Infor and Kinaxis have announced a partnership aimed at helping midmarket discrete manufacturers better align supply chain plans with business goals. As part of the collaboration, the companies are launching Kinaxis Planning One for Infor CloudSuite, which combines Infor’s industry-specific CloudSuite solutions with Kinaxis’ supply chain orchestration tools and Maestro platform.
The solution is designed for customers in sectors such as automotive, industrial, consumer durables, high-tech, and aerospace and defense, allowing them to connect planning processes across supply chain networks and create a unified view of their data. Kinaxis Planning One for Infor CloudSuite brings together demand, inventory, and supply planning with scenario management tools to help manufacturers evaluate and choose plans based on factors like revenue, cost, time, or sustainability.
“Our shared commitment to innovation and driving the best outcomes for our customers will have a significant impact on the manufacturers we’ll support together,” said Conrad Mandala, EVP, Go to Market and Strategic Operations, Global Partner Organization at Kinaxis. “Manufacturers in the midmarket don’t have the same ability to cushion complexities, like large tariffs, in the same way as bigger companies do. We’re thrilled to partner with Infor to help manufacturers be more agile and resilient in the long term.”
“As manufacturers face increased pressure to satisfy customer demands faster, and with more agility and efficiency, building and maintaining resilient supply chains can only be achieved with industry-specific, cloud-based technologies,” said Andrew Kinder, Senior Vice President, of Industry and Solution Strategy, at Infor. “Our collaboration with Kinaxis is grounded in our shared commitment to equipping customers with the best tools to achieve supply chain excellence against the challenges of a complex and unpredictable landscape.”
As part of the partnership, Infor will establish a midmarket sales team in North America and the EMEA region to engage customers and support the deployment of the new cloud-native solution.
