Leading European Manufacturing Company Selects IFS

A leading European manufacturing company has signed a contract to use IFS Applications business software to support its operations.

Within the framework of the project, which has started, IFS will provide consulting services and IFS Applications licenses with an expected total value, including options, of approx. US $2,5 million. Contracted license revenue amounts to approx. US $700 000 in 2008.

Manufacturing is one of IFS’ seven targeted market segments. IFS has a broad customer base in the industry, focusing on medium to large-sized manufacturers that need support for complex order-driven and mixed-mode manufacturing across the extended enterprise. With strong support for project management, engineering, constraint-based scheduling, product configuration, and after-sales support, IFS’ component-based business solutions are designed to help companies improve quality, contain costs, and improve their competitive position in manufacturing industry segments such as machinery, defence, fabricated metal products, and plastics. Manufacturing companies also benefit from IFS’ lifecycle management solution, which goes beyond product lifecycle management (PLM) to provide better integration and management of three critical business areas—products, customers, and resources—throughout their lifecycles.
