Dallas, TX, December 05, 2018 --(PR.com)-- "Inflection Point: How the Convergence of Cloud, Mobility, Apps, and Data Will Shape the Future of Business," the highly regarded technology transformation book and Number One selling book in its category on Kindle, has now been released in paperback to meet the growing demand for a less expensive option for the book.

“Since being originally released by Pearson FT Press, I have been overwhelmed with requests to publish the book in paperback at a reduced rate, specifically to open the book to a younger demographic that are still in college. The Kindle version and hard back copies are also available online through multiple outlets, while Amazon.com remains the primary bookseller venue,” said Scott Stawski, author and Chief Revenue Officer, Applications at DXC Technology.

"Inflection Point: How the Convergence of Cloud, Mobility, Apps, and Data Will Shape the Future of Business," defines how many industries are entering a new round of business disruption driven by technology. To thrive in this environment, businesses must harness this technology to implement a new business strategy and operating model. This book continues to have C-Level executives listening and learning new ways to create a digital environment that moves at the speed of light.

Stawski explains the strategic implications of today’s new technology paradigms, helping the readers reshape their organizational and operational strategies; to embrace and profit from them. He shows the reader how technology and other factors are driving a radical new round of disintermediation, reintermediation, and disruption–and what that means to companies across all business sectors.

When asked about the book, Al Ries, Chairman at Ries & Ries and best-selling author of Positioning: The Battle for your Mind stated “Batten down the hatches! The IT department is under assault from the most unlikely of sources: one of its key suppliers. In a compelling book, Scott Stawski formerly of Hewlett Packard Enterprise predicts that the IT department of the future will buy no hardware or software and will shrink to a fraction of its current size. In its place, IT will become a broker of services supplied from the cloud. It’s hard to argue with the powerful message of this well-written book.”

GeneFluidics Selected as One of Five Finalists for Antimicrobial Resistance Diagnostic (AMR) Challenge Step 2

$

0

Duarte, CA, December 05, 2018 --(PR.com)-- GeneFluidics is pleased to announce that they have been selected as one of five finalists for the Antimicrobial Resistance Diagnostic (AMR) Challenge Step 2 by National Institute of Health (NIH). The main purpose of the Antimicrobial Resistance Rapid Challenge is to incentivize the development of in vitro diagnostic tests that would be of significant clinical and public health utility to combat the development and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria or diagnostic tests that distinguish between bacterial and viral infections. From the group of five Step 2 finalists, up to three winners will share at least $19 million. Winners will be announced on July 31, 2020.

Link to AMR Diagnostic Challenge Finalists
GeneFluidics is the only group selected for both NIAID antimicrobial resistance diagnostics projects (NIAID antimicrobial resistance diagnostics) and as finalists for the NIH AMR Challenge Step 2. “Antimicrobial resistance is a serious global health threat that is undermining our ability to effectively detect, treat and prevent infections,” said NIAID Director Anthony S. Fauci, M.D. “One way we can combat drug resistance is by developing enhanced diagnostic tests that rapidly identify the bacteria causing an infection and their susceptibility to various antimicrobials. This will help physicians determine the most effective treatments for infected individuals and thereby reduce the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics that can contribute to the drug resistance problem.” GeneFluidics has also finalized the validation and clinical testing plans for our first FDA submission, and clinical testing at Children's Hospital Los Angeles, Mayo Clinic and Johns Hopkins will be initiated in 4Q 2018 to support its planned application for 510(k) regulatory clearance to market ProMax® in the U.S. The Company expects to complete the study for submission in 1Q 2019.

About Antimicrobial Resistance Diagnostic (AMR)

The emergence and rapid spread of resistant bacteria has become a serious public health concern worldwide. Delayed antimicrobial therapy significantly increases mortality in high-risk infections with a particularly strong association with septic shock. Therefore, antimicrobial agents are often injudiciously used without any evidence-based microbiological confirmation. Antibiotic consumption is strongly linked to the emergence and dissemination of antibiotic-resistant bacteria strains in several epidemiological studies. According to CDC’s recent publication, an estimated 30% of outpatient oral antibiotic prescriptions may have been inappropriate, and up to 70% of the “appropriate” prescriptions still require improvements in selection, dosage and duration to delay the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The vast majority of antibiotic prescriptions are made by physicians outside the hospital setting without the use of a sophisticated diagnostic device.

