Inforum 2007 Showcases Solutions Designed to Drive Efficiencies and Profitability
Atlanta, GA, August 02, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Infor today announced it will showcase nearly 20 educational sessions that explore the critical challenges facing today’s automotive manufacturers and suppliers at the company’s global annual user conference, Inforum 2007, being held September 9-12 at Las Vegas’ Sands Expo and Convention Center. Infor experts, partners and automotive customers including Meridian Automotive Systems and AVL, among others, will present their best practices, case studies, and tips and techniques for simplifying business processes with Infor’s business-specific solutions for the automotive industry.
In a special session, Wolfram Schmid, Infor’s director of industry and product marketing for Automotive, will present “Trends, Challenges, and Solutions for Success in the Global Automotive Industry” on Wednesday, September 12, 2007. The session will examine how companies can utilize Infor’s industry-leading automotive solutions to yield significant business performance improvements, which efficiently and cost-effectively meet regulatory compliance requirements, as well as customer and supplier demands.
“The automotive industry is experiencing an unprecedented transformation as challenges from globalization, coupled with overcapacity, add new dimensions to an already volatile marketplace,” said Kevin Piotrowski, Infor’s director of industry and product marketing. “Inforum provides automotive organizations practical advice they can begin using immediately to navigate this ever-changing landscape and ensure their success in the global market.”
Other topics explored at Inforum include “Strategic Market Driven Investments,” “Value Stream Mapping,” “Product Roadmaps,” “Maximizing Your IT Investment,” and a Q & A session where attendees will interact with Infor executives to discuss solutions for their most critical business issues. Several automotive manufacturers will present on topics including “Achieving Automotive Excellence,” “Strategic Implementation Planning,” “Integrating Time and Attendance,” and “Attaining Excellence as a 3PL.”
Inforum 2007 offers networking opportunities such as ConnectAtInforum.com, a business matchmaking tool to help customers connect with like-minded peers prior to and during the conference, and Enterprising Square, a dedicated space organized into Infor solution communities to encourage idea sharing between Inforum activities.
Beginning in August, attendees can create a conference agenda using a new tool, U-Builder, on Inforum2007.com. U-Builder enables attendees to customize their schedule based on personal interests, allowing them to plan and organize all of their conference activities and manage conflicts.
Inforum 2007 is expected to attract customers and partners from around the world who come to learn about new business opportunities, collaborate on Infor's business-specific solutions, and get the latest story on the product roadmaps for their solutions.
