A IFS Case Study
ProCam is a specialist agronomy and crop production group operating across the UK and Poland, supplying farmers from a catalogue of nearly 10,000 products via 18 depots. Its business is highly seasonal and weather-driven, with up to 3,000 order lines processed in a two‑hour window, strict regulatory and storage constraints on many products, and a pressing need for real‑time visibility to keep service levels high while minimising paid‑for stock.
ProCam implemented IFS Applications in a six‑month rollout to run finance, distribution, HR, analytics, CRM and purchasing, and to integrate agronomic recommendations directly into its ERP. The out‑of‑the‑box flexibility and extensibility gave the company centralized visibility, faster decision‑making and tighter inventory control, cutting paid‑for stock by 25% and delivering multi‑million pound savings, with plans to extend the system to new acquisitions and Poland.
