Technodyn International has announced updates to IFS Cloud
Technodyn International, the sub-Saharan Africa partner for enterprise software development company IFS, has announced the latest update to IFS Cloud. A host of new features have been added, including functionality that speeds up time to deployment in system application deployment and advanced analytics, all designed to deliver a refined user experience.
As part of the upgrade, IFS has added a range of industry-specific capabilities such as improved data collection capabilities, to demonstrate compliance and highlight the steps an organisation has achieved towards meeting its sustainability goals with the IFS Cloud Sustainability Hub now available and integrated inside Microsoft Teams. With the latest updates to IFS Cloud for human capital management and Talent Management solutions, customers can elect to use out-of-the-box functionality for recruitment, onboarding and development.
With the addition of new application programming interfaces (APIs), customers can connect application services across business and third-party applications. One example is the inclusion of APIs that connect factory machinery with IFS Cloud to deliver a connected shop floor, allowing clients to derive real-time intelligence that creates a central management view of the supply-chain and production in line, ensuring supply always meets demand. Another core new functionality includes Intelligent Asset Monitoring and Maintenance that uses machine learning to improve predictive maintenance capabilities and efficiency.
Advanced Analytics features have been added to user-customisable Lobbies, allowing an organisation to leverage modular tabular analysis models and display business-critical information relevant to the user. A focus on analytics enables a user to visualise data in real-time, create detailed data visualisations and aims to make analytics simple for all teams to navigate and utilise. An updated user experience adds new branding capabilities that allow customers to white label solutions and add customised branding to the experience.
Additional features and updates include:
- Update Studio – designed to provide users with better control of how updates are deployed and consumed, ensuring that they can plan the release of updates and measure their impact downstream by understanding what effect they will have on the businesses configurations and customisations of the system. Aimed at helping users manage system change management better and ensure that compliance and regulatory frameworks are not compromised when systems are updated.
- Dispatch Console – part of IFS Cloud for Service Management, features capabilities based on four personas of dispatchers, ranging from those that rely on a mostly automated process to those that will complete a whole process start to finish manually. IFS Cloud enables each user profile to deliver a ‘Moment of Service’ for customers.
"With these updates, IFS is acknowledging that for its clients to remain agile and connected; they need a software environment that can evolve as their business does. We are also delighted to announce that these features and functionality are immediately available to Technodyn's IFS partners and customers across sub-Saharan Africa," said Technodyn International Chief Commercial Officer Heman Kassan.
