Empowering transformation: My take on Infor Velocity Suite

July 2, 2025By Michael Guantiero | VP, Solution Consulting- APJ

The role of digital process automation in modern industries

I had the privilege of presenting at the second edition of Infor™ Velocity Day in Bengaluru. Standing in front of an audience filled with industry leaders from manufacturing, distribution, and food & beverage sectors, I felt an incredible sense of excitement. This event wasn’t just another speaking opportunity—it was a chance to showcase something I’m deeply passionate about: the transformative power of the Infor Velocity Suite.

This isn’t just a solution—it’s a game changer. It’s about redefining how businesses operate and, more importantly, how people within those businesses thrive.

What is Velocity Suite, and why does it matter?

The Infor Velocity Suite is a comprehensive, packaged product designed to simplify and accelerate process innovation. It brings together process mining, intelligent automation, and generative AI in one powerful offering. What excites me most is its speed and simplicity—it delivers value in weeks, not years, and it doesn’t require customers to hire AI or RPA experts to get started.

Driving operational excellence through workflow optimisation

For existing customers, it’s an incredible enhancement to their current Infor solutions—streamlining workflows, unlocking new efficiencies, and enabling fast wins with prebuilt use cases tailored to their industry. For new prospects, it’s a ready-to-use entry point that drives operational excellence from day one, not phase two or phase three. In today’s competitive market, that head start can make all the difference.

Real results, real impact

In my session, I highlighted real-world examples that demonstrate what Velocity Suite can do:

  • GMM Pfaudler in Mumbai faced a massive data cleanup task—800,000 items. Each one took 5 minutes to clean manually, draining global teams and projecting over 7.6 years of effort. With Velocity Suite’s Gen AI, the same job was completed in just 6 months, saving €1–2 million and cutting inventory costs by 5%.
  • A leading North American distributor used Velocity Suite to transform their Procure-to-Pay process. They identified bottlenecks 97% faster, unlocking $1 million in early payment discounts.
  • Ring Container Technologies replaced paper-based processes with automation, reducing enquiry response times by 96% and saving $102,000 annually—all while freeing up teams to focus on what they do best: delivering quality.

The impact of intelligent automation solutions and the future of work

What inspires me most about these stories isn’t just the numbers—it’s the human impact.

Velocity Suite doesn’t just improve efficiency; it empowers people. By automating repetitive, time-consuming tasks—like data cleanup or manual reviews—we’re giving employees the chance to focus on meaningful work. They get to innovate, build stronger customer relationships, and contribute in more strategic ways.

At GMM Pfaudler, teams moved from burnout to productivity, channelling their energy into high-impact initiatives. At Ring Container, employees rediscovered purpose and pride in their work. That’s what the future of work should look like—people leading with creativity, agility, and passion.

Start small, start now: Rapid deployment for immediate business transformation

I began my presentation with a quote from Simon Sinek:
“The goal isn’t to be perfect by the end. The goal is to be better today.”

Velocity Suite makes that achievable. It removes the traditional barriers to innovation and digital transformation by delivering a prepackaged solution with rapid deployment and proven results—focused on the specific areas of your business that matter most.
