In its publication “Enterprise Asset Management and Field Service Management Global Market Research Study,” ARC Advisory Group recognizes IFS as the leading supplier to the global oil and gas industry. The report identifies as one of IFS’s strengths the ability to rapidly develop new components quickly and efficiently to ensure that the application continues to provide the deep functionality needs of the end user.

For more than 20 years, we have worked closely with leading EPCI contractors, drilling contractors, system/equipment suppliers and mobile asset owners to ensure our solutions meet the industry’s stringent requirements.”
