After attending The Flooring Show on 1st-3rd September 2013), we looked back through our Case Studies to pick out the most exciting (flooring) projects to date.
For a lot of our clients, flooring is not their first thought when it comes to injecting creativity and colour into their space, but the stand-out projects are ones which use bright colours, unusual shapes, or contrasting materials to delineate specific areas.
We hope that next year we can update this presentation with a lot more exciting images.

FactoryMation Streamlines with NetSuite & OzLINKOz Development
Hear How FactoryMation Streamlined Operations with OzLINK
FactoryMation’s growth and expanded product catalog were putting pressures on their warehouse operations. Order pickers were required to memorize the layout of the warehouse and use extreme caution to ensure orders were picked accurately. Many SKUs have similar part numbers, so picking quickly and accurately was a challenge. They realized they needed to implement a system that would increase efficiency without sacrificing accuracy.
With the opportunity to service the PetSmart stores nationwide and the resulting growth, handling the EDI orders with the current process was not scalable. Their traditional wholesale orders were well automated; however, they had no good way to handle the EDI orders and trading partner compliance. The challenges included:
Orders were manually entered into their CRM, and the shipping was already automated with OzLINK. However, generating the UCC 128 labels was done as a separate process by accounting
Capturing tracking numbers required for the ASN was manual
A separate staging area for EDI orders was required as they awaited UCC 128 labels
Factorymation Gets “Industrial” Warehouse Automation with OzLINKOz Development
FactoryMation provides customers with high-quality industrial control products at extremely low prices.

decided to implement a new WMS system, they needed a robust warehouse bar code scanning solution to work efficiently and seamlessly with NetSuite. After
piloting with another NetSuite partner with limited success, FactoryMation implemented OzLINK, and they have never looked back.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

1. OzLINK Customer Success Story
Pyrotecnico
Lighting Up the Sky With OzLINK

proportionate - Rick Hoppe, CFO
Decrease in picking errors Pyrotecnico
Superb customer service and communication
The Challenge:
Pyrotecnico has recently expanded outside of their traditional home market
and is now serving customers throughout the United States and Canada.
Their ever-growing business has seen expansion due to internet sales and
a recent acquisition. Their growth in business made Pyrotecnio realize they
needed a better way to optimize customer order fulfillment. This included:
Managing peak volumes leading up to the Fourth of July without
adding proportional labor costs
Ensuring customer projects are assembled and shipped with the
right shells
Supporting expanding locations to service their growing customer
base
The Solution:
With a nationwide network of design offices, distributions centers, and
shipping locations, Pyrotecnico decided to implement NetSuite as their
ERP. They also selected OzLINK Mobile to manage the integration
between warehouse and fulfillment process, and to optimize the fulfillment
of their assemblies. The results from integrating OzLINK Mobile include:
Elimination of paper based picking, allowing Pyrotecnico to easily
fulfill their over 1200 assemblies leading up to the Fourth of July
100% accuracy of picking assemblies
An opportunity to add new locations rapidly, which helps to quickly
serve new customers
Pyrotecnico relies on OzLINK to keep their operation running efficiently.
