IFS announces that Atlas Group, the third largest manufacturer of construction
chemicals in Europe and market leader in Poland, has selected IFS Applications
to streamline and optimize its business processes. The solution will be
implemented in all the main Atlas Group companies and branches in Poland.
Atlas Group consists of 18 business entities—including 4 overseas—16 plants with
modern production lines and 5 gypsum, anhydrite and quartz sand mines. The
company decided to invest in IFS Applications to support the company’s dynamic
growth.

The implementation will include all Atlas Group key areas of
operations, such as: financials, distribution, manufacturing, maintenance,
controlling elements, consolidation, trade management, B2B portals
(collaborative solutions), WMS, and document and quality management. The
solution will be implemented together with the new, intuitive IFS Enterprise
Explorer interface.

The total number of IFS Applications users within the
Atlas Group will be 730 and the system is expected to go live in January, 2013.
The company’s future plans include extending its IFS Applications suite to Atlas
Group companies located in other European countries.

“We are extremely happy
that Atlas Group has chosen to implement IFS Applications in its companies in
Poland. This very important customer win confirms that IFS Applications fulfills
all the requirements of companies operating in the process manufacturing
industry,” said Marcin Taranek, President of IFS CEE.
