IFS Launches IFS Applications 7.5 for Global Business
SCHAUMBURG, Ill., October 15, 2007- IFS, the global enterprise applications company, today at its World Conference in Berlin, Germany, launched IFS Applications 7.5. The new release includes tools for multinational companies that need to capitalize on opportunities available in a constantly changing business environment. It has a single code base that easily adapts to all regulatory and language requirements for key markets, rather than multiple country-specific code bases which require separate support and upgrades.
Expansion into new markets is accelerated by in-house support and upgrades, along with the ability to make changes to the code base only once across the entire business.
"IFS Applications 7.5, which is service oriented architecture (SOA)-based, builds on seven generations of component-based applications," IFS CEO Alastair Sorbie said. "We've worked with customers to enhance the user experience as well as deliver real business benefits to improve productivity. Global companies need industry-specific functionality which will support growth and provide the agility they need to gain competitive advantage on the international stage."
IFS Applications 7.5 has several new features:
Enhanced tax handling, reporting and inventory management:
In addition to accommodating country-specific regulatory requirements and multiple languages, units are automatically recalculated and standardized across several locations, allowing more accurate global inventory information. In turn, organizations can make more informed decisions using reliable data and predict accurate sales and budget forecasts.
Risk management across multiple projects:
Components to support contract-management, from estimate to execution, including financial control and planning, provide total visibility. Risk minimizing measures allow the identification, flagging and ongoing assessment of key danger factors, so companies can counter these early with preventative measures.
Efficient solutions for global supply chain and mixed-mode operations:
New functionality allows companies to be more responsive to customer needs and the pressures of decreasing product lifecycles and increasing product variability. For example, IFS Applications 7.5 keeps track of key performance indicators (KPIs), such as delivery times across multiple locations, to ensure multi-site production is fast and reliable.
IFS Applications 7.5 became available for order October 11, 2007 and the first implementation project has already begun.
"We need to manage our supply chain across eighteen sites in eleven different countries," said Heinz Ensen, CIO Europe at Flint Group, one of the first customers to implement IFS Applications 7.5. "Executing this efficiently with IFS' multi-site planning capabilities means we are faster and more responsive to customers and also reduces our working capital. Being able to use different local units of measurement as well means we can ensure consistent and accurate data across regions."
