Business requirement
Lindt faced a critical challenge in maintaining consistent product quality within retail stores. Fluctuating temperatures, compounded by factors like loadshedding, posed a serious risk of spoilage. The potential impact on Lindt’s business was significant, with the looming threat of a 110% loss due to chocolate developing an undesirable film and decreasing in quality, necessitating the disposal of entire batches.
Proposed solution
To address Lindt’s pressing business need, RSAWEB Business proposed and successfully delivered a comprehensive Internet of Things (IoT) solution. The solution consisted of strategically placed IoT temperature sensors within retail stores, a user-friendly dashboard for real-time data visualization, and an alert system through a dedicated mobile application.
Solution impact
The implementation of the IoT temperature monitoring system had a transformative impact on Lindt’s operations. Key benefits included:
Optimal temperature maintenance: The solution ensured Lindt’s chocolates were consistently stored within the optimal temperature range, mitigating the risk of spoilage, and preserving premium quality.
Cost-effective communication infrastructure: Leveraging RSAWEB’s LoraWAN network provided Lindt with a cost-effective and efficient IoT communication infrastructure, enhancing overall system efficiency.
Value proposition
RSAWEB Business’s solution brought several key value propositions to Lindt:
RSAWEB LoraWAN network: A robust and reliable network that facilitated seamless IoT communication.
Real-time data: Lindt gained direct insights into temperature conditions within retail stores, enabling proactive decision-making.
Low cost with IoT network: The solution provided a cost-effective approach through efficient utilisation of the IoT network, potentially reducing operational expenses.
Dashboard visualisation: The visual dashboard, created for Lindt by RSAWEB, provides real-time data on key metrics important to Lindt’s operations, enabling quick and easy data monitoring.
Alert triggers: Using a proactive alert system, Lindt could be notified when temperatures deviated from defined thresholds. This enabled timely intervention, preventing potential spoilage and associated losses.
Conclusion
The success of our IoT solution not only addressed Lindt’s immediate business need but also demonstrated RSAWEB Business‘s commitment to delivering innovative, technologically advanced solutions. By exceeding client expectations, RSAWEB Business contributed to safeguarding Lindt’s brand reputation and ensuring the continued excellence of their chocolate products. This case study exemplifies our dedication to providing sustainable and effective solutions that positively impact our clients’ businesses.
