The agility of components
The use of components in IFS Applications gives you faster payback and one of the lowest total costs of ownership (TCO) on the market. IFS was the first company to build a true component-based business application, designed to enable step-by-step implementations. IFS Applications has made “big-bang” implementations obsolete. You can deploy only the functionality that you need right away. And as your business expands or changes, you can easily add components. Watch "The Benefits of SOA" in the Video Centre

Because IFS Service-Orientated Component Architecture is an open design based on industry standards, other applications and point solutions can easily access information and trigger functionality in IFS Applications.
