ScandiNova Set for Powers Ahead with the Infor Cloud

Infor®, the industry cloud company, announced that Swedish ScandiNova Systems AB (ScandiNova) has selected Infor CloudSuite Industrial Enterprise to help unify and standardise its operational and manufacturing processes. Delivered via multi-tenant cloud, powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS), the system will be deployed by local Infor partner Midport Scandinavia.

ScandiNova develops, manufactures and sells pulse modulators and radio frequency units with high power levels that have a key function in applications such as radiotherapy, scientific research, cargo scanning and weather radar. ScandiNova is growing rapidly and needs to deepen the use of enterprise resource planning (ERP) and business intelligence.

The company was looking for a solution to bring a commonality to its processes across all business sites, planning to unify and standardise systems to create a platform from which to pursue further growth.

Following a tender process, ScandiNova selected Midport with the Infor CloudSuite industry-leading manufacturing ERP system based on Infor LN. The solution’s ability to handle complex processes and its industry-specific functionality set it apart from the competition, representing a truly global solution that can deliver the level of business agility that ScandiNova seeks to achieve. A multi-tenant cloud deployment was also a crucial factor in ScandiNova’s decision, ensuring the business can benefit from continuous updates with minimal administrative burden on the in-house IT team, as well as enabling the swift on-boarding of new entities.

“ScandiNova has a unique product with industry-leading performance, but our day-to-day struggle is very similar to that of other manufacturing companies,” comments Per Benkowski, ScandiNova’s IT manager. “With Midport and Infor, we strive for a standardized solution in an industry-leading ERP system. The move to a new ERP system is very much a change process and, with Midport and Infor, we got a well-developed and documented implementation project already in the tender process. This gave us confidence in Infor CloudSuite as a product and Midport as an integration supplier. This was the main difference between different systems and suppliers.”

“We are pleased that ScandiNova has chosen Midport and Infor's ERP solution. The decision confirms that Midport’s experience and expertise in a project-centric industry, together with Infor’s modern multi-tenant cloud ERP solutions offer the industry-specific functionality needed to simplify and streamline operations, in combination with the agility and flexibility to support even the most ambitious growth plans,” says Niels Mejer of Midport. “This is an important win for us and Infor in the region as it confirms our common strategy to grow our footprints in the Nordics and especially in Sweden.”

“We are happy to welcome such an exciting and innovative company to the Infor family. With the Infor CloudSuite, ScandiNova has chosen a true multi-tenant solution to empower the move toward higher agility in manufacturing. We are proud to be part of this transformation,” concludes Henning Dransfeld, Infor’s industry lead for the high tech & electronics industry.
