Chemigraphic | Manufacturing | 137 | $27M | United Kingdom | IFS | IFS Cloud ERP | ERP Financial | 2018 |
In 2018, Chemigraphic implemented IFS Cloud ERP using IFS Applications 10 as an entirely cloud based deployment, positioning the project within the ERP Financial category. The implementation began in May 2018 and was executed primarily out of Chemigraphic’s Crawley site, covering approximately 75 system users across manufacturing and office operations. Anthesis acted as the implementation partner and led the project delivery from launch through testing and go live.
The IFS Cloud ERP deployment included core IFS modules for Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Projects, Financials, Warehousing, CRM, HR and Maintenance, with configuration and testing spanning both functional and technical consultancy. Chemigraphic adopted handheld devices for warehousing data capture in addition to office based IFS Applications 10 usage, reflecting mixed-device operational workflows and mobile inventory processes.
Architecturally the solution was completely hosted on Microsoft Azure, delivering a cloud only deployment model for IFS Applications 10. Anthesis resourced the rollout with a six consultant delivery team led by Mike Evans, while a Chemigraphic taskforce led by Technical Director Stewart Gadd and NPI and Sales Systems Manager Alex Cook provided internal governance and subject matter leadership.
Governance and rollout emphasized a joint project management model and iterative testing cycles to embed the application across business functions. Reported outcomes from Chemigraphic include improved operational efficiency, superior planning, better forecasting and enhanced capacity management as the business moved enterprise processes onto a single IFS Cloud ERP platform.

TechnipFMC | Oil, Gas and Chemicals | 25027 | $7.8B | United Kingdom | IFS | IFS ERP | ERP Financial | 2018 |
In 2018, TechnipFMC implemented IFS ERP as an ERP Financial initiative focused initially at its Le Trait manufacturing site, with a planned rollout to sister manufacturing operations in Malaysia and the UK. The programme targeted harmonising manufacturing processes, standardising data, improving resource performance and facilitating information exchange between functional domains, applying best practices in the installation of IFS ERP.
The IFS ERP implementation included configuration and custom development across project accounting and manufacturing finance, notably custom GL posting routines to capture manufacturing project price sheet details and mechanisms to post cross charges to GL vouchers. Time recording controls were implemented through interfaces to an inhouse T&A system, and supplier payment outputs and employee expense remittances were designed to meet France, Malaysia and UK statutory and business formats. Reporting and expediting capabilities were delivered using PL/SQL, Crystal Reports and SQL to automate procurement authorisation notices, time reporting and invoice follow up.
Architecturally the deployment used BizTalk as the integration middleware to unify Suppliers, Customers and Projects with a corporate data management system, and to link IFS ERP with a bespoke quality management system. An interface was designed to exchange data with a dot net web application to manage interdepartmental cross charging, and additional interfaces validated and controlled time data flows into IFS. Data migration was executed in collaboration with Cap Gemini, following a sequenced approach to data mapping, translation, extraction from source systems, business user verification and population into IFS ERP.
Governance and operational handoffs were formalised by embedding an Anthesis senior consultant, Colin Hobley, into the project team, he acted as the primary technical and business contact and coordinated the data migration subproject with Cap Gemini. Process owners collaborated on report specifications and monitoring tools, and the project team tuned the IFS application layer by monitoring connectivity logs and using the IFS event handler to align business logic with operational requirements.
TechnipFMC retained Anthesis for specialist IFS consultancy throughout the roll out, and due to a positive engagement outcome Technip and Anthesis planned further collaboration as they continued to expand IFS ERP across manufacturing sites. The implementation emphasized integration, standardisation and governance across finance, procurement, project accounting, quality and time recording domains.

Autosmart | Manufacturing | 350 | $43M | United Kingdom | IFS | IFS ERP | ERP Financial | 2022 |
In 2022, Autosmart began implementing IFS ERP as part of an ERP Financial program to consolidate core financial processes and reporting. The IFS ERP deployment was contracted to Anthesis, which was selected for its demonstrated expertise with IFS Applications and project delivery track record.
The implementation emphasizes ERP Financial capabilities, including core financials, general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, fixed assets and financial reporting, with configuration aligned to manufacturing finance workflows and United Kingdom statutory reporting. Configuration work is focused on mapping Autosmart requirements into IFS ERP functional modules and configuring transaction flows to support month end and statutory close processes.
Operational coverage for the program spans Autosmart finance and operations functions across its United Kingdom operations, with Anthesis supporting both implementation and the design of ongoing support arrangements. Integrations with other enterprise systems are being managed as part of the configuration scope to ensure transactional continuity between operational processes and financial ledgers.
Governance is centered on a client SI engagement model where Anthesis provides implementation leadership and ongoing support capabilities, and Autosmart IT leadership provides business requirements and acceptance oversight. Shaun Devey, IT Director of Autosmart, reported that Anthesis have demonstrated a professional approach and are a good fit for implementation and ongoing support, and the project is on target to deploy both on time and to budget.
