Industrial Manufacturing Norbev
Inforlogic Delivers Infor SyteLine Digital Transformation Project 20% Under Budget.
Norbev Goes Live with Infor SyteLine
Leading soft drinks manufacturer Norbev has successfully gone live with Infor SyteLine, alongside Infor Factory Track and Document Management. Implemented as part of a wider digital transformation strategy, the platform now streamlines core business processes, including financial management, scheduling, quality control, inventory and plant maintenance, while providing built-in business intelligence (BI) and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities to support future growth and scalability.
Selected based on its deep, last-mile manufacturing capability, coupled with an innovative cloud technology platform built on Amazon Web Services (AWS) to meet evolving requirements, Norbev went live following a six-month deployment that came in 20% under budget and ahead of plan.
“As soon as we saw Infor SyteLine, there was absolutely no question it was the right system,” comments Thomas Wilson, Finance Director, Norbev. “The others we reviewed simply didn’t have the breadth and depth of manufacturing capability, and we were sold on it just partway through the demo.”
“Infor Campus, combined with Process Intelligence, was hugely helpful in establishing and following a methodology designed around designated process flows and steps. And combined with our strong in-house skills and the Inforlogic team’s expertise, the project was delivered well before the anticipated go-live date, and 20% under budget and time, which is pretty much unheard of in this industry.”
“The Inforlogic team were very impressive,” Thomas concludes.
“Not only did they go the extra mile not just to listen, but to truly understand our needs, but they could also spin to address an alternative issue quickly and professionally, keeping track of all variables, explaining actions, and focusing all resources on us getting the most from the system as quickly as possible.”
Future-Proof Capabilities with Infor OS
In Infor OS, the platform on which Infor SyteLine is built, Norbev has future-proof capabilities at its helm, allowing the team to focus 100% of their efforts on the business’s future growth without system distractions. The beverage leader is already seeing value. Raw material costs, for example, represent an ongoing challenge, and though no digital platform in the world can change price volatility, Infor SyteLine manages stock levels efficiently to ensure customer demand is met, while minimising excess stock and waste.
In parallel, Infor Factory Track provides superior shop-floor visibility to see where a job is and how long it will take to complete, while Document Management expedites AP Automation. Invoices are automatically scanned, stored, and processed, bringing rigour, speed, and accuracy to this notoriously convoluted field. Looking ahead, APS will support more granular workflows to pinpoint bottlenecks on the shop floor, while Norbev anticipates improved procurement processes through the system’s ability to support, streamline, and improve supplier visibility.

“We’re delighted to be supporting digital transformation via Infor SyteLine to Norbev, one of a growing number of Northern Ireland-based customers,” comments Chris Stock, Managing Director, Inforlogic.
“We are even more delighted to have delivered this project significantly under budget and well ahead of the scheduled go-live date. It’s a testament to the team’s expertise, along with the project methodology, that this project was completed in less than six months, and we’re looking forward to seeing Norbev reap increased value and business benefits in the months ahead.”
