The swift advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) is creating new possibilities for Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems. By integrating data from various business functions with machine learning, companies can enhance operations and enable systems to anticipate needs and support daily activities more intelligently. AI is increasingly being integrated across multiple departments, several of which are explored in more detail below. 

What advantages does AI bring for my company?

1. Increased efficiency & automation

• Enterprise AI automates routine tasks such as data entry, document management, approvals and procurement – allowing employees to focus on more demanding, value-adding activities
• Smart Parts Matching: Find suitable components in seconds instead of minutes – 75% faster and higher system availability

2. Cost reduction

• Reduces storage costs (example: 5% savings, corresponding millions) through optimized master data and inventory management
• Extended service life of assets thanks to predictive maintenance: fewer unplanned breakdowns & lower maintenance costs

3. Predictions & predictive intelligence

• Uses historical data, patterns and market conditions to forecast demand, budget variances or opportunities
• Model-based decision-making: e.g. discount recommendations in sales negotiations

4. Generative AI in Infor GenAI
