Create, Monitor And Execute Contracts Seamlessly

IFS has over 25 years of experience in contract lifecycle management, and hundreds of satisfied customers around the world using this software today.
Seamless Warranties And Claims Management
Organizations lose thousands in revenue leakage every year due to warranty claims processing issues. What is needed is a closed-loop claims management process, which administers, processes and tracks all warranties throughout their lifecycle to improve customer satisfaction, increase product quality and reduce service costs.
This is precisely what our warranty and asset management solution does. Through the automation of warranty claim handling and installed base asset tracking, IFS Field Service Management enables service organizations to create, administer, process and track warranties, claims and assets through their full lifecycles. As a result, third parties can submit valid claims and receive credits, customer service can verify coverage and initiate recovery, and field technicians can track asset history and replace in-warranty parts. The warranty and asset management functionality in IFS Field Service Management really does it all.

There is a constant need to juggle many related and interdependent tasks and for reliable, remote data capture, remote real-time workflow approvals, and more. To manage all of these moving parts simultaneously, many service organizations rely on ineffective manual tools that put them at a considerable disadvantage in terms of efficiency, operational visibility and service quality.
