挑战
Riviera, a trendsetter in the dairy industry in Quebec, Canada, was facing challenges in maintaining high-quality standards as it expanded its collection of dairy products. The company lacked visibility into key areas of production that were impacting product quality. This included understanding why non-conformity issues remained unresolved weeks and even months after they had been reported. Riviera was relying on paper and word-of-mouth communications with its employees, which made it difficult to track how and when quality-related issues were being resolved. Another problem was the lack of visibility into workers’ skills and records of training events. Some workers who had been with the company for several years had no record of having completed their mandatory training. This was a concern as it was the company's responsibility to ensure that employees are properly trained and follow standard procedures, including promptly reporting, resolving and documenting all issues.
关于客户
Riviera is a trendsetter in the dairy industry in Quebec, Canada. Since its founding in 1920, the manufacturer has maintained a high attention to detail and connection to the land, and continuously modernized its facilities to stay one step ahead of market demand. This strategy has served Riviera well, earning the manufacturer 10 awards for product innovation and design in recent years. As Riviera continues to expand its collection of dairy products, including organic, vegan and other dairy alternatives, the need to adhere to food health and quality standards remain critically important. Riviera has built its food safety procedures based on the Safe Quality Food Institute’s standards. This not only helps the company to meet the discerning requirements of consumers but also is a commercial requirement for many of its supply chain partners and customers.
解决方案
Riviera implemented Poka’s worker performance support app in 2017. Each worker has access to a tablet and the Poka app, giving them instant access to all the content and people they need to do their jobs and keep production lines running, while capturing a digital record of what’s happening on the factory floor. The app made it easier for workers to access and follow proper procedures, leading to a 9% reduction in fruit waste on a yogurt production line. The app also served as a permanent record of all quality-related issues and can be easily searched for specific issues. This was especially helpful during Riviera’s yearly audits when they were asked to produce records of all equipment breakdowns and repairs that took place during the year. The app also enabled Riviera to track the training progress and qualifications of its entire workforce in real-time. A skills matrix provided a factory-wide view of what skills each worker has completed and who has endorsed them.

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.
