关于客户
KVA Group 是一家总部位于昆士兰州的电气公司，由 Ben Davis 和 Elliott Furlong 于 2015 年创立。该公司专门从事住宅电气工程、商业商店装修、空调和太阳能收集系统安装。最近，该公司的装修工作大幅增加，工作岗位从5万美元到价值2至300万美元的高端家居装修不等。在短短 8 个月内，该公司的家庭安全和自动化工作岗位增加了 65%。为了应对增加的工作量，该公司不得不雇用六名新员工并购买两辆额外的车辆。联合董事还必须重新定义自己的角色，以更有效地管理业务。
挑战
总部位于昆士兰州的电力公司 KVA Group 由于澳大利亚和新西兰房屋装修工作的蓬勃发展，其工作量大幅增加。这一激增是由于 COVID-19 旅行禁令导致人们将资金投资于家居装修。 KVA 集团专门从事住宅电气工程、商业商店装修、空调和太阳能收集系统安装，在短短八个月内，家庭安全和自动化工作岗位增加了 65%。该公司正在努力应对工作量的激增，因此需要雇用六名新员工并购买两辆额外的车辆。联合董事必须重新定义自己的角色，其中一位担任业务管理职位，另一位担任施工经理。该公司还面临团队管理、工作委派、调度和薪资方面的挑战。
解决方案
为了管理增加的工作量并简化运营，KVA Group 采用了作业管理软件 Fergus。该软件将公司的运营从手动、临时会议转变为基于云的团队管理。 Fergus 使联席董事能够委派任务、为员工安排工作并远程管理团队。该公司的簿记员也开始使用 Fergus，它提供了系统内的所有必要信息，从而无需咨询联合董事。该软件还减轻了工资管理的负担。此外，KVA Group 将 Fergus 与其批发商（包括 Lawrence & Hanson 和 Haymans）整合在一起，确保团队始终可以访问供应商的 CSV 价格手册。当材料成本几乎每天都在波动时，弗格斯还帮助该公司管理定价。

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.
