Ropeway specialist to standardize on the single ERP platform across its global business

LONDON, Nov. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — IFS, the leading technology provider of enterprise cloud and Industrial AI software, today announced that the Doppelmayr Group, the leader in high-quality ropeway systems and provider of efficient intralogistics solutions, has decided to upgrade to IFS Cloud to power digitalization and drive global growth.

Doppelmayr’s decision to transition to IFS Cloud for ERP was driven by its strategic focus on the internal digitalization of its operations. By moving to IFS Cloud the company will benefit from twice-yearly releases of new features and capabilities, enabling it to streamline its complex processes across 55 countries, while gaining a unified solution that consolidates many of its systems into one. The integration will also eliminate the need for multiple customizations, providing a single source of truth for Doppelmayr’s data.

Gerhard Gassner, Managing Director at Doppelmayr, said: “Over the last 15 years, IFS has essentially become the digital backbone of our business processes worldwide. We use IFS for everything from sales to engineering, manufacturing to installation, and even the commissioning and maintenance of ropeways. Moving to IFS Cloud is integral to the digital transformation journey we are on.”

The extended global capabilities mean that Doppelmayr’s sales locations worldwide, as well as its production sites, can operate under the same system. Set to start immediately, the implementation will cover most functional areas of Doppelmayr’s business and involve more than 3,000 employees across multiple sites. The implementation of the project will be done by IFS partner Flexicode.

Sebastian Spicker, Managing Director, DACH at IFS, said: “Doppelmayr’s long-standing commitment to innovation and quality aligns perfectly with our vision at IFS. By transitioning to IFS Cloud, Doppelmayr will benefit from a unified, scalable platform that will transform their digital operations. At the same time, it will eliminate the need for them to run future upgrade projects, ensuring they are evergreen and freeing up time to deliver more business value through a connected global ERP platform. We look forward to supporting Doppelmayr as they continue to lead their industry and deliver exceptional value to their customers worldwide.”

Specified Technologies Inc. Unveils Firestop Clash Management and Locator Updates

November 23, 2024

SOMERVILLE, N.J., Nov. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Specified Technologies Inc. has announced their latest Firestop Clash Management (FCM) and Firestop Locator (FSL) releases. FCM automates the process of locating and assigning firestop solutions to conditions within Autodesk® Revit®, enabling firestop novices to find firestop solutions like a firestop expert. In this latest release, STI has further expanded the capabilities of FCM by integrating it with their firestop documentation and compliance tool, Firestop Locator (FSL). FSL enables contractors and facilities’ teams to document the status, location, and products used for any and all fire life safety services across a building.

In the latest update for FSL, teams can now create custom items to track any service on their project beyond the base six (Penetration, Joint, Extinguisher, Door, Damper, and Barrier). Teams can also modify the base six items to include project specific inspection and maintenance requirements and any other details that they would like to be tracked.

With this new integration, decisions made during the design phase of a building using FCM are seamlessly passed into FSL during the construction phase, giving implementation teams a jump start on work to be done. This integration also improves data integrity and eliminates the guesswork in the field of determining what firestop systems and products are to be used where.

“We’re proud of the latest releases of FCM and FSL and look forward to continuing to support the fire life safety community,” says Justin Pine, Sr. Manager of Software & Services.

Specified Technologies Inc. promotes life and building safety by developing innovative fire protection systems and accompanying digital tools that help stop the spread of fire, smoke, and hot gases. Our SpecSeal® and EZ Path® product lines are engineered for easy installation and deliver powerful performance, often resulting in lower installed costs. Since firestopping is our only business, we concentrate all our resources on providing the highest quality, fully tested, innovative firestopping solutions.
