Companies that use Infor ERP (verified customer list)

We dug into our own data to find which companies are using Infor. We also asked accountants, and ERP specialists in these companies to share any details they can on how they're using it. Here are real-world examples of how the biggest companies in the world are using Infor.

IKEA

Furniture and Home Furnishings · Malmö, Sweden · Furniture, Food

IKEA needs no introduction. The Swedish home furnishing giant sells flat-pack furniture and meatballs in more than 50 countries, but most people don't realize the food side is its own business with its own supply chain.

The most interesting thing about how IKEA uses Infor: the company runs Infor M3 specifically for its food business, completely separate from how it manages furniture. Swedish meatballs, salmon, plant balls, and the rest of the grocery range all flow through M3 from suppliers into IKEA's cold-chain warehouses and out to stores worldwide.

Right now IKEA is in the final stretch of moving M3 from its own servers into the cloud. That migration touches almost every part of the food business, from how orders flow to suppliers, to how products get tracked through warehouses, to how invoices get paid.

What's striking is how much custom infrastructure surrounds M3. The food business connects M3 to a warehouse system, a procurement platform called Ivalua, a transport booking tool called Transporeon, and several other tools that keep the cold chain running. All of that has to keep working through the cloud move.

IKEA is also using the migration to clean up its product data. The company is layering GS1 standards on top of M3, the global rules grocery companies use to identify items and trading partners with consistent codes. That means every meatball pack and salmon fillet gets tagged the same way IKEA's suppliers, warehouses, and retail stores can read it, no matter which country it's moving through.

ProMach

Machinery Manufacturing · Cincinnati, Ohio · Packaging machines

ProMach builds the machines that pack things you buy at the grocery store. Bottles get filled, boxes get labeled, blister packs get sealed, all on equipment ProMach designs and ships out of facilities across the U.S., Europe, and beyond. Their customers range from giant brands to small private companies.

The most interesting thing about how ProMach uses Infor: the company runs one Infor product, called Syteline, as the shared backbone across a whole family of brands it has bought over the years. Syteline is the system that tracks every nut, bolt, and finished machine through the factory. It tells the company what's in the warehouse, what's been ordered, what's been shipped, and what it all costs.

That matters because ProMach grows by buying other packaging companies. When a new company joins, it eventually gets moved onto Syteline so it can work the same way as the rest of the family. The corporate team in Cincinnati does the heavy lifting on these moves, then sends people on the road to set things up at the new location.

The work inside Syteline is hands-on and detailed. One brand uses it to keep track of raw materials, parts, half-built machines, and finished products, with a goal of getting inventory counts right 95% of the time. Another uses it to predict what they'll need, place orders with suppliers, and watch a dashboard for delays. A third pulls pricing and order history straight out of Syteline when customers call about replacement parts.

What's interesting is how custom the setup has become. ProMach has its own programmers who build add-ons and reports inside Syteline so each brand can run things its own way while st

Legacy Health

Hospitals and Health Care · Portland, Oregon · Hospitals, clinics

Legacy Health is a nonprofit hospital system in the Pacific Northwest. They run six hospitals and around 70 clinics across the Portland and Vancouver area, including a children's hospital, and employ thousands of doctors, nurses, and support staff.

The most interesting thing about how Legacy Health uses Infor: a hospital system is using Infor to run almost everything that isn't direct patient care. Finance, supply chain, accounting, HR, and payroll all sit on Infor. The clinical side has its own software, but everything that keeps the business of the hospital running, from paying vendors to scheduling staff, flows through Infor.

That's a wider use of Infor than most companies attempt. Going back to 2021 and 2022, Legacy was using an older Infor product called Lawson and pairing it with tools like Cloverleaf to move data between Infor and the hospital's clinical record system. The team's job was basically to keep the wires connected so a purchase order in one system could match a delivery in another.

Since then, Legacy has been moving onto a newer cloud version of Infor and adding more pieces of the platform. The list keeps growing: a financial management module, an HR talent module, a payroll module, a reporting tool called Birst, and the broader Infor operating system that ties them together. New people coming into the team are expected to get certified on all of those within their first year.

