Struggling with SAP? Unlock a Smoother ERP Future with IFS and RutterKey Solutions
March 25, 2025We’re excited to announce that RutterKey Solutions is now an official Channel Partner of IFS. After a fantastic onsite meeting in Itasca with the IFS team - and with many of our colleagues joining online - we’re energized and ready to take this next step together.
What It Means to Be an IFS Channel Partner
Being a Channel Partner with IFS is more than just a title. It represents a deeper, strategic alignment and a shared commitment to helping organizations get the most out of IFS’s platform and solutions.
Here’s what it actually means...
Reselling and delivering solutions: As a Channel Partner, we are authorized to resell IFS software, co-sell opportunities, and provide additional services around IFS solutions. This isn’t just about software - it’s about helping businesses implement, adopt, and thrive with IFS tools.
Integration into the partner ecosystem: We gain access to IFS enablement programs, training through the IFS Academy, marketing support, and joint business planning. This ensures our team is fully equipped to guide clients with confidence and expertise.
A true two-way partnership: We bring industry know-how, long-term client relationships, and delivery experience; IFS brings a powerful platform, innovation, and ecosystem support. Together, we can tackle complex challenges and deliver practical solutions.
Better outcomes for clients: For our clients, this means working with a partner that’s not just familiar with IFS but formally trained, certified, and fully supported to implement solutions that address real-world business challenges.
In short, this partnership positions RutterKey Solutions to provide end-to-end support - from planning and implementing IFS solutions to ongoing optimization and guidance - backed by the IFS partner network.
Why This Partnership Matters for RutterKey Solutions
Partnering with IFS allows us to expand the ways we can help our clients succeed. It strengthens our ability to deliver practical solutions to real problems, whether it’s streamlining operations, improving asset management, or helping teams work smarter with IFS software. This is about creating real impact in the day-to-day of businesses, not just deploying software.
For Bruce Mortimer, CEO & Managing Director of RutterKey Solutions, this partnership represents both a continuation of a long-standing relationship with IFS and an exciting new chapter in the company’s evolution:
"Channel partnership is the logical next step in RutterKey’s relationship with IFS, which began over 18 years ago. It is also a personal milestone, as my professional relationship with IFS began over 21 years ago. On behalf of the entire RutterKey team, we look forward to continuing to contribute to this community."

Looking Ahead
The meeting in Itasca marked the start of this shared journey. We left inspired by the collaboration and alignment between our teams, and we’re excited to start putting these plans into action.
