挑战
Fulcher's Seafood 是一家总部位于北卡罗来纳州的海鲜公司，在扩大业务规模方面面临着重大挑战。由于大流行，该公司预制食品的需求突然激增，短短三个月内销售额就翻了一番。然而，由于预算和时间限制，雇用和培训新员工来满足这一需求并不可行。该公司还努力满足严格的食品安全认证要求，这是 80% 的客户的先决条件。此外，该公司还面临库存控制不善的问题，导致交货延迟、缺货和订单短缺。事实证明，使用笔和电子表格的手动系统效率低下且容易出错，导致下游问题产生多米诺骨牌效应。
关于客户
Fulcher's Seafood 是一家总部位于北卡罗来纳州的海鲜公司，专门生产预制食品。该公司由 Chaz Fulcher 和他的妹妹 Christina Fulcher-Cahoon 创立，他们仅推出四种产品就推出了预制食品业务。此后，该公司不断发展壮大，产品范围不断扩大，包括 6 种、8 种，然后是 12 种。尽管面临疫情带来的挑战，该公司的需求却激增，短短三个月内销售额就翻了一番。 Fulcher's Seafood 以其对食品安全和质量的承诺而自豪，80% 的客户需要 HACCP、FDA FSMA 和 SQF 认证。
解决方案
Fulcher's Seafood 采用 Mar-Kov 的食品制造软件来应对这些挑战。该软件提供实时库存控制，使公司能够实现前所未有的生产和交付目标。它还帮助该公司遵守食品安全认证要求。该软件允许员工在每个班次更新库存，并简化了季度库存盘点，在条形码扫描仪和平板电脑的帮助下，只需要 36 个小时。在八次年度定期和随机内部及第三方审核中，Mar-Kov 的软件也被证明是无价的。它可以即时访问准确、详细的信息，从而将提取数据和创建报告所需的时间从几小时缩短到几分钟。该软件还存储了公司的 40 到 60 个食谱，记录更新，并确保使用正确的成分和正确的数量。

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.