Two other tools sit alongside Infor and matter to the story. One is GHX, which handles medical supply ordering, and the other is Strata, which handles financial planning. Infor is the system of record, but Legacy stitches it together with these healthcare-specific tools so the supply chain and finance teams can see everything in one place.

What's interesting is how much custom work Legacy does on top of Infor. The team writes its own database queries, builds its own reports in Power BI, and uses spreadsheet tools to slice the data further. Infor gives them the foundation, but Legacy's people shape it into something specific to how a hospital system actually runs day to day.

Hunter Fan Company

Consumer Goods · Memphis, Tennessee · Ceiling fans

Hunter Fan Company has been making ceiling fans for 140 years. They invented the modern ceiling fan, and today they're a mid-size manufacturer based in Memphis, Tennessee, designing and engineering their fans there before shipping them to homes and stores around the country.

The most interesting thing about how Hunter uses Infor: a company you might think of as old-fashioned runs its entire operation on Infor LN, the same heavy-duty manufacturing system that bigger industrial companies use. Finance, supply chain, and the factory floor all flow through it.

Hunter takes the ceiling fan seriously as a product. They treat it like fine furniture that also has to work mechanically, which means the company has to track every motor, blade, light kit, and remote control through the system. Infor LN keeps tabs on all of that, from the moment a part is ordered to the moment a finished fan ships to a retailer.

The setup also stretches well beyond Infor. Hunter ties LN into a customer system, a manufacturing floor system, a product design system, and a warehouse system, so information flows between the people who design the fan, the people who build it, and the people who sell it. That's a lot of moving pieces for a 282-person company.

What's interesting is what's happening on the product data side. Hunter is rebuilding how it manages information about each fan, the names, descriptions, photos, and specs that show up on retailer websites and on Shopify. They're using a tool called Salsify to keep this clean and consistent, and they're connecting it to Infor LN so the engineering and sales sides of the company tell the same story about every product.

Stratas Foods

Food and Beverage · Memphis, Tennessee · Cooking oils, mayo, dressings, sauces

Stratas Foods makes the cooking oils, mayonnaise, salad dressings, and sauces that show up under store brands at the grocery store and on the shelves of restaurants. They're a joint venture between two big food companies, ACH Food Companies and Archer Daniels Midland, and they run nine plants across the U.S. from corporate offices in Memphis, Tennessee.

The most interesting thing about how Stratas uses Infor: a food company runs Infor M3 across every part of the business that touches a bottle of oil. The system follows each batch from the moment raw oil arrives at the plant by rail or pipe, through bottling and packaging, and out to the customer's truck.

What makes Stratas's setup unusual is how much of the food safety side runs through M3. When a batch of oil is made, the lab enters test results into the system. M3 then holds the inventory until the results pass, releases it for shipping, and generates the official safety paperwork that goes to the customer. The same system supports tracing a specific lot back to its ingredients if there's ever a recall, which is a legal must-have for a food company.

The system also reaches into the way Stratas plans production. The company uses Infor's advanced scheduling tool to figure out when each plant should run each product, balancing customer orders, raw material availability, and how much each line can produce. Decisions about which plant ships to which customer, and in what order, all flow through this layer of the system.

On the back end, M3 connects to Stratas's customers through electronic data interchange, the standard set of digital messages grocery chains and restaurants use to send purchase orders and pay invoices. Stratas processes more than a dozen of these message types through M3, which means orders, shipping notices, and bills mostly move between Stratas and its customers without anyone keying them in by hand.

What's interesting is that Stratas treats M3 as a data source, not just a transaction system. They pull information out of M3's data lake to build reports for finance, manufacturing, quality, sales, and supply chain, and they sync customer and product information between M3 and tools like Salesforce. The same system that runs the plant also feeds the dashboards executives use to run the company.

