IFS Supports Cognor Group
In the 1990s, when Złomrex (now Cognor) dealt exclusively with the purchase of scrap iron and nonferrous metals, there was no need to use dedicated management support tools. In the late 1990s, business expanded and the company began to sell custom products manufactured by steel mills.
Implementation of IFS, an ERP solution, is one of the most important IT projects in the Cognor Group (formerly Złomrex). The system has been implemented in all leading companies of the group since 2009.
“With the launch of IFS in Złomrex, Ferrostal and Walcownia in early 2007, and then in other entities, we have gained a lot of insight into the system and its implementation methodology, thanks to effective cooperation with IFS consultants. So, we weren’t afraid to implement the system on our own in the other companies.”
Chief Accountant and IT Director, Cognor S.A.
