挑战
Estrella, a Swedish snack food producer, was bought from Kraft Food in 2008. One of the conditions of the deal was that Estrella could only continue using Kraft Food’s IT systems during a transition period of six months. This meant that Estrella had to build a completely new IT structure from the ground up in record time. During this period, the company had an enormous need for information and a basis for decision-making. There was no CEO, hardly any administrative staff and only a small number of management personnel in place. The new owners, the Norwegian company Herkules Capital, needed to be able to monitor the company’s development, to an even greater extent than usual, through a number of key figures. The company needed to be guided by remote control from Oslo. The company had used an ERP solution from SAP for many years, but did not have time to procure and put in place such a large and complex system.

解决方案
After a record-fast procurement process, Lawson M3 was chosen as the ERP system. The company was looking more for a partner that could help them put the system in place quickly than for a specific system. They wanted a standard turnkey system with minimal adaptations. Once M3 was in place, a sales support system could also be integrated quickly. However, it became apparent that the reporting modules in M3 were not at all suitable. The company then decided to quickly see whether there was a system on the market that could solve these problems. That was when they found QlikView. It took five (5) days to put QlikView in place, integrated and ready for M3. With QlikView, numerous different users can now quickly get the decision support they need. This includes the majority of important functions, such as production, sales, management, etc.

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.
