Network Operation Center for Bangalore Budweiser office, India

Budweiser is the world’s largest beer brand produced by Anheuser-Busch InBev, a major Brazilian-Belgian beer corporation. The brand was founded by Adolphus Busch during 1876 in the USA. It comprises 30% rice along with barley malt, and hops and is one of the top sellers in the US. It is produced globally and available as both packaged and draught. It is rather light and less bitter, which is why it is regarded as refreshment by consumers.

Requirements

Video walls are the part of every Budweiser network operation center. Integrated with the BI system they control the entire production process, as well as monitor system processes and display alerts in real time. Strict adherence to all production stages: order, time and temperature are critical for the quality of the product. The total duration of the brewing lasts 103 days. Beer maturation process must necessarily take place in cold conditions, with the possibility to control the temperature. For this reason, the company needed software capable of seamlessly integrating with existing BI systems and a large number of sources, supporting 24/7 operation. Polywall software perfectly met all of the necessary requirements.
