Ensign-Bickford Aerospace and Defense
The combination of steady business growth and the demanding nature of the defense industry led Ensign-Bickford Aerospace and Defense Co. (EBA&D), Simsbury, Connecticut, and Graham, Kentucky, to implement IFS Solutions. EBA&D is using IFS software for production planning and control, supply chain management, enterprise operational intelligence, engineering, project management, workforce management, quality management, and document management. EBA&D needed a solution that could unite dozens of buildings, some of which are not serviced with telecommunications and even electricity for obvious safety reasons on a single IT platform.