About GeneFluidics Rapid ID/AST Lab Automation System
The UtiMax Lab Automation System is a fully automated rapid diagnostic system for the identification of uropathogens directly from urine samples. Identification (ID) and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) are performed by the UtiMax™ Lab Automation System with a reagent kit and disposable sensor array chip. UtiMax ID/AST is an electrochemical-based sandwich hybridization test to quantify species-specific ribosomal 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Each sample is lysed chemically prior to hybridization at high stringency. A built-in multi-channel potentiostat reads the electrical current from the steady-state enzymatic cycling amplification: signal is proportional to the bound 16S rRNA content from lysate and reported in ranges of colony forming units (CFU) per milliliter through an established calibration curve.

A compact and rapid pathogen identification (ID) and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) can address both the unnecessary use and overuse of antibiotics, and therefore effectively reduce antibiotic microbial resistance. GeneFluidics' overall goal is to deliver a molecular diagnostic platform that is capable of rapid diagnosis of common bacterial infections in as short as 30 minutes and profiling their antibiotic resistance in as short as 90 minutes. Their product will lead to more rational use of antibiotics and will reduce the development and spread of multidrug-resistant pathogens. Their goal is to obtain the first FDA clearance of UtiMax, a rapid urinary tract infection ID/AST test currently in the pilot production stage, through an FDA de novo submission. A follow-up product line, BsiMax (with additional feature of lysis centrifugation), can process whole blood samples for bloodstream infections with a limit of detection (LOD) < 4 CFU/mL. Both UtiMax and BsiMax can be performed by our robotic liquid handling systems, with associated reagent kits and sensor chips.

Intended Use – BsiMax and UtiMax are rapid diagnostics tests to identify blood borne pathogens (BsiMax) and uropathogens (UtiMax) directly from patients’ whole blood or fresh urine samples. The BsiMax and UtiMax ID/AST tests can quantify the unique species-specific nucleic acid sequence associated with each target pathogen without using PCR and conduct antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) without a need of obtaining a clinical isolate or positive blood or urine culture sample.

About GeneFluidics
GeneFluidics was incorporated in 2000 to develop a fast, accurate, and simple testing system for improving worldwide healthcare. By integrating novel molecular analysis and lab automation technologies, the company's revolutionary platform enables complex tests that are normally performed only by skilled technicians in a laboratory to be performed by anyone, anywhere. GeneFluidics is committed to improving the quality of human life with advanced engineering and molecular analysis technologies.

Husky Brings to Market Two Environmentally-Friendly Products to Their Family of Products at the Same Time That Their Technical Service Engineer Adds to His Family

Pacific, MO, December 06, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Husky, that already has a fine line-up of complimentary products, just added two more: Oil Baron and Oil Baron Plus. Like a student who loves chemistry class, Paul Nilsen, Husky’s Technical Service Engineer assigned to these new products, is excited to demonstrate how they work using something called microbial action.

He, along with Brad Baker, Husky’s Executive Vice President, are nothing short of giddy when they talk about the two new Oil Baron products. Paul could not wait to squeeze some oil onto a granite sample board and then add a diluted amount of Oil Baron.

The mixture started to bubble and pop. Carbon Dioxide was released into the air and water remained.

When the bubbling stops, no special hazardous waste disposal is required for what was left over. A simple concept with far-reaching ramifications. Oil Baron is used to clean unsightly, unsafe or hazardous messes using floor scrubbers, pressure washers or mops.

The product is also great for use in an Emergency Spill kit -- because it makes a gas spill non-flammable very quickly.

As Husky moved on to the Oil Baron Plus product, Paul coolly checked his phone. He had an important reason to stay connected: his wife was about ready to give birth to their child.

Although he was allowed go home to be with her, he wanted to finish the demonstration, albeit at a record pace.

