WHITE PAPER
Equipment
Equipment OEMs, dealers, rental specialists, and service organisations rely on Infor to help meet, and exceed, evolving customer expectations, equipment and parts availability, lifecycle utilisation optimisation, and any unforeseen challenges. Here are the industry-specific obstacles we help our customers overcome.
Shifting customer expectations
Meeting customer demand for availability and reliability is increasingly dependent on using smart equipment, data capture, and analysis
Availability and utilisation
Rental equipment profitability is impacted by service and maintenance costs; limited spare parts inventory drives customers to competitors

A lack of visibility across multi-echelon supply chains creates integration complications and makes it difficult to fulfill volatile demand patterns
Lifecycle profitability
Maintaining equipment and margins throughout the equipment lifecycle presents wide-ranging challenges
Circular economy
Equipment companies need to meet demand for improved sustainability via remanufactured and used cores and components
