Paint, coatings and powder coatings supplier Jotun Group is expanding its use of IFS Applications ERP by adding trade management software, to replace customised functionality, and upgrading throughout to IFS Applications 7.5.
The upgrade comes in preparation for a global roll-out. Jotun has been an IFS user since 2003, with functionality covering financials, manufacturing, logistics and maintenance in its Scandinavian operations, and the new contract sees the organisation spending a further NKr 20 million on software and consulting services.
Morten Fon, Jotun’s CEO, says the company has already benefited from collaborating with IFS. “We have standardised our business processes and achieved better control, efficiency and collaboration.
“With IFS Applications 7.5, more of the solution will be based on standard functionality. This will enable us to further streamline and prepare for the planned global roll-out of the solution.
