Platned works with you to connect systems, optimise processes and unlock the full value of IFS Cloud™, supporting a more efficient and resilient organisation.
Energy, Utility and Resources
Energy, utilities and resources organisations are under growing pressure to modernise while maintaining reliability. Ageing infrastructure, rising demand and the shift towards decentralised and low-carbon energy are increasing operational complexity.
At the same time, extreme weather, evolving regulation and supply chain constraints are making it harder to plan, maintain and invest with confidence.
Platned helps you bring control back into your operations. With IFS Cloud™, you can connect assets, people and data in one platform, enabling better decision-making, improved asset performance and more efficient, resilient operations.
Power generation (renewables)
One of the major challenges for generators surrounds integrating the variable and fluctuating supply from renewable energy sources like solar and wind. ERP systems can provide real-time data analytics and forecasting to optimise energy production and grid performance, helping operators optimise balance supply against demand across the grid.
Maintaining and managing renewable energy assets such as wind turbines and solar panels require careful asset management. ERP systems include asset management tools that help schedule maintenance, track asset performance, and predict failures, enhancing reliability and lifespan.
New renewable energy projects are typically large-scale, often in remote locations. Platned’s ERP solutions offer project management, resource planning and supply chain management tools that help plan, optimise, execute, and monitor projects, ensuring they are completed on time and within budget, supported by efficient maintenance schedules.
Adhering to Environmental regulations and reporting requirements can be complex. ERP software offers dedicated compliance management modules that track and report environmental impact, ensuring compliance.
Oil & gas
Oil and gas organisations are under pressure to improve efficiency while navigating volatile markets, ageing assets and increasing regulatory expectations. Maintaining safe, reliable operations while controlling costs is becoming more complex.
At the same time, digital transformation and evolving energy strategies are creating new opportunities to improve performance and resilience.
Platned helps you take control with IFS Cloud™, connecting assets, operations and data in one platform. This enables better decision-making, improved asset reliability and more efficient, compliant operations across upstream, midstream and downstream activities.
Waste and water management
Water and wastewater treatment operators are subject to strict regulatory compliance for water quality and sewerage treatment. Moreover, water sources increasingly face pollution from organic compounds, heavy metals, and emerging contaminants. ERP systems provide advanced compliance management tools that help monitor water quality, track regulatory changes, and generate necessary reports.
The wastewater infrastructure is aging, demanding proactive maintenance and major infrastructure upgrade projects. ERP software offers asset management modules that can schedule and track maintenance, optimise resource allocation, and predict infrastructure needs.
Climate change increases the need to efficiently manage water resources to meet demand while preserving supply. ERP systems offer resource planning tools that help balance water distribution, manage consumption, and detect leaks or network inefficiencies.
Operators need to improve the efficiency of water and wastewater treatment processes. ERP solutions automate operational processes, provide real-time monitoring, and enhance process optimization, reducing costs and improving service delivery.
Customer expectations regarding service and billing are rising. ERP systems offer Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and billing modules that streamline customer interactions, automate billing, and improve service quality.
