挑战
Illes Seasonings & Flavors, a leading manufacturer of liquid and dry food ingredients, was facing challenges in providing timely and accurate data to its customers. The sales representatives lacked real-time visibility into customers’ supply chains, which was crucial for them to view order transactions and have the ability to drill down into shipment information, lot number, manufacturing job and other granular details about each customer. Without the tools to do this, the sales force was spending an excessive amount of time communicating to customer service representatives about the status of orders, and as a result customer satisfaction was suffering. Additionally, sales representatives needed a better mobile device to bring to their on-site meetings with customers. Laptops proved to take an excessive amount of time to set up, further exacerbating customer service issues. Sales people needed to have real-time BI at their disposal, whether they were sitting at their desks or visiting a client.

解决方案
In light of these problems, Rick Illes, President & CEO of Illes, tasked the IT team with finding a product that could work on a mobile platform and would solve these business issues. After researching mobile-ready solutions, Les Howell, Executive Director of IT at Illes, discovered the QlikView on iPad solution. QlikView on iPad delivers a touch-driven interface that makes BI as easy to use as any consumer application. It delivers an engaging iPad BI experience that provides business users with anywhere, anytime access to live data and analytics. Users get all the power of QlikView’s Business Discovery approach with none of the complexity of traditional BI. It also offers the flexibility to instantly adapt analyses, data sources and visualizations to meet changing business needs. After settling on QlikView for iPad, Illes turned to Axis Group, a QlikView partner and leading BI provider delivering the QlikView Business Discovery solution on premise, in the cloud and on demand, to configure the solution for its organization.

Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.

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.
