NEW YORK, June 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Infor, a global
leader in business cloud software specialized by industry, today
announced that Wajax Corporation ("Wajax"), a leading industrial
products and services provider, is deploying Infor CloudSuite
Equipment to help optimize multiple facets of its operations
and improve customer service.
Wajax completed an initial implementation of the Infor M3
solution in July 2019 at two pilot
sites in a single-tenant environment. The pilot sites set the
framework for a company-wide rollout. As part of the pilot, Wajax
worked closely with Infor to determine next steps in the
implementation.
An important next step in the implementation was to move to
Infor's modern, multi-tenant CloudSuite Equipment solution. The
solution provided an improved platform for the rollout, and this
upgrade was done in less than three months from project start to
finish. The new platform leverages Infor's cloud service to help
consolidate disparate systems and scale service delivery.
Kim Cordell, VP of information
technology at Wajax, said, "Infor's cloud solution will help unify
all aspects of our business by providing integrated workflows and
full visibility across the organization to more efficiently and
proactively service our customers. We can leverage Infor's
analytics capabilities to get a better understanding of equipment
utilization and cost – ultimately providing our customers with an
integrated solution to help support their product and service
needs. In addition, the new Infor M3 platform allows us to add
additional M3 modules to further enhance customer service and
operational capabilities."
Headquartered in Mississauga
(Toronto), Ontario, Wajax sells, rents, and services new
and used equipment for a broad range of customers, including
construction, mining, forestry, material handling, on-highway,
power & marine, engines & transmissions, and crane &
utility. The company also sells industrial components and performs
engineered repair services.
Infor's CloudSuite Equipment solution delivers an
industry-specific equipment quotation capability, which is designed
to enable Wajax to combine its 47 separate quotation systems.
Jeff Wayland, senior vice
president of consulting services at Infor, said, "One benefit of
our multi-tenant cloud solution is that Wajax gets regular access
to our latest software updates, which can help them deploy more
quickly and can help them innovate continuously. And because of our
focus on delivering industry-specific, 'last-mile' capabilities,
the company can take advantage of our proven equipment dealer,
rental, and service functionality."
Infor CloudSuite Equipment is a ready-to-run solution built
specifically to support equipment OEMs, dealers, rental
specialists, and service organizations that are focused on growth
and customer engagement, and that have demands for extended
services. It can be used to help companies optimize various facets
of their operations – from equipment sales, rental quotations,
contracts, purchasing, logistics, financials, shop and field
service – to support for complex pricing and discounts, customer
relationship management, and equipment lifecycle revenue
optimization.
