IFS - Mining ERP Software, Project Management, EPCI and Asset Management

IFS develops, supplies and implements IFS Applications™, a component-based extended enterprise resource planning (ERP) suite built on SOA technology.

IFS, a public company founded in 1983, focuses on agile businesses where any of four core processes are strategic: service and asset management, manufacturing, supply chain and project.

Combining industry-specific components, IFS Applications was developed in close cooperation with customers and leading industry partners, with standard business components needed by all types of organisations. The result is a solution that is designed for your industry and still covers your entire business without costly, time-consuming customisations and modifications.

Mining lifecycle ERP suite

Over the years, IFS has established itself as a leading supplier of industry solutions based on IFS Applications and industry competence. With IFS Applications, you can underpin every stage of the mining lifecycle from exploration to delivery, helping clients to measure performance, better manage projects, improve processes, control costs and increase efficiencies in their supply chain so that they can bring their products to market faster.

Comprehensive mining asset management

Mining requires equipment and equipment needs regular management. IFS Applications provides extensive asset management functionality along with maintenance, repair and overhaul, and preventative and planned maintenance support to keep mobile and fixed equipment up and running longer. IFS Applications supports the planning and scheduling of maintenance for minimal disruption to the business, with the aim of increasing productivity and plant performance, while reducing the potential for equipment breakdowns.

Mining project management system

IFS Applications provides full support for any project lifecycle, covering project planning and resource management, sales and sub-contract management, budgeting and forecasting, risk management, change management, maintenance, document management, financials, procurement, inventory and personnel. IFS delivers total visibility and control from beginning to end, all in real time.

Integrated engineering, procurement, construction and installation software

The IFS Application family is the only construction and contracting software on the market that fully integrates project planning with project execution and follow up. Manage the complete lifecycle, ensuring optimal flexibility, control and cost effectiveness in the delivery of the project, including scope, tender, approve, award, deliver and handover.

IFS Applications supports engineering, planning and forecasting, improves efficiency and control in the day-to-day operations, and integrates project, asset and facilities management with sales contract management, workforce management and business intelligence.

IFS’s technology for collaborative solutions and data exchange lets you expand your processes into your extended network of subcontractors, partners and customers.

ERP software with eco-footprint management

Running an environmentally responsible business operation is not just good for the environment; it can also improve your bottom line. Current and pending international legislation, increased environmental awareness among investors and a company’s ability and willingness to conduct its business in a sustainable manner, combined with sound business sense, makes environmental accounting a business imperative.

IFS's eco-footprint management application enables you to calculate and analyse the environmental impact of your operations, control costs, and prepare for future eco-legislation because it is tightly integrated with your ERP solution, allowing you instantaneous access to all the data you require.

Some of IFS’ customers in the mining and resources sectors include Elkem, Hecla Mining, Hornonitrianske bane Prievidza, Hutman, Imerys, Kopex Group and Zlomrex Group.
