Infor Supply Chain Management

Cloud ERP for small and midsize industrial manufacturers, owned by Koch

Overview

Infor WMS is the warehouse system of Infor, an enterprise software company that became a wholly owned, standalone subsidiary of Koch Industries in 2020 after Koch Equity invested US$2.2 billion in 2017 and US$1.5 billion in 2019[11]. Infor states that it serves more than 60,000 organisations and employs more than 17,000 people[11].

The WMS runs on the Infor Industry Cloud Platform, a multi-tenant foundation, and includes embedded AI, analytics and voice processing[10]. Distinctive capabilities are an interactive 3D model of the warehouse used to locate bottlenecks, labour standards built from task elements and compared with actual times, and owner-specific billing workflows for third-party logistics providers[10]. Standard functions include multi-site and multi-owner inventory, receiving and put-away, wave management, picking and replenishment, kitting and labelling, and AI pick-path optimisation[10]. Infor reports that R&S Logistics achieved 99.8% order accuracy across 14 facilities and that HAVI standardised 44 distribution centres on the product[10], and says it has been a Gartner WMS Leader for eight consecutive years[10].

The product suits manufacturers and distributors already running Infor CloudSuite ERP, as well as 3PLs that need client billing. Infor does not publish prices, and the multi-tenant model limits deep code-level customisation compared with on-premises systems.
