挑战
随着 Twinings 的全球业务持续增长,该公司发现自己需要主数据治理系统和供应商门户来支持其扩张。 Twinings 用于主数据治理的传统 IT 系统与公司不断增长的需求越来越不同步。该系统耗时且支离破碎,过度依赖电子邮件和电子表格,这使得维护单一版本的事实变得困难,更不用说进行审计了。该公司希望克服这些限制以及更多限制。它的目标是通过自动化工作流程、数字表单以及与 SAP ERP 软件的集成来简化和扩展其解决方案。 Twinings 寻求一种低成本、低代码的解决方案,使其业务用户可以轻松地自行使用,为他们提供比必须由 IT 员工管理的软件更高的灵活性。
关于客户
Twinings 是一家著名的茶叶公司,其历史可以追溯到 1706 年。该公司仍然像托马斯·特温宁 (Thomas Twining) 在伦敦市中心开设公司时那样小心地购买、冲泡和销售茶叶,开启了英国人之间的爱情故事。公众和持续了 300 多年的饮料。如今,Twinings 已成为一家全球性企业,拥有数百家供应商,每年酿造数千批茶叶。该公司拥有复杂的供应链,其中包括支持物料清单的物料主记录。 Twinings 还生产流行的饮料阿华田。
解决方案
经过 18 个月的详尽 RFP 流程后,Twinings 选择了 Nintex K2 Cloud。 Nintex K2 Cloud 工作流程使用业务和技术嵌入式规则来确保在 SAP 中创建或修改记录之前数据的一致性和准确性。 Twinings 的主数据治理套件包括 20 个应用程序。为了开发它们,Twinings 与 Nintex Professional Services 签订了合同来构建前两个应用程序。凭借这些经验,他们自行开发了其余 16 个应用程序。在主数据治理解决方案取得成功后,Twinings 使用 Nintex K2 Cloud 取代了电子邮件和电子表格的离线组合,这种组合对于供应商的加入速度很慢,阻碍了供应商和 Twinings 采购人员之间的沟通,并且无法让员工了解供应链状况。结果是供应商门户网站为供应商和 Twinings 买家提供了一种在线、实时的方式来共享有关采购订单、装运状态、质量检查等的信息。

Digital Transformation of Atlanta Grout & Tile: An IoT Case Study
Atlanta Grout & Tile, a Tile, Stone & Grout restoration company based in Woodstock, Georgia, was facing challenges with its traditional business model. Despite steady growth over the years, the company was falling behind the web revolution and missing out on the opportunity to tap into a new consumer base. They were using independent software from different vendors for each of their department information and workforce management. This resulted in a lot of manual work on excel and the need to export/import data between different systems. This not only increased overhead costs but also slowed down their response to clients. The company also had to prepare numerous reports manually and lacked access to customer trends for effective business decision-making.

Revolutionizing Construction Equipment Rental: A Case Study on ProsRent and ENO8
ProsRent, a startup that won the 'Best Financial Opportunity' and 'Best Pitch' at CodeLaunch 2016, aimed to revolutionize the way construction professionals source and rent heavy equipment. In the construction industry, project managers and contractors typically rent heavy equipment from supply companies. However, predicting inventory can be challenging, and finding the required equipment at the right time and place can be a hassle. If the preferred vendor doesn't have the required equipment, it results in wasted time and money in searching for it, often leading to higher costs due to non-preferred rates and increased delivery costs if the vendor is located far from the job site. Suppliers, on the other hand, desired access to a wider base of trusted renters that they didn't have to vet themselves and wanted to offer dynamic rental pricing based on demand and availability in their market. ProsRent's challenge was to produce a minimum viable product that was fast and first to market but also strong enough to engender loyalty and repeat business from the target market.

IoT Solution Enhances Comfort and Energy Efficiency at Apple Valley Commons Office
Apple Valley Commons, a mixed-use office complex built in 1986, was facing significant comfort and energy efficiency challenges. The building, which houses a variety of businesses, was experiencing extreme temperature imbalances, causing discomfort to employees and clients. Despite outdoor temperatures being consistently high during summers, occupants had to use space heaters to keep warm. The electricity bills from the constant operation of the heat pump were exorbitant. The building's elevator room on the roof was also overheating, reaching temperatures of 130 to 140 degrees, causing the elevator equipment to shut down. The building's existing controls solution did not provide a front end for diagnostics or remote control. The building management was seeking a solution that could address these temperature issues, improve occupant comfort, reduce operational costs, and increase building visibility.

Revamping EE's Legacy ERP: A Case Study on BT's Strategic Transformation
EE, even after its merger with BT, was operating its ERP estate on legacy infrastructure, hosted on the premises of a third-party supplier. This outdated system resulted in a volume-based operational model, higher time to market, longer delivery cycles, and unsatisfactory customer experience. BT recognized the need for a strategic transformation of these aging ERP systems and sought a partner who could proactively manage application services. The partner was also expected to handle development requirements associated with application management services, drive accountability, and ownership with a time and target-driven transformation of these services. BT's primary goals were to improve customer experience, reduce cycle time, and measure these improvements with precision.
