挑战
For Strategic Materials, quality was a primary measure of success, but sharing quality data between plants was a significant challenge. Each plant collected information using its own methods and nomenclature, leading to disparate data that was exported into Excel spreadsheets. This made cross-site comparisons nearly impossible. Brad Bell, Director of Quality & Continuous Improvement, needed a quality system that could quickly and easily unite data from all plants.
关于客户
Founded in 1896, Strategic Materials is the largest recycler of glass in North America. With nearly 50 plants, the company supplies recycled glass to manufacturers of glass containers, fiberglass insulation, highway beads, decorative glass, glass fillers, and other specialty glass. Quality is a primary measure of success for Strategic Materials, and they faced challenges in standardizing quality data across their numerous plants.
解决方案
Brad Bell selected InfinityQS Enact to address the data unification challenge. Within three months, Enact was collecting and analyzing data across 12 plants, and it is now used in 31 plants. Enact provides a centralized data repository, eliminating the need for manual data entry and Excel spreadsheets. The system offers real-time data visibility, enabling quick process corrections and continuous improvement. Enact's flexibility allows differentiation between plants while maintaining standardized data collection and reporting.

Water Treatment Energy Management
Water pumping, treatment and conveyance are among the largest energy and cost outlays for many local and regional municipalities. Electricity time-of-use rates and peak pricing tariffs are driving those costs even higher. This case study describes how Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA) implemented a process data monitoring and control solution in order to analyze and optimize energy use, reduce deployment costs and save operational expenses.

A SMART SOLUTION FOR A CIRCULAR ECONOMY
A detailed study conducted by a student from Universidad Pontificia Comillas ICAI in Spain highlighted the need for ecologically safe and sustainable products. While recycling plays an important role in the circular economy, many consumers don’t recycle for a variety of reasons, including lack of space, inconveniently located recycling centers and collection containers, or distrust and/or disbelief in the recycling process. Organizations needed a model that made recycling easier and more accessible for everyone.
