The Challenge
Elektro-Material wanted to improve the scanning performance of their EM order app to optimize user experiences. The app had an open source scanning solution that was slow and resulted in delays in fulfilling orders, leading to a poor user experience and reduced app usage.
The Customer
Elektro-Material
About The Customer
Elektro-Material is a leading supplier of electrical components in Switzerland, serving a wide range of customers in the construction industry. They offer a comprehensive catalog of 250,000 electrical goods and have digital channels like the EM webshop and the EM order app for customers to place orders.
The Solution
Elektro-Material switched to Scandit's scanning solution, integrating their barcode scanner SDK with the EM app. Scandit's technology provided instantaneous scanning response and compatibility with over 20,000 smartphone models. Additional features like OCR text recognition, MatrixScan, and augmented reality overlays were also added to enhance the app's functionality.

Hydro One Leads the Way In Smart Meter Development
In 2010, Ontario’s energy board mandated that time-of-use (TOU) pricing for consumers be available for all consumers on a regulated price plan. To meet this requirement, Hydro One needed to quickly deploy a smart meter and intelligent communications network solution to meet the provincial government’s requirement at a low cost. The network needed to cover Hydro One’s expansive service territory, which has a land mass twice the size of Texas, and its customers live in a mix of urban, rural, and remote areas, some places only accessible by air, rail, boat or snowmobile. Most importantly, the network needed to enable future enterprise-wide business efficiencies, modernization of distribution infrastructure and enhanced customer service. To meet these needs, Hydro One conceptualized an end-to-end solution leveraging open standards and Internet Protocols (IP) at all communication levels. The utility drew upon industry leaders like Trilliant to realize this vision.
