CASE STUDY: Zimmer Biomet automates consumer usage tracking
Zimmer Biomet’s Shannon operations focus on the cleaning, polishing, finishing and packaging of joint replacement components. Consumables such as gloves, grinding wheels and polishing belts are used daily and form a substantial, but unmeasurable part of the joint production unit cost.
Tracking this usage was done manually through Microsoft Excel involving extensive data setup and import. It was impossible to determine the exact number of consumables used. Zimmer Biomet engaged Zing Technology to automate this labour-intensive, manual data input process.

What is PaaS?
In our new website, we talk about our PaaS offering. But what is PaaS? Here we give you the lowdown in the least techy way possible!
Platform as a Service or PaaS is one of the many “as a Service” offerings around. In principle “as a Service” means pay-as-you-go for the software service you use.
But it also means that the technology you are using is hosted in “the cloud”. Basically it’s not sitting on a computer or server in your office. Instead it lives in Microsoft Azure or the AWS clouds.
