Modernizing supply chain analytics data and operational processes required technology based on software solutions provided by ERP vendors. The U.S. market has always been focused on innovation. However, despite business growth in the U.S., the manufacturing and supply chain sectors have seen significant gaps in digital systems based on electronic technology. Many operational processes on the shop floor in the production and in the U.S. supply chain are still performed by highly manual and reactive tasks. It leads to considerable consequences in lowering business productivity and directly impacts operating costs.

To meet business needs in a digital environment, manufacturing companies have implemented enterprise resource planning (ERP). Although ERP systems have become much more sophisticated over the years, they remain highly misaligned to business requirements.

IFS is an ERP provider that helps various industries transform their businesses and avoid unnecessary costs and risks that can influence progress. IFS provides proven and tactical steps to transform the supply chain and all business operations successfully. IFS is committed to working closely with its partners to better deal with the challenges arose from different business requirements. To bridge the gap between ERP and business processes, IFS has established partnerships with companies such as Novacura. Novacura’s solutions provides customized business processes without modifying the IFS system. IFS and Novacura users can better define the roadmap in their businesses and respond more flexibly to economic changes.

IFS Connect North America and Novacura

In 2023, IFS held a series of conferences called IFS Connect. The main reason for this series was to enable IFS users and partners to meet annually. IFS Connect was organized in different parts of the world, from Europe to the Middle East, and brought the IFS network to life.

Novacura, as a long-time partner, has already been able to attend and visit several IFS events in 2023. From Sweden, BeNeLux, and the U.S., we had the pleasure of talking to Novacura and IFS customers about essential aspects of their industries.

As part of the latest edition of IFS Connect, held June 13-14 in North America, in Minneapolis, NA, Novacura had the chance to take on the role of gold sponsor. Our representatives, Jerry Martin, Paul Phillips, Greg Warner, and Jansen Davidson, were able to share their expertise on the best possible approaches with Novacura’s mobile solutions for IFS.

IFS Connect North America was organized at US Bank Stadium, a nationally-recognized enclosed stadium in downtown Minneapolis, that is home to the Minnesota Vikings of the NFL.
