IFS Ultimo’s Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) platform has been selected by Orkla to manage activities for projects at its site in Filipstad, Sweden. The facility currently uses the cloud-based software solution to ensure that administrative assignments and maintenance tasks at the site are carried out efficiently and effectively. Further functions of the software will be rolled out to other departments within the organisation at a later date. As one of the leading operators of brands and concept solutions for supermarkets, pharmacies, bakeries and catering, Orkla has 15 production facilities in Sweden.

“Our old CMMS system was unable to keep up with the organisation’s evolving requirements, as we looked to achieve full-scale digital transformation at our Filipstad site,” explained Jack Delang, Process Improvement Manager at Orkla. “We were experiencing unexpected system breakdowns, which led to costly disruption. We needed a user-friendly platform to help us streamline maintenance projects and help us grow as a company.”

“IFS Ultimo has powerful features to manage preventive maintenance and maintenance plans and can play a huge role in becoming a part of Manufacturing Operations Management. Alongside this, in comparison to competitors, IFS Ultimo is better developed as a company, with great responsiveness, personal contact and reliable support. The potential with IFS Ultimo solution and their overall professional organisational approach were the main reasons for our choice.” Orkla’s Delang added.

Featuring innovative technologies and functionalities, the software helps optimise maintenance management allowing the customer to have more control and structure over their assets, to gain greater understanding to empower decision-making and deliver results and to improve cost control.
