American Aerospace & Defense Summit 2026

Many aerospace and defense organizations are running critical programs on ERP systems that were never built for their industry. The result often means heavy customizations, compliance tracked in spreadsheets, and part histories scattered across disconnected tools.

At the American Aerospace & Defense Summit, meet with Arcwide to see a better way forward. IFS Cloud was designed with A&D as a core industry, bringing ERP, enterprise asset management (EAM), maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO), and field service together on a single platform with traceability and export control built in.

Why meet with Arcwide at the Summit?

  • Traceability You Can Prove

    Track every part, lot, and serial number from supplier receipt through production, delivery, and service, so you can answer an auditor or customer in minutes instead of days.

  • One Platform, Fewer Workarounds

    Replace bolt-on tools and costly customizations with one solution that connects ERP, EAM, MRO, and field service, so programs are managed from design through production and long-term support.

  • A&D Expertise

    Work with consultants who understand defense contracts, regulatory audits, and the realities of implementing ERP in a highly regulated environment.

  • Compliance Built In

    IFS Cloud supports ITAR and export control requirements within everyday transactions, helping you catch restricted items and parties before orders ship rather than after.

General-purpose ERP systems can handle finance and HR, but A&D operations demand more: long program lifecycles, precision engineering, intensive quality control, and strict security requirements. When the ERP can't keep up, teams rely on customizations and manual workarounds, and traceability is often the first thing to break, with serial numbers and part histories scattered across spreadsheets and disconnected systems.

IFS Cloud brings ERP, EAM, MRO, and field service together on one platform. Its project-based structure manages contracts and costs from design through production, aftermarket service, and phase-out. Built-in serialization and traceability follow every part from supplier receipt through assembly, delivery, and maintenance, creating a complete as-built and as-maintained record. Field technicians and maintenance teams work from the same data, even in remote or disconnected environments.

Arcwide helps A&D organizations make the move with confidence, guiding the transition from legacy systems to IFS Cloud with a focus on compliance, data integrity, and minimal disruption to active programs.
