IFS and Arcwide seamlessly unite multiple global sales and production operations across six countries for Jakob AG
With the company processing 80-100 shop orders a day, minor configurations to the system have enabled working in IFS overviews, allowing batches of 20 orders to be processed at a time, saving time and minimizing clicks.
IFS Cloud was implemented at Jakob AG by Arcwide. A joint venture between BearingPoint and IFS, Arcwide is an IFS Platinum Partner and the only provider of IFS-only solutions in the world. With innovative and practical solutions, Arcwide supports companies in optimizing their processes and strengthening their competitiveness.
We have 30 salespeople globally. Once we have IFS live across all our divisions, I expect the system will save each at least half an hour per day.
