“Our clients will realise increased value and savings through robust automation, significantly improved response times, reductions in inventory levels and planned on-time deliveries.

Kevin Deal, vice president of Aviation and Defence for IFS, said: “IFS has a proven history of being able to help organisations like AECOM meet the requirements of federal government clients in settings ranging from procurement, asset management and maintenance, repair and overhaul, through complex government contracting vehicles.

“We are excited about the opportunity to help AECOM automate and streamline numerous front and back office processes, enabling the company to tighten the procurement cycle, regardless of whether inventory is received at an AECOM warehouse, a customer location or a construction site.

“We look forward to standing up a supply chain management system that AECOM can leverage to enable growth in the market.”
