Infor M3 now integrated with GT Nexus Order Collaboration

Infor, a provider of business applications specialised by industry and built for the cloud, has announced a standard Infor ION integration between Infor M3 and GT Nexus Order Collaboration. The integration will better support fashion and distribution companies in sourcing discrete products by providing more visibility and a single version of purchase order information with suppliers.

Infor M3 is an enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution that offers flexibility in operations, technology, and scale. As a multisite, multicountry, and multicompany solution, Infor M3 empowers organisations to adapt to changing business needs and provides flexibility in managing mixed-mode and complex environments. GT Nexus, an Infor company, provides a supply chain network platform that companies can use to orchestrate their supply chains.

GT Nexus connects companies to their supply chain partners (suppliers, manufacturers, third party logistics firms [3PLs], carriers, etc.) to enable visibility, collaboration, and automated execution of supply chain processes.

By integrating GT Nexus Order Collaboration with Infor M3, organisations can connect with suppliers to share, confirm, and negotiate purchase orders. In addition, users can track the status of their suppliers' negotiations and confirmations directly from the Infor M3 order screen. Electronic sharing, confirming, and negotiating purchase orders, helps companies to reduce time-to-market and the risk of errors.

"Organisations that closely work with their suppliers, such as fashion brands and retailers, often rely on e-mail, phone calls, spreadsheets passed back and forth to share and negotiate on purchase orders, costing time and effort, and making it very difficult to keep track of changes. In addition, manual processes add latency to the order confirmation and negotiation process, resulting in the ERP being out of sync with the actual terms being executed by the supplier," said Andrew Dalziel, Senior Director, industry and solution strategy, Infor.

"With this new integration, users are instantly connected and can streamline the process of sharing information - which is critical in such a competitive business environment. Our organisation is committed to supporting value chain visibility and collaboration."
