Haier group case study

https://en.urovo.com/article/detail/haiergroup.html

Case study from Haier group

Challenges

Considering the intense competition and rapidly changing market demands, providing timely after-sales services to consumers provided the edge enterprises needed to succeed. However, Haier faced numerous challenges in their original fixed information service system, thus unable to effectively roll out their after-sales maintenance services.

1. The transfer of problem cases between the after-sales service centre and the maintenance team lacked an efficient workflow. During busy work times, numerous cases were often misplaced, lost, forgotten and thus had no follow ups and response. This resulted in additional complaints which negatively impacted the group's international brand image.

2. Field service feedback data such as on-site faults and maintenance measures were filled in manually. Inevitably, numerous errors and delays arise. Statistical analysis of service data lacked accuracy and affected the Haier's quality analysis and improvement measures.

3. Difficulty with performance appraisals as there was no way to monitor the location and service quality of maintenance workers. Customer opinions could not be collected for incorporation into the performance appraisal system.

Solution

Haier urgently needed a high-quality maintenance system management tool that could help standardize the workflow for maintenance personnel, to improve the efficiency of daily maintenance operations and the competitiveness of their comprehensive services.

1. Users experience faults with the devices and contacts the after-sales service centre.

2. Service centre arranges all the information and uploads it into the database.

3. Maintenance worker downloads the work order task.

4. Worker proceeds to check information of user and the fault.

5. Worker updates the system with the product information, faults, expenses and service procedures to address the problem.

6. Submit the request for spare parts search through the device.

7. Start maintenance. After completing the repair, update the electronic warranty on the device.

8. If there is a payable fee for the service, the card payment interface will pop up and the card payment will be made on site. Payments are accepted through Urovo’s PDA and a receipt is printed immediately with Urovo’s mobile printer.  

9. Create a maintenance file and upload a maintenance record.

Results

1. Haier can track and record location of on-site maintenance personnel, standardize services for maintenance personnel, and perform real-time dispatch of resources remotely.

2. Real-time information exchange on sudden and frequent problems in devices provides Haier the information needed to research and develop the quality of products.

3. Time-efficient as maintenance personnel can accept and complete maintenance tasks without having to return to the company to obtain the cases and query internal information.

4. Scanning the various product codes with Urovo’s handheld barcode readers during the home maintenance automatically updates the maintenance records on the system, and generates statistical reports every month, which greatly improves the operation efficiency.

5. Maintenance personnel can provide additional services such as inspecting the spare parts and provide customer spare parts price consultation. This improves the quality of maintenance services and improves customer satisfaction.

Linde to track cylinders using rfid

http://www.investkl.gov.my/Relevant_News-@-Linde_makes_strides_in_Industry_4@0_and_automation_in_the_gas_industry.aspx

At Banting, Linde Malaysia’s semi-automated cylinder filling plant is the first of its kind in South Asia and Asean, with a maximum cylinder filling capacity of over two million cylinders per year. It is one of 11 cylinder filling plants in Malaysia, and serves as the depot for the majority of Linde’s industrial gases clients in the Central Region, although its cylinders can go as far as Pahang and Terengganu. 

Initially, Linde’s cylinder filling plant was located in Petaling Jaya, where cylinders were tracked, emptied, refilled, and painted manually, accounting for a lot of man-hours. In the latter part of 2016, Linde Malaysia’s homegrown Malaysian engineers proposed and developed an Operations Management System (OMS) that would be able to track every cylinder in the plant via individual barcodes, fill cylinders with accurate gas mixtures, while monitoring cylinder pressure, temperature, and quality to specifications.

This high level of traceability using Linde’s Trackabout system translates into complete cylinder stock optimisation, both filled and unfilled, as the operations office can set targets for individual gases or mix types for the shop floor to fulfill. These targets can be tracked and adjusted to customer demands on short notice.

This traceability is pivotal for accountability and quality control (QC) as Linde Banting has as many as 20,000 gas cylinders on site at any given time onsite, and moves 3,000 to 4,000 cylinders in and out daily. Similar to smart parking technology, the OMS can identify available space on site as well as pinpoint the location of filled and unfilled cylinders.

Moving forward, Linde may expedite this process further by introducing RFID to automatically detect the types of gases in the cylinders instead of manual scanning.

