IFS puts new shine on Copperleaf with acceleration initiative
IFS used its annual user convention to up the ante on practitioner touchpoints and functionality in relation to Copperleaf, the asset investment planning company it acquired earlier this year.
A new Copperleaf Accelerate Programme is designed to enable IFS customers to transfer operational and tactical asset management data in IFS into Copperleaf’s Asset Investment Planning (AIP) tool.
The off-the-shelf solution is said to benefit IFS customers by using all existing data in IFS Cloud to fast-track implementation and unlock a return on investment.
Copperleaf AIP manages trillions of dollars worth of assets globally, helping infrastructure organisations make decisions, such as where and when to invest in their businesses to maximise capital efficiency, meet performance targets, manage risk and achieve their ESG and strategic goals.
The “accelerate programme” is an annual subscription that offers IFS customers benefits and helps organisations implement AIP with IFS Cloud. It provides preconfigured capabilities and connectors to ensure customers can get value faster.
“We’re committed to innovation, customer success, and delivering value-creating solutions,” said Lance Olmsted, IFS’s president for Copperleaf. “Joining the Copperleaf Accelerate Program allows customers to significantly enhance their asset management strategies, resulting in improved decision-making and financial performance. By leveraging existing data within IFS Cloud, we can swiftly develop asset risk models, simplifying the implementation of AIP and maximizing the value of their current IFS solutions.”
IFS Cloud users will be able to align operational decision-making insight in their EAM, ERP, and FSM systems to strategic value-based decision-making with AIP through a seamless extension of the same platform they already use today.
As an off-the-shelf product, this greatly simplifies solution architecture by removing the need for complex integrations and cross-solution configuration, while leveraging asset, investment, and resource data already in IFS Cloud.
Out-of-the-box models
Key benefits for users include pre-configured out-of-the-box models and tools to simplify and accelerate implementation. There is also ongoing support, training, and resources from a dedicated team to ensure successful implementation and operation.
Copperleaf provides enterprise decision analytics software solutions to companies managing critical infrastructure. It uses operational and financial data to enable users to make investment decisions that deliver the highest business value.
