Infor and Nippon Systemware Forge Alliance to Market Infor CloudSuite

Infor/Infor Japan K.K. and Nippon Systemware Co., Ltd. announced the provision of Infor CloudSuite Industrial, Infor’s enterprise resource planning (ERP) package for the manufacturing industry in a newly-inked partner agreement to help Japanese customers accelerate their digital journey. Under the partnership, NSW can sell or otherwise provide Infor CloudSuite Industrial as a supply chain solution (ERP) for managing sales and production planning. This will enable both Infor and NSW to provide even higher value-added solutions that span both the engineering chain and supply chain.

With multi-language, multi-currency, and multi-site support, Infor CloudSuite Industrial is an ERP package for manufacturing companies with global operations. It is already used in more than 6,000 locations globally, including over 1,400 locations in Asia Pacific and over 200 locations in Japan alone.

NSW has a long history of achievement and expertise across the engineering chain (product lifecycle management and product data management), managing data related to design and manufacturing in the manufacturing industry. In recent years, it has combined the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) to provide solutions for delivering instructions and collecting performance data in production environments, while supporting its customers through their digital transformation (DX).

This alliance is off to a promising start to fulfil current market and business needs, with the ERP package having already been trialed by a medical devices manufacturer in a project to rebuild its core business system, including its global sites. Going forward, Infor and NSW will continue collaborating in the areas of Infor CloudSuite Industrial and other solutions for the manufacturing industry as both parties help build core business solutions that support digital transformation for customers.

“We welcome Nippon Systemware to the Infor Partner Network. With Infor’s continued commitment to deliver finely-tuned, industry-specific solutions in the cloud to help our customers maximise efficiencies and accelerate growth, and NSW’s years of experience in the manufacturing industry in Japan, we are confident that our combined strengths can help to accelerate digital transformation in the manufacturing industry here,” says Shinya Miura, country manager & vice president, Infor Japan K.K.

“We are excited about the partner agreement with Infor. This partnership will enable us to offer a comprehensive range of solutions for the manufacturing industry, covering both the engineering and supply chains. Furthermore, together with Infor, we will provide high-value-added services to our customers in the manufacturing industry by leveraging synergies with our strength in IoT, AI and embedded software development,” says Takeshi Yamada, executive corporate officer, Nippon Systemware Co., Ltd.
