Why Berkeley Group chose IFS

Berkeley Group ran a rigorous evaluation before selecting IFS as their ERP platform. Four decisive factors shaped the decision: an evergreen solution with no disruptive upgrade cycles; a project-centric architecture by design; the ability to consolidate 200 companies onto one core ERP backbone; and a genuine step up from accounting-only to true integrated project financial control.

  • “Project costing is now integrated within the application. We can look at things by plot, by phase, by the project as a whole, and by the development as a whole.” Chris Gilbert, MD and Group Head of IT, Berkeley Group”
