Infor completes acquisition of TDCI

Infor, provider of business application software serving more than 70,000 customers, has completed the acquisition of TDCI, Inc. The acquisition, initially announced on 23 April, brings leading product configuration management for manufacturers and distributors of customisable products and services into the Infor product portfolio. The expanded capabilities will help companies capture the knowledge of their product experts in easily maintained product models, guide users through selection of the product, features, options, and dimensions that best fit their needs, and generate a wide range of configuration-specific outputs, including images, models, and documents.

The TDCI Product Configuration Management solution includes:

• TDCI Product Configurator - Provides product or other configuration services to a variety of applications including ERP, CRM, and sales solutions.
• TDCI Sales Portal - Provides a web portal for sales people and trading partners to quote and order configured and non-configured products.
• TDCI Flex Suite for the generation of 2D drawings, 3D models, photo-realistic images, and dynamic documents.

TDCI products are already integrated with many leading Infor ERP applications, including Infor LN, Infor SyteLine, Infor XA, and Infor Distribution SX.e. Infor expects to integrate capabilities from TDCI with additional Infor ERP products. The transaction also includes TDCI's MAC-PAC XE, an ERP system for discrete manufacturers.

Financial terms of the proposed transaction are not being disclosed.
