IFS Consulting
Most IFS environments have more potential than the teams using them realise. Before a single configuration changes, you need to know exactly where the gap is.
Only using 60% of what your IFS environment has to offer? Departments running on different data? Decisions made on gut feeling instead of facts? That is where we start.
Every part of this process delivers something concrete. You see the progress, you create value, and you always know where things stand.
How mature are your processes, data, and technology, really? A focused scan measures this and benchmarks it against what the latest IFS Cloud version can actually do. We connect directly to your IFS database and visualize your processes based on actual transaction data before we make a single recommendation.
We lay your scorecard against comparable companies in your industry. That shows you not just where you stand, but how wide the gap is to the leaders in your sector.
Deliverable: a business maturity scorecard that shows your strengths, risks, and opportunities.
We look closer at the processes with the most potential return. Which standard IFS features connect directly to your business goals?
Deliverable: a business value overview with a priority matrix. You can see at a glance which changes deliver the most value.
The business case from step 3 drives the roadmap. All insights get turned into concrete recommendations, covering before, during, and after the migration. We split this into two tracks: the technical upgrade and the functional improvements.
Deliverable: a visual roadmap and an executive summary on a single slide.
Assumptions are expensive. That is why we use tools that give a direct view of how your organization actually operates. The DeepValue tool connects directly to your database and maps your actual process flow from transaction data. No interview-based assumptions.
The IFS scope tool shows which processes fit the IFS standard and where adjustments are needed. Green: your process maps one-to-one. Orange: a match is possible after a configuration change. Red: a deliberate decision is needed. Everything is visible before you start, with no surprises during implementation.
The standard approach is to upgrade the technology first and look at processes afterward. We run both tracks at the same time. While technical preparations are underway, we are already working with you on the functional design. That shortens the timeline and gets you to ROI faster.
The result: objective insight into your maturity, a concrete roadmap with business cases for every improvement step, and full alignment between IT and the business from day one.
