IFS, the global enterprise applications company, announces that LCI has decided to implement IFS Applications throughout the Untitled-3 group, which includes porcelain and textile manufacturing subsidiaries.

The IFS solution to be deployed at LCI’s headquarters will support mission-critical processes such as financial consolidation to empower senior management with the tools for strategic decision-making and improved visibility throughout the company.

Earlier in 2015, LCI subsidiaries Dankotuwa Porcelain and Royal Fernwood Porcelain commenced their implementation project. Also scheduled to start implementing IFS Applications is manufacturing subsidiary South Asia Textiles, Sri Lanka’s premier fabric manufacturer.

When fully deployed, IFS Applications will be used by more than 200 staff across four sites as the central ERP backbone providing integrated business process support for production planning, manufacturing, supply chain management, financials, HR, and business analytics.

“We are ushering in a new era of manufacturing excellence at our facilities and IFS Applications is an essential part of this project,” LCI Chief Operating Officer Sajeewa Ranasinghe said. “We look forward to a group-wide integration, which is a strategic priority for our enterprise. Furthermore, we are also looking forward to working closely with IFS to create an outstanding business solution and ensure a smooth and swift implementation.”

IFS Sri Lanka Head of Strategic Accounts and Public Sector Kavinda Mahawedage added, “We are confident that our technology will bring about significant changes in efficiency in the LCI group’s operations and provide greater visibility to its complex manufacturing operations. IFS understands the business challenges of the LCI group very well and with our decades of implementation experience in the sector, we are well positioned to deliver yet another robust industry solution.”
