IFS, the global enterprise applications company announces that “Paula Fish” Sławomir Gojdź Sp.J., a company specializing in fish processing, has implemented IFS Applications™ 9 with the support of InfoConsulting, part of the IFS Partner Network.

IFS Applications offer comprehensive support of finance and controlling, input logistics together with advanced support of pallet management, production, output logistics, maintenance, and staffing. The solution was deployed in January 2018 on time and within budget.

J. “Thanks to IFS Applications, we have increased the operational efficiency of our enterprise.
