挑战
Positec 是一家总部位于中国的家装工具制造商和营销商，在管理其全球供应链方面面临多项挑战。尽管该公司的增长速度领先于行业，业务遍及 12 个国家/地区，但其用于管理供应链的内部工具却达不到标准。Positec 缺乏综合预测工具和智能履行能力，无法优化库存水平并有利地部署产品。该公司的补货计划周期很长，这大大延迟了其响应时间。它也没有在区域配送中心层面进行规划的真正基础，并且其整个全球供应链的可见性很低。
关于客户
Positec 是一家家装工具制造商和营销商，主要面向专业承包商和房主。该公司总部位于中国苏州，实现了行业领先的增长。它在 12 个国家/地区拥有近 4,000 名员工。尽管取得了成功，但 Positec 意识到其用于管理全球供应链的内部工具并不代表最先进的创新技术。该公司需要一种综合预测工具和智能履行功能来优化库存水平并有利地部署产品。
解决方案
Positec 实施了供应链管理软件 Blue Yonder，以自动化和更高效率取代了手动规划和报告流程。该软件使 Positec 能够制定涵盖所有客户、地区和产品线的总体预测。它还允许公司为预测分配美元价值，包括新产品发布和零售促销等复杂事件。该公司现在对其需求预测的信心更高，因为它基于全公司的协作以及数据和分析。Blue Yonder 的实施显著改善了 Positec 的供应链运营。

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
