Swiss polymer metering and mixing specialist DOPAG Group selects IFS Applications


IFS chosen to support core business processes and enhance business transparency

IFS (http://www.ifsworld.com/), the global enterprise applications company,
announces that DOPAG (http://www.dopag.com/), part of the Hilger u. Kern Group
and a leading manufacturer of metering and mixing systems for single and multi
-component polymers, has selected IFS
Applications™ (http://www.ifsworld.com/en/solutions/ifs-applications/) to
modernize and streamline its operations. The order is valued in excess of € 1.2
million.
Following several years of successful growth, Swiss-based DOPAG realized that
its legacy ERP solution was not able to keep up with its current business needs,
and despite heavy customization, was performing poorly. DOPAG wanted a solution
with strong project management functionality that would not only meet current
business needs, but would be agile enough to adapt to change in the future.
After assessing a number of ERP vendors, DOPAG selected IFS Applications.

The company will implement IFS to support core business processes that include:
financials, HR, project management (including project reporting), manufacturing
(including shop floor reporting and IFS Manufacturing Visualizer) maintenance,
supply chain (including warehouse data collection), sales and support, business
analytics, quality management and assurance, CRM (including sales configurator
functionality), document management, and service management.

”We needed greater integration and transparency in our enterprise software; and
we absolutely wanted a standard solution,” Holger Fender, General Manager, DOPAG
said. “We opted for IFS Applications because the solution met all our demands as
through standard functionality while also offering the requisite performance at
an attractive price. Furthermore, the IFS team had a clear understanding of our
business demands.”

“Signing DOPAG is further recognition of the benefits offered by IFS
Applications to manufacturers, an increasing number of whom are choosing IFS
solutions to become more agile and better meet the challenges of today’s
business. We look forward to a long and fruitful collaboration with DOPAG,” said
Peter Höhne, Vice President Sales & Marketing, IFS Europe Central.