Paul explained that Oil Baron Plus removes the toughest hydrocarbon (oil, gas/diesel, tar) stains on most hard, industrial surfaces. Paul warned that one must be careful when using this product as it will turn an asphalt/gravel road into just gravel and, if it gets on your car, will dissolve the paint.

Key market segments for these products include the petroleum dispensing industry (gas stations, convenience stores, truck stops, petroleum product distributors, airports, etc.) and the automotive repair industry (car repair businesses, truck/auto dealers or service centers, oil change shops, etc.) and any other commercial/residential application where petroleum messes are an issue. More detailed information is at the company's web site under husky.com/husky/oil-baron/oil-baron/ including explanation videos and technical specifications.

Predictive Costing – Application Possibilities for Artificial Intelligence in Cost Management

$
0
0

Potsdam, Germany, December 07, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Over 100 international costing experts met on November 29 at the 11th FACTON User Conference in Stuttgart, Germany. “Predictive Costing” was the theme of the event, where guests discussed the latest topics: From artificial intelligence and related application possibilities in product costing, to smart factories and costing electronic components, all the way to advances in the FACTON EPC Suite and insights into best practices developed by FACTON customers.

“Enterprise Product Costing has become increasingly important to globally operating companies in recent years. We are happy to facilitate this process with our User Conference. This year marks the 11th time we have hosted the event,” says Christoph Müller, VP Customer Services at FACTON GmbH and conference moderator. “But we feel it is important not only to share views on best practices in product costing, but also to offer a forum for presenting and discussing fresh, forward-thinking and even somewhat unconventional ideas and thus offering a suggestion or two on change and innovation.”

Artificial intelligence drives innovation
FACTON CEO Alexander M. Swoboda built on these ideas in his opening keynote speech on “Predictive Costing,” which he delivered to the over 100 visitors to the 11th FACTON User Conference on November 29, 2018. First, he emphasized the highlights FACTON experienced during the past year, such as the company’s relocation to Lake Jungfernsee in Potsdam and the remarkable growth of the FACTON community. Alongside further development of the FACTON EPC solution, the topic of artificial intelligence (AI) – which had already been touched upon last year – moved into the spotlight. “We definitely see AI as an innovation driver that no sector will be able avoid much longer, including product costing,” explains Swoboda. “This is why last year we not only launched the 'AI for Predictive Costing' initiative to actively promote the topic together with the costing community, but also sharpened our focus on possible use cases and initial prototypes.”

FACTON Product Management presentations centered on specific application possibilities. The team not only introduced the FACTON EPC roadmap, it also illustrated the flexible application possibilities afforded by the FACTON EPC platform and FACTON’s innovations in real-time simulations of profitability calculations, project costing and easy ways to create a wide range of cost models using the FACTON Cost Model Designer.

Electronic component costing
Electronic component costing was another subject that required its own session. After all: There is virtually no other sector with shorter development cycles and more complex products than the electronics industry. Moreover, the share of electronics is growing in every industry sector. This is why it is important to build the requisite expertise early on to ensure costs remain under control. To help keep track of electronics costs, a costing software package must offer a breadth of features such as the ability to easily identify, manipulate and edit electronic components or access current machine data on electronics manufacturing along with new processes and test procedures.

Smart factory as a service
The IT consulting firm MHP Management- und IT-Beratung GmbH expanded on the topic of increasingly complex production chains with the level of individualization. The problem: The industry has optimized its production systems for series and mass production over the past few decades, but the trend is still moving towards increasingly individualized and flexible small series production. Using a smart factory as a service enables growth-oriented companies to focus on their own core competencies, develop customer-centric products and outsource production as a service to a specialist in this area.

By users for users
This year’s practice-oriented presentation was delivered by Giesecke+Devrient, a globally operating company specializing in physical and digital security technologies. FACTON EPC has been used for four years in Should Costing as early as the development phase in the sector “Currency Technology” – which, among other things, develops machines that produce uncounterfeitable banknotes. Due to the high level of variability and low quantities, product costing was a confusing and complex task before the software was implemented. Now FACTON EPC makes it possible to identify savings potential early on thanks to standardization, knowledge retention and a valid body of data. Costing expenditure was cut and product costs were slashed.

