This post introduces the top 10 functional enhancements available in Infor industry CloudSuites regarding legacy Lawson S3 solutions.

Particularly for asset-intensive companies that rely heavily on their equipment and devices, enhanced maintenance maturity is at the center of any effort to optimize operations and do more with less. By evolving their EAM solution to incorporate APM capabilities, organizations can manage and analyze the vast amounts of data and automated workflows necessary for predictive and prescriptive maintenance—and they can better understand assets, predict failures, and manage failures.

Supply chain management strategies continue to evolve beyond traditional analog models and are maturing towards a digital ecosystem to achieve better visibility. Read the blog to learn where your company is in this evolution and how you can continue to innovate with modern cloud-based platforms that enable your company to drive the best possible outcomes across your supply chain network.

With an avalanche of operating data from multiple sources, there are many opportunities to take another step up into predictive and preventive maintenance. APM is the tool that allows you to make sense of the data, develop a more profound understanding of your assets, predict and prevent failures, improve failure management, improve budgeting and cost control—all without having to install, then try to manage and maintain multiple software operations.

Maintenance 4.0 enables an emerging approach to asset performance management (APM) that delivers superior operating performance when companies need it most, making it possible for asset managers to get more done with limited resources. An APM solution uses algorithms and machine learning models to predict when an asset is likely to fail, then prescriptively lays out the staff assignment, business processes, and tools that will solve the problem, efficiently and cost-effectively.

Industry 4.0 addresses the challenges of the modern world with autonomous systems, smart technology, machine learning, and an agile operations model. Manufacturers looking to gain a competitive edge and create a more resilient infrastructure have begun adopting the doctrine of Industry 4.0 in tandem with upgrades of their maintenance efforts that embrace the human side of technology and empower employees to reach new levels of productivity.
