Industrial AI for the work you do
IFS Intelligence
See what needs attention.
Do something about it.
A delayed part can change a production plan. An equipment fault can put a customer commitment at risk. IFS Intelligence helps your people follow those connections, understand their options and move work forward.
Connected to your operations. Governed by your rules.
A question is the starting point
Bring the wider picture into everyday decisions.
When a delivery is at risk, the answer may sit across stock records, supplier updates, maintenance work and production schedules. Finding it can mean opening several systems and asking several people.
IFS Intelligence works with live operational data from IFS and connected systems. It helps explain the cause, assess the impact and prepare a response. Ask in everyday language, see the supporting sources and carry approved work forward from the same conversation.

The film follows a maintenance problem from diagnosis to its wider production impact. It introduces live Lenses, Digital Workers that prepare work for approval, and support for configuring and extending IFS, then explains the controls behind those actions.
Put your operational data to work
Ask a question.
Follow the impact.
Ask about a late delivery, a failing asset or a changing production plan in everyday language. IFS Intelligence brings the relevant operational information together, helping your team understand the knock-on effects and prepare the next step.
For example: “Which supplier delays could affect next week’s production?”
Cowork / Loops / Runway
Three ways to put it to work.
Work through a decision, hand over a defined process or develop a change to IFS. Each starts with the context of your business.
Work with AI
Cowork
Work through the question.
Investigate a shipment, asset or work order with the relevant context in view. Cowork shows its sources and helps prepare record changes, so an explanation can become an approved update in IFS.
Delegate to AI
Loops
Hand over a defined process.
Digital Workers can follow up supplier confirmations, check parts availability and handle order updates across connected systems. They work within agreed limits and bring a person in when a decision or approval is needed.
Build with AI
Runway
Make a requirement easier to build.
Turn a plain-language requirement into a specification and prototype for review. Developers then use AI support to build and test the change, releasing it through the standard IFS deployment process.
Useful today. Ready for tomorrow.
Keep the work you will use again.
Some questions come back every morning. Which jobs are at risk? Which orders need attention?
Lens: return to a live view.
Keep an answer as an interactive view connected to live IFS data. Explore what has changed and continue working from it.
Skills: repeat a useful process.
Save a sequence of steps to run on demand or on a schedule, within established permissions and approval requirements.
Business context. Clear boundaries.
Bring your whole operation into the picture.
An answer about a work order is more useful when it accounts for the asset, the people and the parts involved. IFS Intelligence draws on the records, processes and relationships in your business to put the question in context.
The Industrial AI Harness governs that work. Existing identities, permissions and approval requirements determine what AI can see and change. Your teams can review its actions, trace decisions and step in where human judgment is needed.
01 / Access
The right information.
Access follows established identities and permissions. AI works with the information the user is authorized to see.
02 / Action
Defined limits and review.
Business rules and approval requirements govern changes. Verification and escalation help identify work that needs human judgment.
03 / Accountability
A record you can follow.
Decisions and actions are logged for review, so teams can trace what happened and supervise delegated work.
Across your operation
Start with a real piece of work.
Invest
Projects and capital work
Investigate a slipping project and prepare a change request for review.
Produce
Production and supply chain
Assess how a stopped line affects orders and prepare the response.
Maintain
Assets and field service
Check the service impact of a fault and prepare work or scheduling changes.
Operate
Business operations
Prepare purchase requisitions, time entries or receivables follow-ups through a conversation.
Illustrative use cases. The relevant permissions, business rules and approvals apply.

-
01 / The task
What takes the time?
Identify the question, process or IFS change your team wants to tackle.

02 / The context
What does it depend on?
Consider the data, systems and people involved, including the approvals that matter.
-
03 / The next step
What would better look like?
Discuss a sensible starting point and how you would assess the result.
Before you start
A few practical questions.
Can it update records as well as answer questions?
Yes. IFS Intelligence can prepare and execute authorized changes, subject to the permissions, business rules and approvals that apply to the work.
How much work can we delegate?
Your organization sets the boundaries. Defined workflows can run in the background, with escalation when judgment or approval is required. Human review remains part of how the work is governed.
Is it included in our current IFS license?
Coverage depends on your agreement. IFS describes an enterprise-wide license covering in-scope IFS software the customer has licensed, with a fair-usage entitlement for AI Executions. Confirm the commercial terms and suitability for your environment before planning adoption.
Where should we begin?
Choose one piece of work your team knows well. Bring the process, the information it relies on and the result you want to improve to a conversation with RutterKey.
Your operation. Your next step.
What would you ask IFS Intelligence?
Start with the question that takes too long to answer, or the process that takes too much effort to complete. Let's talk about where IFS Intelligence could help.
