Phoenix will deploy IFS’ web portals and supply chain, service management, financial, and business performance applications at its plant in Edmonton, Alberta.
“Phoenix Reman Group is the second Deere subsidiary to choose IFS Applications, following several successful implementations at John Deere Forestry sites in North America,” said Cindy Jaudon, president of IFS North America. “We are pleased to extend our relationship with Deere and look forward to partnering with Phoenix to further enhance its service management processes.”
Industrial manufacturing is one of IFS’ targeted vertical markets. IFS has a broad customer base in the industry, focusing on medium- to large-size manufacturers that need support for complex order-driven and mixed-mode manufacturing across the extended enterprise. With strong support for project management, engineering, constraint-based scheduling, product configuration, and after-sale support, IFS’ business solution helps companies improve quality, contain costs, and improve their competitive position in manufacturing industry segments such as machinery, defense, fabricated metal products, and plastic products. Industrial manufacturing companies also benefit from IFS’ lifecycle management solution, which goes beyond product lifecycle management (PLM) to provide better integration and management of three critical business areas—products, customers, and resources—throughout their lifecycles.
IFS customers in the industrial manufacturing industry include Deere & Co., Roper, Dresser-Rand, Gehl, Star Cutter, Remmele Engineering, and Johnson Pump.
