Project-based industries are among the largest in the global economy. Whatever field of endeavor project-based industries ply their trade

in, they are bound together by enormous complexities and risks. That is why they choose to have the industry’s most highly developed solution at their disposal.

The following customer stories represent a selection of businesses that we have collaborated with in determining and implementing a project-based solution that is perfect for their requirements.

The tremendous complexities faced by EPCI companies make it absolutely essential for them to deploy a project-driven, integrated solution that provides them with the functionality to handle the entire lifecycle of a project from early design right up to project follow-up.

In addition to meeting that criterion, IFS enabled Rosenberg to standardize its IT platform so that information is always up-to-date, uniformly structured, and accurate. So project planning, control and follow-up are much quicker and more secure.

Having IFS on your doorstep can mean the difference between hitting deadlines rather than dead time. And in a business as cost-conscious as Seadrill’s, that is absolutely vital.

Because of IFS’ local presence, its team was able to respond to situations as they actually happened. This also made it possible to build an extremely close collaboration with Seadrill. IFS’ experience also proved invaluable in assisting Seadrill to fully explore its potential. The IFS team was on hand to talk and demonstrate the advantages of a new systematic approach to business, which Seadrill adopted into the way it operates.

Some dream about it. And others actually do it. The ability to grow your existing business by implementing

new strategies that give your company added value in the eyes of your customers.

Hamworthy Gas System recognized that it had the opportunity to develop several new business streams, but its existing IT set-up could not support the initiatives.

Attracted by IFS’ project-oriented industry knowledge with particular reference to EPCI and the range of the solution’s functionality, Hamworthy tasked IFS to provide it with a solution that enabled the company to make more of what it has.

When you’re simultaneously running a number of big and complex projects, the ability to minimize risk is absolutely critical. So Damen, the largest shipbuilders in the Netherlands, formulated a plan called Dawn, with the sole intention of standardizing processes, systems and data throughout the organization.

To successfully implement the plan, Damen needed to find a solution that could provide the highest level of integration and functionality together with a user interface that is so user-friendly it actually encourages user participation. It seemed like a tall order until Damen took a close look at IFS Applications 7.5 with the new Enterprise Explorer interface—then it all became surprisingly clear.

When Heerema decided to become a global EPCI player, the first thing it had to do was replace its existing legacy IT solution. Why?

Because it was composed of many different home-grown software solutions which didn’t have what it takes to support the new strategy.

So Heerema listed all its requirements, mainly from a func-tional point of view. The company needed a solution that was completely integrated and would support all of its core processes.

Heerema drew up a short list and began to check references. Then it held a workshop with an elaborate business case. It soon became apparent that one vendor had all the functionality it needed. All the experience to ensure the implementation phase ran smoothly.

And the commitment to the industry that said “We’re here for the long haul.”

It is true to say that there are a number of IT vendors that offer ERP solutions designed for use by project-based industries. But it is equally true to say that there is only one vendor that possesses industry knowledge that has been accumulated over 20 years.

And it is precisely that experience together with class-leading functionality that made Grenland chose IFS.

Grenland now has an industry-specific solution which has helped to streamline its processes, that provides it with a better overview at both project and corporate level, and which gives the company information that enables it to make better decisions.

Make no mistake, meeting the standards required to become certified in Earned Value Management (EVM) is tough. Extremely tough. And only shipbuilders that meet these high standards of management methodology make the cut when being considered for US government projects. So when Todd Pacific Shipyards went looking for an ERP solution, it wanted the very best.

Todd chose IFS as its ERP solution because in addition to it being specifically developed for project-based companies, it delivers all the functionality within a totally integrated package necessary to EVM procedures. It enables Todd to produce such in-depth and accurate reports that even the military are happy with and to secure more orders from the most demanding of customers.

Manufacturers involved in engineering and fabrication of capital equipment for major infrastructure projects need excellent visibility across the project lifecycle so they can plan project timelines of a year or more and proactively manage them in real time.

With IFS Applications, TLT-Babcock was able to reduce project lead times and get a better handle on project costs and revenue by degree of completion. A lot can change over a year’s time. But with IFS Applications, TLT-Babcock can predict and manage cost to completion over a year or even longer, allowing the company to execute contracts on or under budget. TLT-Babcock has been running IFS Applications since 2002, and is now using more of its enterprise system’s advanced features as it expands its business globally.

A LOT CAN HAPPEN IN 365 DAyS

TLT-BABCOCK manufactures axial fans and equipment for utilities, tunnels, mining and

What makes some partnerships memorable?In a word—chemistry.The fact is that companies, like people, feel more comfortable

when they pick a partner that is on the same page. So when BW Offshore began discussions with IFS with a view to buying a future-proof ERP solution and discovered that IFS, in addition to IT know-how, had a deep knowledge of its industry too, the company knew the chemistry between it and IFS was right. The result is that BW Offshore now has an industry-specific, totally integrated ERP solution and a partner it can rely on.