How to use QR Code in Malaysia

https://scanova.io/blog/blog/2017/02/01/qr-codes-in-malaysia/

Listed below are 14 examples of how businesses use QR Codes in Malaysia:

1. Customer experience

In 2018, Shell Malaysia launched its first Shell Select convenience outlet. It aims to enhance customer experience by:

• Making outlet accessible at any time of the day
• Offering cashless payments

Besides using credit card and debit card, customers can also make payments using BingoBox mobile app.

With BingoBox mobile app, customers need to scan a QR Code on the app. And then they can place their items on check-out counter to know the total payable amount.

2. Sabah Road Safety Department

In Nov 2016, Sabah Road Safety Department and Shell used QR Codes to spread awareness on road safety in the Malaysian city of Sabah. The QR Code launch marked World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims.

“We hope the awareness would bring the number of accidents in Sabah to a minimum,” he said, adding that the QR code will also provide a list of emergency numbers.” – Herdiansah Abdul Karim, Director, Sabah Road Safety Department

On scanning the QR Code, users could view tips for safety compliances at petrol stations. Besides this, the QR Code also linked to seven road safety tips to reduce accidents.

The department has also engaged taxi companies to install QR Codes in cabs. Tourists can scan the QR Code to learn about road safety and also get emergency contact numbers.

In 2017, Volcano Nameplate, a company based in Malaysia planned to launch security number with QR Codes to curb counterfeiting.

3. Education

Taking a cue from their counterparts in India, Malaysian schools are set to adopt QR Codes.

In Nov 2016, teachers from Zilla Parishad school, Pune held a QR Code education workshop. Teachers from Malaysia and Thailand learnt how to use QR Codes in textbooks.

Adding QR Codes to textbooks makes learning more interactive and increases student engagement.

4. Malaysian Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation (MOSTI)

In 2016, MOSTI partnered with MIMOS Berhad, Malaysia’s national R&D center to add QR Codes on durian boxes. Durian is a South Asian fruit popular in Malaysia and Indonesia. The Musang King variety of durian is considered the best and is popular in China. The QR Code initiative, a part of an agricultural drive is to avoid the fruit’s counterfeiting in China. Customers can scan the QR Code to check the fruit’s authenticity. The QR Code leads to a website with information such as:

• Where the durian came from
• Details on its packaging
• Certification from health agencies

Addition of QR Codes to boxes has increased durian’s sale in China by 20%. The QR Codes also allows retailers to track number and location of scans.

5. Secretariat for the Advancement of Malaysian Entrepreneurs (SAME)

In Aug 2016, SAME announced a financial roadshow in Malaysia. The roadshow featured SAME’s Malaysia QR Code. This was to promote QR Code as an effective marketing tool.

6. Double A

In 2016, Double A, a paper manufacturer, launched the 1Dream1Tree app in Malaysia. The app helps users plant paper trees in support of the environment. Using the app, users can scan the QR Codes posted on the packaging of Double A’s paper. Users are then directed to a website where they can activate planting of a Double A paper tree.

By Aug 2016, Malaysia donated 7,759 trees using the app, making it the highest donor in the list.

7. WatchUs

Three friends, Muhammad Adrian Wong, Mohd Hafizuddin, and Muhammad Azlan Shah have developed WatchUs. WatchUs is an emergency response app developed on iOS. It comprises three mobile apps that connect citizens to many emergency teams.

The app shows information such as:

• GPS coordinates
• Estimated time of arrival to hospitals
• Real-time pre-hospital information (videos, pictures, and EKG results)

The app’s developers also plan to help victims using QR Codes that can unlock an e-locker.

8. Webe 850

In May 2016, Webe 850, a telecom and wireless broadband provider, organised a QR Code treasure hunt. The company posted several QR Codes across Malaysia. Users had to download the Webe 850 Android app and scan these QR Codes. Besides lifestyle vouchers and free taxi rides, the extravagant prize list included:

• One week stay with three friends on a private island
• A week long stay at a castle in UK
• 365 smartphones
• RM 500,000 in cash

The company also set up a giant QR Code maze which contained 12,000 QR codes. Participants got 60 seconds to scan as many QR codes as they could. Each QR Code linked to a gift for the participant and could be scanned only once. Gifts included discount vouchers and smartphones.
