Infor Announces New Public Sector Partnerships

Business application software vendor Infor has added three new companies to the Infor Partner Network as it develops implementation support and services for its North American public sector customers.

The addition of Altum, Gcom Software and Cybermedia Technologies (CTEC) is expected to help Infor bring its business application and management solution software to organizations including state, local and federal government agencies; schools, libraries and public safety offices, according to the announcement.

As partners, each company will gain access to exclusive IPN tools like Infor Launchpad, which will give customers direct access to local resources and consultants who specialize in public sector technology, according to the company.

“This year Infor will continue to focus on expanding the IPN with well qualified partners such as these who can provide valuable, industry-specific assets to our customers,” said Lynn Sauder, vice president of Global Alliances at Infor, in a statement. “We also plan to consistently enhance our enablement initiatives to help partners bring added value to each phase of the product lifecycle and become an integral component of our companywide strategy to deliver beautiful business applications with deep micro-vertical functionality.”

Each partner will play a specific role in delivering Infor’s management solutions to customers, according to the company.

Gcom Software will focus on delivering Infor’s Public Sector Suite and Enterprise Asset Management solutions to organizations looking to improve equipment maintenance and permitting to billing and emergency dispatch. Altum and Cybermedia Technologies will deliver solutions including Infor Dynamic Enterprise Performance Management to customer agencies to help provide flexible deployment options for hybrid cloud operations management.

“Infor continually invests in resources for its partner community, which shows us that they recognize the mutual benefit of these relationships and are committed to equipping partners with the tools necessary to succeed,” said Raj Ramesh, chief executive officer at CTEC. “Our in-depth knowledge of the public sector will allow Infor customers to capitalize on the skills and insight we’ve developed over the last twenty years, helping them to maximize their return on investment from leading technologies such as Infor ION and Infor Ming.le.”
