Customer Stories | Testimonial

Völkl Sports

Völkl

With manufacturing and R&D facilities in Straubing, Germany, Völkl Sports produces about 500,000 pairs of skis, 30,000 snowboards and 120,000 tennis rackets per year. Its products are available in more than 50 countries. Founded in 1923, Völkl is now part of the Marker Völkl Group headquartered in Baar/Zug, Switzerland, and has about 1,000 employees.

Without IFS Applications, our team couldn't satisfy the growing, mainly short-term, demands on the IT department. The old system took about 3 weeks to develop certain functionality. Now similar tasks take 1–3 days.
Gerold Fath, IT Manager Völkl Sports GmbH, Straubing

  

BENEFITS

  • More efficient financials, HR and distribution processes 
  • Easy access to information and greater transparency
  • Optimized information exchange between manufacturing and sales
  • Able to make more precise delivery promises
  • Higher productivity and lower costs with automated production control
At Top Speed into the Winter Sports Season
