IFS has completed its acquisition of Softeon, giving enterprises across manufacturing, logistics and retail access to a new category of supply chain technology. Operating as IFS Softeon, the move combines IFS’ powerful Industrial AI capabilities with Softeon’s more than 20 years of tier-1 warehouse management software (WMS) expertise.

The launch of IFS Softeon marks a significant moment in the supply chain technology landscape, addressing a long-standing challenge: many enterprises operate disconnected Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and WMS systems, creating costly blind spots. IFS Softeon aims to resolve this by delivering unified visibility from the boardroom to the warehouse floor, powered by Industrial AI. The platform brings together deep industrial domain expertise, robotics orchestration and proven warehouse execution within a single, integrated offering.

IFS Softeon responds to growing demand for intelligent, fully integrated supply chain solutions. IFS already manages US$2.4 trillion in critical assets and brings its industry-leading IFS Cloud platform—purpose-built for asset-intensive industries—alongside embedded Industrial AI capabilities and robotics orchestration expertise. Softeon contributes a field-proven WMS platform, recognition as a Gartner Visionary*, and extensive operational experience managing warehouse operations for a blue-chip customer base including Brooks, Casey’s, Denso, Sears Home Services, Sony and UPS. Together, IFS Softeon now processes millions of orders each month and supports warehouse operations in 30 countries.

Mark Moffat, CEO of IFS, commented: “The introduction of IFS Softeon means that every enterprise grappling with the complexity of modern supply chains now has access to something genuinely new: end-to-end supply chain intelligence, from strategic decision-making to physical execution on the warehouse floor. Industrial AI meets limitless warehouse execution — a combination that will transform what is possible for our customers.”
