Infor CloudSuite Aerospace & Defense is Chosen by Alva Industries

Alva Industries, a revolutionary Norwegian company that designs electric motors and generators for electric propulsion applications, has selected Infor CloudSuite Aerospace & Defense as its ERP system, according to Infor, the industry cloud company. Midport Scandinavia will implement the multi-tenant cloud solution, which will run on AWS.

Alva Industries was established in Trondheim, Norway, in 2016, and has since signed large production contracts with companies such as Lockheed Martin and Qinetiq. In addition to focusing on manufacturing programs for the electrification of vessels in the air, on land, and at sea, Alva Industries also manufactures motors for the industrial drone market.

Infor has been investing heavily in its verticalization strategy for many years, which means that its CloudSuite solutions provide content tailored to individual sectors based on best practices, as well as related features and business processes tailored to those industries, minimizing risk and driving operational efficiencies.

Midport Scandinavia utilizes Infor's implementation methodology, in which process owners from Alva Industries collaborate with Infor and Midport to walk through the processes resulting in a fit/gap analysis. A typical result is a 60:30:10 distribution, in which 60% of the customer's processes correspond to standard software content, 30% need modification, and 10% must be tailored to the needs of the individual company. This means that the solution can be largely triggered early in the process.
