Tele2 Taps IFS Cloud ERP to Drive Efficiency

IFS, the global cloud enterprise software company, has announced that Tele2, the leading Swedish integrated telecommunications services provider, is set to implement the latest version of IFS Cloud to enable Tele2 for further improvements of its core operations and to enhance more possibilities within its 5G offering.

The implementation of IFS Cloud will support the simplification of processes across Tele2’s operations, thereby driving continuous automation. It provides a single operational view, giving the Tele2 further control over its business processes.

IFS Cloud also supports operational efficiency by enabling Tele2 to manage its entire value chain, all-in-one, including retail operations, supply chain with tight integration to third party logistic providers (3PL), and finance with support for projects and services.
Yogesh Malik, Executive Vice President CTIO, Tele2, said: “On our journey to becoming the leading telco in the Nordic and Baltic regions, we understand that business systems are extremely vital for the new digital age. Focusing on continuous simplification, automation, and building a sustainable architecture we are looking forward to partnering with IFS for the implementation of their latest solution.”

IFS’s combination of Telecom-specific capabilities, and composable platform helps communications service providers (CSP), infrastructure organizations and operators to manage the complete project, asset, and service lifecycle. With existing telecom customers such as Eltel, Proximus and many more, IFS provides telecom customers with cutting-edge capabilities that deliver differentiation and competitive advantage.

Elni Kullmer, President, North & Central Europe, IFS, said: “Tele2 is aiming to build Sweden’s best 5G network while also executing on an IT transformation that will improve every step of the digital customer journey and experience. To do that, they will need to seamlessly scale their systems and differentiate their offering by branching out into new markets with 5G applications like drones, manufacturing, aerospace, and transport. IFS can help guide them on their way because we have deep industry knowledge in many of these industries, together with the capability they need in IFS Cloud to make fast and agile cross-industry connections.”

In addition to IFS Cloud, Tele2 has also purchased IFS Success, a set of services that help businesses to succeed in uncertain times by closely following defined outcome based KPIs that secures the business transformation success.
IFS will implement and roll out the solution across Sweden.
