applications company, announces that French aeronautical manufacturer Figeac
Aéro (http://www.figeac-aero.com/2-23935-Home.php) has decided to implement IFS
Applications™ 9 (http://www.ifsworld.com/corp/solutions/ifs-applications/) to
replace and unify its current portfolio of business systems. The agreement
includes licenses and services valued at approximately 1.5 million euros.
With a workforce of more than 1,900 employees at sites in France, the US,
Mexico, Morocco, and Tunisia, Figeac Aéro is a leading aerospace manufacturer
specializing in the production of light alloy and hard metal structural parts,
engine parts, landing gear parts, and sub-assemblies. Figeac Aéro aims to be the
number one aerospace subcontractor in Europe.

In order to support the rapid growth of its industrial footprint, the company
was looking for a comprehensive enterprise software suite to replace its
portfolio of legacy systems. Following a thorough evaluation process, Figeac
Aéro selected IFS Applications.

The IFS solution will be used by some 1,200 employees to support mission
-critical processes such as manufacturing, supply chain management, financials,
quality management, and project management.

“We needed a central, integrated business system to effectively manage our
rapidly growing operations,” Figeac Aéro CEO Jean-Claude Maillard said. “We
chose IFS based on the solution’s comprehensive functionality and the company’s
successful track record in the aerospace manufacturing sector.”
