Aerospace Services Provider Sabreliner Corporation Goes Live with IFS Applications
01.01.70
ITASCA, ILL., Dec 01, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
Sabreliner Corporation, a diversified aviation services company that is
recognized worldwide for keeping older aircraft in flight and supporting
new aircraft production, has gone live on IFS Applications.
The company has implemented a broad spectrum of IFS Applications
components including Financials, Distribution, Manufacturing,
Maintenance, Sales and Support, and Human Resources.
"The day we implemented our legacy system 10 years ago, we maxed out its
capabilities," Sabreliner CIO Steve DeBarry said. "With IFS
Applications, we know we can grow in a number of areas by implementing
new functionalities that already exist in IFS's solution. With this
initial implementation, we have only replaced the functionality provided
by our legacy system. In future phases, we plan to replace other
standalone systems used throughout the company. In addition, we will
build on the functionality in IFS Applications to better manage our
business through inventory requirements planning and cross facility
workforce scheduling, which will allow us to define labor requirements
across our four operational facilities. One of those facilities is a
manufacturing environment which requires internal scheduling by work
center and is currently being managed on a separate, standalone system.
We plan to use IFS Applications to replace that system so we have
visibility of our backlog, labor requirements and materials requirements
from all four facilities in one integrated system."

Faceoff: Ron Swanson vs. Jack Donaghy
01.01.70
Team Swanson
Ron Ulysses Swanson is not just a man working for a small town government in the parks and recreation department. He is the man that every boy wants to grow up to be. He drinks whiskey, loves empowered women, believes mankind should have the freedom to do whatever the heck it wants to do, and most importantly: He loves meat.
Ron likes to keep his emotions to a minimum, as a hilarious Internet meme shows all his facial expressions in different situations; they are all exactly the same face (except when he is drunk on Tom Haverford’s Snake Juice). A straight face with his left eyebrow raised a little bit to give the impression that the viewer is constantly being judged. He sometimes calls people by the wrong name to remind them that he doesn’t really care about them. He once started a fight in the office because it was “getting a little too chummy around here.” He blamed the broken coffee pot on someone in the office, although he was the real one who broke it because, “it burned me, so I punched it.”
