客户
Grain Processing Corporation (GPC) is a leading U.S. manufacturer of corn-based products. They operate multiple production facilities and are required to comply with the Clean Air Act Title V. This involves tracking and reporting numerous emission sources and points at their various production facilities. The company was previously using SharePoint to manage over 20 daily logs at two facilities, with several questions per log and per shift, throughout a two-shift day. However, this system lacked reporting or notifications, and there was no consistency between the forms in the system.
解决方案
To simplify and standardize data collection and reporting, GPC selected Locus' configurable Platform software solution. Locus Platform was chosen for its ability to be quickly configured to match existing business processes across operating facilities and easily implement changes in permit recordkeeping requirements over time. A dedicated project team at Locus and GPC identified improvements that could be made in Locus Platform from GPC's existing internal system. The collaborative team developed a comprehensive set of requirements that helped fast-track the project to a timely deployment that met or exceeded the GPC user community's expectations. Within six months, the new system was in daily use, and adoption by the remaining facility locations followed soon after.

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.
