The Morgan Motor Company Embraces Modernity to Accelerate Tradition
I see IFS as the real foundation for the business. Without making this change we would be unable to move forward with the business. It’s partners like IFS that are really that fundamental to our growth and future for the next 100 or 200 years. We looked for a solution that could handle manufacturing, sales, spare parts. Actually, IFS was the only system I felt could do this out of the box.

IFS for Automotive Suppliers includes solutions for manufacturing & distribution, supply chain, services, asset and project management, fully integrated with financials and human resources. These operate stand alone; integrated with existing corporate enterprise systems; or as part of a comprehensive IFS deployment.
Some automotive suppliers need the same complex order-driven and mixed-mode functionality as other type manufacturers using IFS. However, automotive-related production often specifically involves lean manufacturing—including Kanban—electronic data interchange (EDI), n-level packaging and multi-site planning & execution.
Of specific interest to vehicle manufacturers/assemblers are multiple-algorithm-based demand-planning and forecasting; service-level-based spare parts and planning; design-, engineer- and configure-to-order capability; program/project management, including make-to-project; and dynamic order processing/Seiban.
With IFS Eco-footprint Management, environmental impacts are assigned to product units. Reports detail impacts by product line, manufacturing process, business unit or business enterprise.
