Matt Breslin, President of Americas at IFS, expressed excitement over the formation of this new leader within the IFS ecosystem, citing the required scale and technical depth the partnership offers. This platform is simultaneously designed to assist North American clients throughout the various stages of strategy, implementation, and optimization processes as the adoption of IFS Cloud and IFS.ai gathers momentum.

A Focus on Asset- and Service-Intensive Industries

The combined expertise of JumpModel and Gogh spans crucial sectors such as aerospace, defense, manufacturing, energy, utilities, and telecommunications. In these industries, IFS plays a pivotal role in operations, service delivery, and enhancing asset performance. This specialization allows the new entity to provide tailored solutions that deliver tangible business benefits, reinforcing the value that clients can derive from their IFS investments.

Superstep Capital's Long-Term Vision

Backing the merger is Superstep Capital, a private equity firm dedicated to scaling exceptional digital services businesses. Their investment aims to bolster long-term growth focusing on leadership development, enhancing delivery infrastructure, amplifying go-to-market strategies, and expanding partnerships within the IFS space. Stuart Coleman, Managing Partner at Superstep Capital, stated that they are committed to the vision of establishing the leading independent IFS partner in North America.

The merger with Gogh greatly enhances their capacity to support diverse projects in ERP, cloud, and service management in an integrated, enterprise-ready manner.

Eric Costanzo, Managing Director of Gogh, remarked that the partnership solidifies the attributes their clients value most - expertise, continuity, and collaboration.
