IFS Partners with Climatiq to Launch Emissions Management in IFS Cloud
IFS, the leading provider of enterprise cloud and Industrial AI software, has announced a strategic partnership with carbon intelligence platform Climatiq, coinciding with the launch of its new Emissions Management module in IFS Cloud. This launch supports IFS's broader strategy to embed sustainability directly into business operations, enabling customers to make informed, carbon-aware decisions based on their own data. The partnership is further underscored by the release of a joint white paper: 'IFS Cloud: Carbon Emissions Scope 3 Overview and Statement of Direction.' The collaboration between IFS and åpbrings together industrial AI and expert carbon intelligence to transform how companies manage sustainability, at a time when it's never been more important. The partnership allows asset intensive industries to actively manage their carbon footprint, and how to reduce it all while maintaining strong operating and efficiency standards. IFS Cloud now integrates Climatiq's carbon calculation engine and extensive database of scientifically-vetted emission factors, enabling automatic carbon calculations from within core business systems. Emission Management leverages the existing asset hierarchy in IFS Cloud to quickly and accurately build your emissions sources while ensuring consistency and fast setup. The newly launched Emissions Management module empowers organizations to automate emissions calculation and embed sustainability into daily operations. With prebuilt templates, standard methodologies, and available directing in IFS Cloud, the application helps businesses achieve accurate carbon insights at scale. To support this initiative, IFS and Climatiq have co-authored a new white paper. The paper outlines how IFS' embedded sustainability capabilities can transform business activity data into actionable emissions insights. In turn, companies can streamline their reporting processes to meet global standards such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting directive (CSRD) and allow for smarter, greener decision-making. 'Sustainability regulations are under constant change and review, and our customers are under increasing pressure to meet these evolving obligations while continuing to adapt,' said Caitlin Keam, VP of Sustainability Applications at IFS. 'By integrating Climatiq's verified emissions factor database into Emissions Management in IFS Cloud, we enable organizations to embed sustainability into day-to-day operations, allowing them to adapt quickly, gain clear insights, and make better decisions directly within their core system.' 'This partnership brings together IFS's deep industry expertise and Climatiq's carbon intelligence to put climate impact at the heart of business decision-making,' said Hessam Lavi, CEO and co-founder at Climatiq. 'By embedding emissions data directly into enterprise workflows and releasing a joint white paper that outlines the path forward for scope 3 reporting, we are helping customers power the green transition through practical, data-driven solutions and collaborative research.' IFS's commitment to sustainability has been further strengthened by its recent investment from Generation Investment Management, the pioneering sustainable investment firm. This backing serves as a powerful endorsement of IFS's long-term commitment to sustainability. The collaboration with Climatiq exemplifies how IFS is actively driving innovation toward a greener future, aligning its strategy with the values of one of the world's most respected sustainability-focused investors.

TOMRA Collections North America drives service transformation through early adoption of IFS.ai
Global recycling leader leveraged Industrial AI embedded in IFS Cloud to achieve value fast, improving customer service and operational efficiency. NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- IFS, the leading provider of enterprise cloud and Industrial AI software, announces that TOMRA Collections North America, a division of global recycling leader TOMRA, has achieved major operational and service performance gains since implementing IFS Cloud. TOMRA, known for capturing over 48 billion used beverage containers annually through its 85,000+ reverse vending machine installations worldwide, has long relied on IFS technology to manage its complex, large-scale field service operations. Following a strategic upgrade in 2023 to IFS Cloud, TOMRA has embraced a new era of agility, data-based intelligence, and ongoing value through its early adoption of At the heart of TOMRA's transformation is its field service organization—responsible for maintaining mission-critical equipment across diverse locations and climates. By standardizing systems, processes, and KPIs globally, and leveraging IFS Cloud's real-time visibility, TOMRA has significantly improved key service metrics. First-time fix rates now consistently reach 96–97%, up from 84%, and overall operational efficiency has grown by 27% since the company's initial deployment of IFS solutions. Jay Sethuraj, Vice President, Technology, TOMRA North America, commented: "Our initial investment in IFS helped us establish a baseline and improve operational efficiency, but IFS Cloud has taken us to another level, allowing us to continually redefine what operational excellence looks like. With evergreen updates, embedded AI innovation, and deep configuration options, we're able to adapt and evolve in real time." TOMRA's shift to IFS Cloud was fuelled by the need for an evergreen operating model—enabling the business to stay current with the latest functionality without disruptive upgrades. With updates now delivered incrementally, TOMRA can adopt new capabilities quickly, reducing update time within IFS Cloud from eight weeks to just six, and system downtime to just a matter of hours. Choosing configuration over customization has been key to this agility. "IFS Cloud gives us the flexibility to make the solution our own without the technical debt of custom code," added Sethuraj. "It's this balance that makes the evergreen approach not only possible, but practical." With IFS Cloud in place and TOMRA's own data available, the company implemented embedded AI features in IFS Cloud, for example the Copilot for Knowledge Search digital assistant and the What-If Scenario Explorer (WISE). These tools are transforming everything from technical troubleshooting to resource planning. Daniel Basile, VP of Field Service, TOMRA North America, said: "WISE allows us to simulate changes to planning and scheduling in real time and immediately assess the impact. It's like having a sandbox inside production. And with Copilot, our field technicians will soon have instant access to our technical knowledge base—cutting onboarding time in half and capturing the expertise of our most seasoned employees. Rather than an employee needing 30 minutes or an hour to sift through the information of an 800-page manual, they can ask a question and in seconds it will return the answer, what page(s) it's on, and links to any supporting documents. As a business, and with the help of IFS, we've moved from firefighting to foresight. That allows us to be more consistent, more strategic, and more valuable to our customers. And that's where the real impact happens." Christian Pedersen, Chief Product Officer, IFS, added: "IFS Cloud and give ambitious companies like TOMRA the agility, intelligence, and composability they need to thrive in a fast-changing world. Their commitment to continuous improvement, combined with our embedded AI capabilities and agents, is a blueprint for driving service innovation at scale. TOMRA is one of our Pioneer customers – organizations who want to be ahead of the curve adopting the latest releases of IFS Cloud. It is fantastic to see what they have achieved in a short period and we are proud to continue partnering with them to push the boundaries of industrial transformation." To ensure a smooth transition to the cloud, TOMRA is working with long-term partner Infosys to accelerate time to value and benefiting from its investment in IFS Success services – an engagement framework created to support customers in achieving their desired business outcomes. Daniel Basile said: "Leveraging IFS Success changes the dynamic of the relationship from one of a customer and provider to that of a partnership. With Success, we receive a more white-glove approach, but even more importantly, the Success team has gotten to know our business very well which gives them a true understanding of how IFS technology can best help TOMRA achieve its goals."
