The short answer

What are IFS managed services?

IFS managed services (also called IFS application managed services, or AMS) means handing day-to-day support of your IFS system to a specialist partner under a service agreement. Inivos takes your first-, second- and third-line tickets, maintains your configurations and custom code, applies IFS Cloud service updates and releases, and looks after the database and environments, on a 24x5 or 24x7 schedule.

What's included in IFS managed services

Pick the scope you need. Most customers start with help desk, functional support and release management, then add technical services as their system grows.

Help desk (first-line support)

Logging, triage and resolution of everyday user issues, so your internal IT team stops being the IFS help desk.

Functional product support

Finance, supply chain, manufacturing, projects, service and maintenance: consultants who know the IFS modules you actually run.

Code and modification maintenance

Ongoing care of custom objects, modifications, reports and integrations, retested after every update.

Release and update management (CRIM)

Planning, testing and applying IFS Cloud service updates and twice-yearly releases, and patch installation on IFS Applications.

Database and environment support

Oracle housekeeping and performance tuning, environment refreshes, and user access and security set-up.

Root-cause analysis and training

We fix the cause, not just the ticket: recurring-issue reviews, focused user training and on-site programmes when you need them.

24x5, 24x7 or ad-hoc: which IFS support model do you need?

24x5 support

Cover across your working week, including early and late shifts. Right for most single-region manufacturers and distributors whose IFS isn't used overnight or at weekends.

24x7 support

Round-the-clock cover for operations that never stop: multi-site manufacturing, field service, asset-intensive operations and businesses spread across time zones.

Ad-hoc support

No long-term commitment: expert help when you need it, for teams that run IFS in-house and want a specialist to call on.

Response and resolution targets for each priority level are written into your service agreement, along with the reporting you receive each month.

Switching IFS support partners without disruption

Changing support provider is mostly a knowledge-transfer exercise. We run it in four stages and confirm the length of each in the proposal, based on how many modifications and integrations you have.

1

Discovery and access

We review your IFS version, modules, modifications, integrations, open tickets and current service levels.

2

Knowledge transfer

We shadow your current provider or in-house team and document customisations, integrations and runbooks.

3

Parallel running

We work tickets alongside the outgoing provider until the queue and the handover checklist are clear.

4

Steady state and improvement

Monthly service reviews, a backlog of fixes for recurring issues, and a roadmap for upgrades and new IFS features.

Which IFS versions do you support?

IFS Cloud and IFS Applications, including Apps 10. Standard support for IFS Applications 10 ended on 27 March 2025 and extended support ends on 27 March 2028, so many Apps 10 customers pair managed services with a planned upgrade to IFS Cloud. One team then supports you before, during and after the move.

IFS customers we work with include Toyota Lanka, Lanka Milk Foods, D. Samson & Sons, Bombay Sweets, Global Sea Food and Empire Teas, across manufacturing, food and beverage, distribution and services.

Frequently asked questions

How much do IFS managed services cost?

It depends on your users and modules, how many customisations you run, and whether you need 24x5 or 24x7 cover. Most customers choose a monthly retainer with a set number of hours; ad-hoc support is billed by the hour. We quote after a short review of your environment.

Can you support customisations built by another partner?

Yes. Knowledge transfer covers custom objects, modifications, reports and integrations, and we document anything that isn't documented yet.

Do you handle IFS Cloud service updates and releases?

Yes. We plan, test and apply service updates and the twice-yearly IFS Cloud releases, and retest your customisations and integrations each time.

Where is the support team based?

The core team works from Colombo, Sri Lanka, with offices in Irving (Texas), Cardiff (UK) and Singapore. Colombo overlaps working hours in Europe, the Middle East and Asia Pacific, and 24x7 cover extends to the Americas.

Can you also help with IFS licensing and upgrades?

Yes. As an IFS Channel and Services Partner we can manage your IFS Cloud subscription, plan your upgrade and support you afterwards, under one relationship.

How quickly can you take over support?

That depends on system access and knowledge transfer. We agree a transition plan and a go-live date for support in the proposal.
