挑战
This multi-concept restaurant operator was experiencing the “spreadmart” phenomenon, with the accounting department manually creating and distributing grid-based excel reports to operations so they can manage their stores. The client wanted to create a single version of the truth for enterprise reporting, consolidate multiple reporting tools, and eliminate these massive and manually generated spreadsheets. In addition, they wanted to move from grid-based reports to visual analytics, and enable executives and field leadership with mobile access to critical information and performance dashboards.

解决方案
Leveraging the FoodOps BI solution accelerator, the Smartbridge team designed, developed, integrated, and launched mobile dashboards for the executive team, finance, and regional operations executives. The project was executed following an agile BI approach to deliver continuous value to the business rapidly. FoodOps is a standardized food industry analytics solution accelerator built based on decades of industry expertise in QSR, fast casual, and full-service segments. It comes with pre-defined data models, KPIs, dashboards, and micro apps to digitally enable typical food field operations. The team reviewed existing reports and conducted interviews with key Finance and Operations resources to identify the key elements they gravitate towards on existing grid reports. They structured a 3-sprint plan for layering incremental functionality over time, conducted iterative mockups (paper > PowerPoint > MicroStrategy), designed the overall look and feel, built all visual and navigation graphical components, migrated FoodOps into the client’s environment, and conducted a schema object mapping exercise to “re-wire” FoodOps components to their data warehouse. They also developed the MicroStrategy dashboards and drove the testing/QA effort.

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.
