Brompton Bicycle 通过 RS Industria 和 AWS 将产量提高 20%

Kärcher, based in Germany, is a global manufacturer of cleaning equipment. It operates with more than 160 subsidiaries in 82 countries worldwide. The company wanted to ensure that it could deliver products to its customers on time and at competitive costs. Given the disruptions in global supply chains since the COVID-19 pandemic, the company has undertaken to optimize the responsiveness of its supply chain with a cloud-first approach to operations. It also decided to build a new manufacturing facility in Vietnam. Kärcher wanted this greenfield facility to be cloud-native to provide flexibility while eliminating hardware purchases, reducing efforts needed for maintenance, and improving insights into operations. It worked with AWS Partner Zoi to build that solution on Amazon Web Services (AWS), eliminating an initial six-digit investment in hardware, license, and maintenance costs and ready to start production in just 11 months.

Italian startup Packstyle makes highly customizable flexible packaging for food and other products. It specializes in smaller orders and short production runs—this means that inefficiencies in its ordering system are keenly felt. After trying to develop a platform in-house, it turned to Amazon Web Services (AWS) and AWS Partner Omnys to build a modular, scalable production platform to match its highly specialized factory systems. Switching from manual, paper-based systems has transformed its business, doubled its production rate by making better use of its production facilities, cut order fulfillment times from 3 minutes to 10 seconds, and given all employees access to better data, which gives them a deeper understanding of Packstyle’s customers.
