Case Study: Halstrup-Walcher achieves unified, real-time operations and sub‑12‑month go‑live with IFS Cloud (IFS)
A IFS Case Study
Precision engineering company halstrup-walcher goes live with IFS Cloud in less than 12 months
halstrup-walcher is a German precision engineering firm (180 employees, trading in 49 countries) that makes mechatronic drives and high-precision pressure measurement technology. Facing an end-of-life ERP (AP+) and a patchwork of point solutions for finance, QA and HR — plus the pressure of pandemic-related remote work and 20% revenue growth — the company needed a modern, unified system and a reliable implementation partner.
Working with IFS Gold partner bytics AG, halstrup-walcher went live on IFS Cloud in under 12 months. The standard IFS Cloud implementation (zero core code changes) consolidated finance, production, PDM, QA, document management, HR and more, delivering a single real-time source of truth, Configure-to-Order capabilities, automated OCR invoice processing, improved QA traceability for faster problem resolution, bespoke reporting via IFS lobbies, and control over updates — with further steps planned for machine integration and paperless production.
