ERP on IFS Cloud
IFS Cloud is one of our two core offerings: an ERP for companies with assets, projects and field crews, from energy and manufacturing to construction and services. We implement every IFS module, from finance and procurement to asset management and field service, and support the system after go-live. We connect equipment to the ERP through ICONICS.

- IFS Cloud rollout: finance, procurement, inventory, production, projects
- IFS EAM: asset and maintenance management
- IFS FSM: field crew scheduling

Common questions
How long does an IFS Cloud rollout take?
The first phase usually takes 3 to 9 months, depending on the number of modules, sites and users and on how ready the data is. We give an exact plan after the diagnostic stage.
What does it cost?
The cost is the IFS Cloud subscription plus implementation work. The subscription depends on users and modules; the work depends on configuration, integrations and data migration. After the diagnostic stage we give an estimate and a five-year cost of ownership.
Can we keep 1C?
Yes. Often 1C stays for statutory accounting and tax reporting while IFS runs procurement, inventory, production, maintenance and management accounting. The two systems are integrated so nothing is entered twice.
Cloud or our own servers?
IFS Cloud can run in the cloud or on the company’s own servers. The choice depends on data-residency requirements, IT policy and budget. We compare the options at the design stage.
Do we have to roll out every module at once?
No. Most companies start with finance, procurement and inventory, or with asset management, and add other modules in later phases. It is one platform, so new modules work with the data already in it.
What happens after go-live?
In the first weeks after go-live we stay close to users and fix whatever gets in their way. After that comes support under a contract with clear response times, IFS updates and changes for new needs.
