Samra had already achieved a high level of business continuity by deploying Infor EAM, which helped it gain its ISO55000 certification and placed it in a strong position when COVID-19 hit.

While 78% of CIOs from logistics, manufacturing and trade companies in the Middle East, Turkey, and Africa (META) region are currently engaged in or about to start a formal digital transformation program, much of their success may hinge on the type of platform they adopt.

Industry-specific applications developed for sectors such as manufacturing, healthcare, distribution, public sector, retail and hospitality have contributed to Infor now having more than 14,000 customers in the Infor Cloud.
