Infor, a G4 partner publisher, has developed the Cloud solution Infor Automotive Exchange. This cloud-based ERP solution accompanies equipment manufacturers by providing them with the necessary flexibility to meet their new operational needs.
Influenced by new technologies, the automotive industry has undergone many changes in terms of production in recent years.
Did you know? Over the past 30 years, the composition of a typical new car has shifted from 56% outsourced parts to over 85%.
Manufacturing plants are therefore increasingly positioning themselves as assembly plants. And when it comes to managing spare parts, that means managing suppliers.
In this new article, G4 proposes to discover 5 good reasons to prioritize the Cloud with Infor Automotive Exchange.
1/ COST REDUCTION WITH INFOR AUTOMOTIVE EXCHANGE
You are probably aware that Cloud solutions can significantly reduce costs for a company.
And Infor’s SaaS solutions are proof of that.
With a Cloud solution, you can:
- Reduce all expenses related to your computer equipment (reduce expenses related to data centers, as well as IT teams necessary for management)
- Access continuous support and maintenance
- Achieve long-term savings
2/ INFOR AUTOMOTIVE EXCHANGE: FASTER DEPLOYMENT
On-site ERP solution installation often requires several months (12 to 36 months) and can cause the stoppage or slowdown of certain production lines. With a Cloud solution, deployment is faster and your business is not disrupted.
3/ INFOR AUTOMOTIVE EXCHANGE: MORE SPACE FOR OTHER SERVICES
When companies choose to install their computer equipment on site, they need to find space for infrastructure. With the Cloud, you save space, but you also have the opportunity to establish other services in the spaces initially intended for IT.
Why not take advantage of this to expand your sales team? With the Cloud, you have more space but also more investment capacity thanks to the savings achieved.
4/ PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION
What company doesn’t want to improve efficiency? With the Cloud, you can.
Indeed, choosing a Cloud solution like those offered by Infor is ideal for improving manufacturing operations’ efficiency.
Automating tasks, optimizing processes, saving time in data entry, reducing the risk of errors and duplicates… The advantages of the Cloud in terms of performance are numerous.
5/ A CLEAR VIEW OF DATA
Here’s the 5th good reason to prioritize the Cloud. A cloud-based ERP system can also give you a complete view of your organization. For example, you have real-time access to your resources, orders, stock… The opportunity to adjust production accordingly and more quickly.
The Cloud is also connected between data. With Infor’s Saas solutions, you have access to collaborative tools connected to each other.
IN SUMMARY: THE CLOUD, THE ADAPTED RESPONSE TO PRODUCTION LINES
Infor’s cloud-based ERP solutions are not just a technical response. It is an opportunity for your company to undertake differently by providing an adapted and efficient response to each of your needs.
