As a new, well-capitalized venture, Torresol Energy had a unique opportunity. It had no installed base of technologies or applications. With a “clean sheet” in hand, it could choose the industrial software applications that best suited its diverse operations. Required functionality included that normally associated with engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) companies, as well as that needed by plant owner-operators. Torresol Energy chose IFS Applications because it is a single, integrated system that has relevance throughout a global asset’s lifecycle—from design and development through operations and maintenance. Torresol Energy is using IFS Applications components for financials, project management, document management, asset management and supply chain.
"We examined our business processes in light of the standardizations IFS offered. On the other hand, we have been able to automatically identify custom events and alerts based on our particular needs. It has brought clarity to our processes and made us more agile."