The history of the digital computer from its inception to the future
After participants had spent the day discovering what the future will bring, Professor Dr.-Ing. habil. Horst Zuse, the son of Konrad Zuse (1910-1995), the inventor of the first freely programmable computer to use Boolean logic and binary floating-point numbers, concluded the event with an enthralling history lecture. Konrad Zuse completed the Z3 in May 1941 in his small workshop in Berlin-Kreuzberg. Horst Zuse’s presentation clearly illustrated his father’s contribution to the development of computers. For example, not many people know that Konrad Zuse founded a computer company in 1949 that manufactured more than 800 units. It was the first business to commercially produce computers. Horst Zuse also acknowledged other scientists and institutions that were involved in creating the digital computer and are currently developing new models.

AdAdapted Drives Sales for Good Day Chocolate Supplement Brand with Mobile Advertising Add-to-List Solution

$

Ann Arbor, MI, December 07, 2018 --(PR.com)-- In a recent advertising campaign, a chocolate-based supplement company, Good Day Chocolate (GDC), saw an increase in sales specifically connected to AdAdapted’s Add-to-List mobile advertising solution. “While running AdAdapted mobile campaigns we saw our sales go up in specific markets and saw those same market sales go down when we weren’t using AdAdapted,” stated Denise Day the Director of Marketing at Good Day Chocolate. “We’re excited to partner with this type of strategic advertising company that has a technology which clearly positively impacts our sales.”

The Good Day Chocolate / AdAdapted campaign was targeted at promoting sales for Good Day Chocolate’s new Kid’s Supplements specifically at a large, well-known retailer. The initial campaign more than doubled GDC sales in certain markets when the AdAdapted Add-to-List ad units were running. “We know our technology works at targeting the right person at the right time and getting products added to list, but to see this kind of foot-traffic and results directly correlated with the start and stop of our ad units is really exciting,” stated Molly McFarland, CRO and Co-Founder of AdAdapted.

Good Day Chocolate is a unique, nationally recognized brand that is seeing double-digit growth in grocery and online, and is launching into mass, drug and convenience chains across the country. The brand was founded in 2010 by Andrew Goldman, M.D., a prominent Facial Plastic Surgeon and Ear, Nose & Throat doctor. Dr. Goldman set out to create a more responsibly dosed dietary supplement that is easy to take and tastes delicious. Good Day Chocolate offers vitamins and supplements for both kids and adults.

AdAdapted’s Add-to-List solution provides ads to a proprietary network of list-building consumers allowing them to add the promoted product, in this case Good Day Chocolate supplements, directly to their preferred shopping list app. With 92% of consumers’ time in mobile occurring in-app, 80% of purchase decisions influenced by a mobile device at-shelf and 91% of CPG products still purchased in-store, the Add-to-List solution has become the leading mobile advertising approach for CPG brands and retailers. Furthermore, hundreds of well-known CPG brands are also seeing astounding results and increased sales with the use of the AdAdapted Add-to-List solution.

About Good Day Chocolate
Based in Boulder, Colorado, Good Day Chocolate (www.gooddaychocolate.com) started in 2010 when co-founder, Andy Goldman, M.D. began crafting lollipops with functional medicine for kids who struggled to swallow their medication following tonsil surgery. Dr. Goldman’s idea evolved into mixing premium supplements with Fair-Trade chocolate, because studies showed that absorption could be improved by ingesting functional ingredients inside of a whole food like chocolate. Fast forward to 2014 and Good Day Chocolate was born when they launched Sleep, Energy and Calm products for adults nationwide. Since the launch, they introduced Turmeric for anti-inflammation and Probiotic to promote digestive health. Most recently, they introduced their new line of supplements for children, including Multivitamin, Probiotic, Sleep and Calm.

About AdAdapted
AdAdapted (www.adadapted.com) is the number one add-to-list mobile advertising and insights solution for CPG brands and the agencies that represent CPG brands. AdAdapted offers CPG brands the ability to directly target their primary consumers in the apps they use to plan and shop.
