Arcwide CEO Philippe Chaniot commented: “I am very excited to be at the helm of Arcwide.

The combination of our customers’ specific business expertise and IFS’ industry, technology, and service innovation gives us a clear advantage. Chaniot continued : “Unlike other companies, Arcwide provides a single unified experience over the entire customer lifecycle with IFS Cloud, building trust over time and ensuring continuity and value creation with every release.”

With this joint venture we want to reset expectations of what business value is and cement the vision we have for technology enabled business transformation. Working hand in hand with our customers and combining their specific business expertise with Arcwide’s unique technology and services value proposition means we are defining a new experience in building partnership and in creating value. Together we are more.”
IFS Chief Customer Officer Michael Ouissi commented: “IFS has seen tremendous success over the last few years because we are close to our customers, add to this the huge uptake of IFS Cloud in 2021 and it became clear that we, IFS, needed to invest and scale our deployment capability. BearingPoint have been a strong and successful partner for us, they understand our business and mirror our customers focus; expanding our relationship to build capacity was a natural step.” Ouissi added : “I am particularly excited about Arcwide because it is a continuation of IFS’s and BearingPoint’s respective strategies: delivering great experiences and accelerating time to value. Customers can feel very confident that the Arcwide teams will look to build equally strong relationships with them as IFS did.”
As well as benefiting from the two companies’ pedigree and global reach, Arcwide customers will benefit from deep industry expertise with individuals joining the venture from both organizations. Their focus will remain on unlocking value through IFS Cloud - SM, FSM, ERP, and EAM - adoption and accelerating time to value.
