挑战
Until 2016, Hanover Foods Corporation was using a manual freight management process which was long and arduous. The company was in need of an automated, feature-rich, TMS platform. They wanted a solution that would vastly improve the visibility across its transportation network. Some of the key requirements during the selection process included the ability to quickly generate accurate reports concerning the prior week’s on-time deliveries. The company also wanted to digitize its manual accounts payable process, which often took five or more hours a month for the controller to manage.
关于客户
Hanover Foods is a privately held manufacturer of canned and frozen products. The company's products are featured in large scale supermarkets throughout the Northeast. The company was using a manual freight management process until 2016. The process was long and arduous, and the company was in need of an automated, feature-rich, TMS platform. They wanted a solution that would vastly improve the visibility across its transportation network.

解决方案
Hanover Foods chose Kuebix TMS as their solution. Kuebix was already serving numerous companies that Hanover Foods was working with such as Topco, Ahold and Weis. Other selling points included Kuebix’s route optimization and how the platform would allow Hanover Foods to better collaborate with its carriers. A vast improvement over its previously manual system, the TMS handles all shipment scheduling, dock scheduling, invoicing, and rate tendering. The implementation of Kuebix TMS allowed Hanover Foods to transition from manual processes to a fully-automated, cloud-based TMS.

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.
