Cineworld
Watching Cineworld thrive through streamlined operations, enhanced Inventory & an improved IT estate.
Challenge
Cineworld, established in 1995, grew into a major European cinema chain with 80+ UK complexes and operations across ten countries. Facing inventory discrepancies and IT management challenges, Apoyar implemented automated invoice matching, advanced asset tracking, and remote monitoring solutions. These innovations streamlined operations, enhanced efficiency, and supported Cineworld's digital transformation.
Solution
Apoyar transformed Cineworld's operations through three key solutions: a rule-based application for automated invoice approval, an advanced CMDB accessible via web and iOS, and custom ASP.Net web services for remote monitoring. These integrations enable automated payment processing, comprehensive IT asset management, and real-time system monitoring through Nagios Enterprise.
Result
Apoyar's solutions dramatically improved Cineworld's efficiency, reducing invoice processing staff from six to one while accelerating approvals from days to minutes. Real-time inventory monitoring enabled automated replenishment and streamlined capacity planning. Enhanced IT visibility allowed faster fault response, minimizing downtime and increasing customer satisfaction.
