Pole Zero Goes Live on IFS Applications in Seven Months
IFS has announced that Pole/Zero has gone live on IFS Applications enterprise resource planning (ERP) software in only seven months.
Pole/Zero’s West Chester, Ohio location is now live and running IFS Applications Financials, Human Resources, Sales & Support, Engineering, Manufacturing and Distribution components. It also has future plans of implementing IFS’ CRM module in 2009.
Pole/Zero designs and manufactures radio frequency products that are used in military applications. It began the search for an ERP system because its legacy system could not handle the company’s plans for rapid growth, and the system required many additional custom software packages to fulfill all its business needs. In order to streamline its systems and increase productivity Pole/Zero turned to IFS Applications.
“The use of IFS Applications will allow us to disseminate information faster, reduce our paper use, and make our approval processes more efficient,” Pole/Zero IT Manager Jeff Miller said. “This integrated system will reduce duplication of data entry and simplify maintenance of our now centralized data. Additionally, our new ability to attach supporting documentation to objects within IFS Applications conveniently puts essential documentation just a few clicks away.”
