Serimax, a welding company focusing on oil and gas industries, has selected IFS Applications to overhaul its information system and optimise the management and follow-up of projects carried out under extreme conditions.
IFS Applications was developed by the global enterprise applications company IFS. According to IFS, the agreement covers project and inventory management, sales, financial activities, and project execution. Implementation has begun in the U.S. and France, and will be rolled out across the rest of the group starting in 2010. IFS’s experience and references in the energy industry and the field of engineering, procurement and construction were deciding factors for Serimax.
The feature set of IFS Applications allows the company to model project tracking and integrate its scheduling and logistical data. IFS’s enterprise resource planning application offers several advantages, including enhanced profitability, improved management of equipment risks and deadlines, as well as easier and faster collection of customer receivables, said IFS.
The IFS Applications Project Management component allows Serimax to control all phases in the project lifecycle, improve communications and encourage information exchange between all parties involved, added IFS.
Amor Bekrar, president and CEO for France at IFS, said: IFS Applications provides the range of components Serimax needs to run its project-based business efficiently. We are the obvious choice for this kind of company working in an international environment.
