Radpol Group Selects IFS For Manufacturing Operations

Radpol Group, a Polish manufacturer and supplier to the heating and energy sector, has chosen IFS Applications 8 to support its business-critical processes. The IFS system will be implemented in four manufacturing facilities owned by Radpol. Listed on the Warsaw stock exchange, Radpol manufactures heat transfer systems, products for the energy market, plastic water supply and sewage pipes, and gas pipe systems and employs 2,600 people. The group operates five manufacturing sites in Poland and its products are also exported to a number of European countries including Italy, Germany, Denmark, Finland, Switzerland, Sweden, Lithuania, Estonia, Czech Republic, and Russia.

Following an extensive evaluation involving several ERP system products, the company chose IFS Applications as the solution best design to enhance Radpol's operational efficiency. IFS's experience in working with companies in the energy and manufacturing sectors was a key factor in its selection.

The IFS implementation will cover all key areas, including manufacturing, distribution, HR and payroll, maintenance, financials and accounting, as well as business analytics. Through better production workflow planning and stock accuracy optimization, Radpol expects to reduce their working capital with manufacturing and supply chain areas bringing in significant savings.

It is expected that total savings resulting from the implementation will allow Radpol to raise their EBITDA margin by at least 145,000 euros per year and reduce working capital by approximately 240,000 euros.