Prime Healthcare

Hospitals and Health Care · Ontario, California · Hospitals, clinics

Prime Healthcare is one of the country's largest private hospital systems, headquartered in Ontario, California. They run 54 hospitals and more than 360 outpatient locations across 15 states, with over 60,000 employees and physicians. The company is known for buying struggling hospitals and turning them around, which means they're constantly absorbing new locations into their systems.

The most interesting thing about how Prime uses Infor: a hospital chain that grows by acquisition uses Infor as the standard backbone every new hospital gets folded into. Finance, payroll, HR, and supply chain across all 54 hospitals run on Infor, which lets the corporate office manage the business side of dozens of acquired hospitals from one place.

Prime is in the middle of a big shift. The older version of Infor they've been on for years is called Lawson, and they're now moving everything to the newer cloud version called Infor CloudSuite. Both are running side by side while the migration plays out, which is why their team has to know both versions in detail.

Because Prime is a hospital company, the Infor side has to talk to the clinical side. Doctors and nurses use separate medical record systems called Epic and Meditech to chart patient care, and Prime's job is to make sure those clinical systems exchange the right information with Infor. When a hospital orders supplies for a surgery, for example, the supply order in Infor needs to line up with the patient procedure in the clinical record. Connecting these two worlds is its own ongoing project.

What's interesting is how Prime handles the acquisition pipeline. When Prime buys a new hospital, the team often travels to that hospital to help bring it onto the corporate Infor setup. New hospitals come in with their own random mix of finance and HR systems, and Prime's team standardizes them onto Infor so the new location starts behaving like the rest of the chain. That's a recurring task at this company in a way it isn't at most other hospital systems.

Stellant Systems

Aviation and Aerospace · Torrance, California · Power amplifiers, traveling wave tubes

Stellant Systems makes specialized electronic parts that go into satellites, defense radar systems, medical machines, and scientific equipment. Specifically, they build something called traveling wave tubes and power amplifiers, which are devices that boost signals to very high power levels. They're a 350-person company headquartered in Torrance, California, and most of their customers are aerospace, defense, and government organizations.

The most interesting thing about how Stellant uses Infor: a small, specialized aerospace manufacturer runs its whole operation on Infor LN Cloud, the same heavy-duty manufacturing system used by much bigger industrial companies. Finance, manufacturing, inventory, and procurement all run through it.

Stellant works in a heavily regulated world. Because they make parts that go into defense and space systems, U.S. government rules about who can see designs and how parts are tracked apply to almost everything they do. Infor LN holds the records that prove a part was made the right way, by the right people, with the right materials, which matters when the customer is the Department of Defense.

The way Stellant connects Infor to the rest of their operation is its own story. The system that handles the factory floor, the system that designs the products, and the system that tracks finances all have to talk to each other. Stellant uses a piece of Infor called ION as the translator between these systems, so when something changes in one place, the others find out about it.

What's interesting about Stellant is that they're on the cloud version of Infor LN, which is relatively new for manufacturers in their industry. Most defense and aerospace companies have been slow to move off older on-premise systems because of security concerns, but Stellant is one of the smaller, more agile companies that has made the jump.

Oshkosh Corporation

Motor Vehicle Manufacturing · Oshkosh, Wisconsin · Specialty trucks, lifts, airport equipment

Oshkosh Corporation is a big American industrial company that makes specialty trucks and machines for jobs most people never think about. They build the airport tugs that push planes back from gates, the fire trucks that show up at emergencies, the cement mixers that pour foundations, the lifts that workers stand on to fix high ceilings, and the military vehicles that carry troops. The company has about 17,000 employees worldwide and owns a long list of well-known brands like JLG, Pierce, McNeilus, Jerr-Dan, and Oshkosh Defense.

The most interesting thing about how Oshkosh uses Infor: a sprawling industrial company with brands all over the country runs a few different versions of Infor across its factories. Some plants are on Infor LN, others on Infor XA, and others on Infor CloudSuite Industrial (also called Syteline). It's not one clean setup but a patchwork that reflects how Oshkosh grew through acquisitions over the years.

