IFS Nexus Black™ offers co-creation of tailored AI solutions, enabling asset-intensive industries to leap ahead with speed and security
IFS has unveiled Nexus Black, a bold strategic innovation program designed to accelerate high-impact AI adoption for industrial enterprises. Announced in Dubai, the program aims to fill the gap between rigid enterprise tools and fragmented niche AI offerings.
Nexus Black is built on IFS.ai and provides a structured, agile co-creation model that brings together IFS’s industrial expertise, AI engineers, and domain architects to solve complex, bespoke challenges across industries like manufacturing, utilities, and logistics.
The offering includes a four-phase development process—Problem Definition, Proof of Value, Accelerated Development, and Digital Continuity—and access to contextual intelligence powered by agentic AI, ensuring rapid deployment of scalable solutions.
“Nexus Black brings the agility of a startup, the context of an industrial giant, and the trust of a proven enterprise leader.” — Mark Moffat, CEO, IFS
“Too many businesses are stuck choosing between inflexible enterprise tools or niche AI vendors with no roadmap to scale,” said Mark Moffat, CEO of IFS. “Nexus Black is how we help our customers leap ahead—not just catch up.”
According to Matt Kempson, SVP at IFS, what differentiates Nexus Black is how IFS applies AI: rapidly, with deep industrial context, and in close collaboration with customers to create measurable outcomes.
Early use cases include predictive maintenance, AI copilots for service, intelligent automation for finance and supply chain, and scheduling optimization—all developed ahead of general availability under a co-investment model that gives customers a first-mover advantage.
For organizations seeking to embed AI into live operations with speed, trust, and strategic value, Nexus Black is IFS’s industrial-grade answer to next-gen innovation.
