挑战
To enhance the quality of its customer service, Mountain High Potato & Onion needed to enable an automated load tracking solution that would provide accurate information without relying on verbal communication.
关于客户
Mountain High Potato & Onion Inc., headquartered in Keizer, OR, provides produce to wholesalers and retailers throughout North America. The company’s product originates mainly in Oregon, Washington and Idaho and is hauled in refrigerated trailers by for-hire carriers and owner-operators. Freight brokers arrange the majority of the 75 loads hauled each week.
解决方案
Mountain High Potato & Onion now requires MacroPoint load tracking software through its integration with Real Time Freight on nearly all hauls handled by brokers, carriers or owner-operators. The company receives exception reports, triggered by pre-set time and location parameters in MacroPoint that indicate if a truck will miss its scheduled delivery time and also tracks loads by logging into the MacroPoint portal. MacroPoint’s integration with the Real Time Freight enables freight tracking as a seamless solution for Mountain High Potato & Onion, providing visibility into the location of its freight directly into the transportation management system.

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.