The Aerotech division, which makes airport ground equipment, runs Infor LN as its main system. Engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, and finance all flow through it. The team builds custom add-ons inside Infor LN to fit the specific way an airport gear company works, which is different from how a fire truck company or a cement mixer company works.

A really interesting piece of the story is what's happening behind the scenes at Aerotech right now. The company is in the middle of consolidating multiple ERP systems onto Infor LN. One of their plants currently runs a different system called Syspro, and others are on Syteline 7, but everyone is being migrated onto Infor LN over 2026 and 2027. Their finance team has to keep the books clean across all three systems while the migration plays out.

What's interesting is how much custom integration work Oshkosh does on top of Infor. They use Infor's ION middleware to wire all these systems together, plus connections to product design tools like Siemens NX, Teamcenter, and Windchill. They also build out manufacturing execution systems and dashboards on top of Infor data. For a company this big, the day-to-day work is less about running Infor and more about gluing all of Infor's pieces together into something that feels like one system to the people on the factory floor.

Liebherr Group

Industrial Machinery Manufacturing · Bulle, Switzerland · Construction equipment, cranes, aerospace, refrigerators

Liebherr Group is a giant family-owned industrial company based in Switzerland with about 50,000 employees across 150 companies around the world. They make a huge range of heavy machinery: construction excavators, mining trucks, mobile cranes, tower cranes for skyscrapers, ship-loading cranes for ports, aerospace landing gear, and even household refrigerators.

The most interesting thing about how Liebherr uses Infor: a 75-year-old industrial dynasty runs Infor LN as the shared backbone across all its global divisions. Whether the factory is making maritime cranes in Rostock, aerospace landing gear in Lindenberg, fuel injection parts in Deggendorf, or refrigerators in Ulm, the same Infor LN system keeps the books, tracks parts, and runs purchasing.

The company has its own internal IT services arm, Liebherr-IT Services, which handles Infor LN rollouts and migrations across the whole group. They run implementations in places like Mexico, China, and other international locations, helping each Liebherr factory get onto the standard system. They also still support some older Liebherr factories running Baan IV, which is the predecessor to Infor LN, and gradually migrate those onto the newer version.

A really interesting piece of the story is what's happening in Rostock right now. The maritime crane division has moved its Infor LN to Amazon's AWS cloud, the first big Liebherr division to make the jump. The team there handles deployments, integrations, and security for the cloud setup, with full ISO and GDPR compliance. The rest of the group is watching how this goes, since Liebherr has traditionally run its own systems on its own servers, and a move to the cloud is a significant shift for a company this old and this big.

nVent

Appliances, Electrical, and Electronics Manufacturing · London, UK · Enclosures, cable management, grounding systems

nVent is a global electrical products company headquartered in London, with its US management office in Minneapolis. They make electrical connection and protection products like enclosures, cable management trays, grounding systems, and racks for data centers. The company has about 4,000 employees and was spun off from Pentair in 2018.

The most interesting thing about how nVent uses Infor: a mid-size global manufacturer is in the middle of a worldwide rollout of Infor M3, replacing a patchwork of older systems left over from a century of acquisitions. The team configures M3 for the Logistics module and trains users across nVent's plants.

A really interesting part of the story is what nVent runs alongside Infor M3. The company has a complicated mix of ERP systems behind it, including Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle Fusion, Epicor, Infor Syteline, and Microsoft SQL Server databases. A small team of database administrators keeps all of these running while the M3 rollout continues. The plan is to gradually move more of nVent onto Infor M3 over time, but for now the company has to support every system at once.

What's interesting is how nVent uses Infor M3 data downstream. They've built a modern data stack on top: M3 feeds into a Snowflake data warehouse on AWS, where engineers transform the data using dbt and surface it through Power BI and Tableau dashboards. So Infor M3 is not just running the factory floor; it's also feeding the analytics that the supply chain, finance, and customer data teams use to make decisions across the company.
