Powering the future of distribution with smart supply chain software

Distribution companies have to be flexible, and then some. They offer diverse products over wide geographical areas, navigate supply chain disruptions, and meet fluctuating customer demand with speed and accuracy. The ability to move quickly and intelligently is what gives industry leaders their competitive advantage.

From on-premises to innovation: The case for cloud migration

Companies relying on on-premises systems often miss out on that edge. Legacy technology typically can’t provide the scale, agility, or transparency necessary to keep up with and surpass the competition. Plus, on-premises infrastructure makes it nearly impossible for companies to update their solutions to be equipped with the latest, most effective functionalities in their enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions.

Achieving operational efficiency in complex distribution networks

Infor™ partners with distribution companies to unlock their potential by migrating to the cloud. Infor CloudSuite™ solutions provide distribution organisations the tools and insights to thrive in unpredictable and volatile macroeconomic conditions, while also providing the flexibility to grow their roster of customers across various micro verticals. Working from the cloud, distribution companies can work more efficiently, make better business decisions, and offer their customers greater value and better experiences.

Enabling real-time data access across the enterprise

By connecting enterprise data in the cloud, employees can access accurate information in real time. This speeds up individual tasks and facilitates teamwork while also eliminating costly mistakes. Furthermore, through providing a single source of truth on an intuitive platform, employees and customers have access to interconnected and actionable data that’s simple to understand, no matter how long they’ve been working on legacy systems.

Fuelling growth through data-driven decision making

Connecting data in the cloud sets organisations up to innovate. And it’s a prerequisite for the technology that will give organisations an advantage in the years to come: automation, analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI). Infor helps distribution companies move forward in their digital journey no matter where they are, whether that means automating invoices and payments, building machine learning algorithms, or leveraging GenAI to make employees hyper-productive.

Building business agility and new revenue streams in an unpredictable economy

To remain competitive in today’s environment, distributors need modern technology ecosystems to build new revenue streams. With Infor CloudSuite, organisations can build that ecosystem quickly and effectively. As the leading provider of supply chain software, we understand the core functionalities that distribution companies need and the value-added services required to boost their bottom line. We’re here to provide these critical capabilities at the scale necessary to stay ahead.
