Addressing unique challenges faced by retail businesses, MAIstro’s platform and Wachter aim to provide always-on real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance of store appliances with the integration of event-driven data through EnergyScene, MaintenanceScene and event SceneMarks. EnergyScene records appliances’ temperatures, power usage, lighting and signage usages for comprehensive energy management utilizing advanced machine learning capabilities for individual stores, while MaintenanceScene captures appliance statuses and conditions to store in the cloud data lake where advanced AI analytics can be applied to current and historical data, streamlining maintenance processes. Additionally, SceneMarks aids in operations by detecting any unusual video images occurring in facilities, including refrigerator doors left open, customer slips and falls and even count of people waiting at cashiers. These types of AI-driven data empower retailers to make insightful decisions, elevating overall business performance and customer satisfaction.
This collaboration, backed by Microsoft and S&I Corp., has been successfully implemented in commercial SaaS products at major retail businesses, including over 15,000 GS25 retail convenience stores in South Korea. They saw a transformative shift in energy cost saving and streamlined maintenance operations by 10% savings in energy cost and 17% reduction in AS calls. As the system integrators, S&I Corporation—a total building solution provider and space management expert with unrivaled level of technology—plays an integral role in remote management of these retail stores.
