Boomi is an iPaaS pioneer that has been leading the Gartner's Enterprise iPaaS Magic Quadrant for 6 consecutive years. Recently, IFS went into a partnership with Boomi. The resulting technology stack comprises best-in-class enterprise resource management (ERP), enterprise asset management (EAM) and field service management (FSM) in a 'digital switchboard' that combines industrial process expertise with cloud agility. Over the last three decades, the IFS team has built specialist enterprise applications for various major industries spanning manufacturing, aerospace & defense, engineering, construction & infrastructure, energy & utilities, and service management. As these industries now digitize their operations, they need to connect silos of information, increasingly held in the cloud. This requires more and better agile ways to connect, disconnect and reconnect large and fast-changing pools of data. Boomi was conceived to solve these issues. Read on to discover how Boomi is further transforming IFS solutions.

Next-level Connectivity

Boomi enables IFS customers to seamlessly connect their data, applications and new technology with their IFS software, turning their best-in-class ERP, EAM and Service Management into a digital core for their people and their business. In other words, the current technology facilitates integration at the data layer using Switchboard thinking which enables companies to quickly map data fields within IFS to third party applications using the Boomi ultra-modern real-time drag and drop interface.

According to Sakari  Jorma, Senior vice president, IFS: "By adopting 'switchboard thinking' - where all business-critical applications are connected by one central point - organizations can speed up supply chains, improve service responses and compete globally like never before. Businesses across all industries—from aerospace and defense to power generation—will be able to connect their best-of-breed systems to their IFS core through Boomi's unified, cloud-native platform. The partnership reaffirms IFS's commitment to offering customers choice and freedom to leverage their existing digital property to achieve faster time to value."
