Infor Partners

Updated July 2026.

An Infor partner is an IT consulting firm, value-added reseller (VAR), or systems integrator certified by Infor to sell, implement, and support Infor ERP products — including CloudSuite Industrial (SyteLine), Infor M3, Infor LN, and CloudSuite Distribution. To choose one, match the partner's certified product line and industry track record to your own, then verify their Infor Partner Network (IPN) tier; the IPN comprises approximately 770 certified companies worldwide as of 2026.

This directory curates independent, vendor-neutral Infor partner listings so you can shortlist consultants and resellers by product family, industry, and region — without the sales filter of the official vendor finder. Below the guide you will find partner cards for the USA, United Kingdom, Canada, and beyond. First, use the sections that follow to work out which type of Infor partner your project actually needs, because picking the wrong specialism is the single most common cause of a stalled Infor implementation.

What Is an Infor Partner?

Infor sells almost all of its ERP products through, or alongside, a channel of certified third-party firms rather than a large in-house delivery arm. An Infor partner is any organisation that Infor has vetted and authorised to resell licences, deliver implementations, build integrations, or provide ongoing support for Infor software. In practice that covers three very different kinds of company: boutique consultancies that live and breathe one product (say, CloudSuite Industrial/SyteLine for mid-market manufacturers), large global systems integrators that run multi-country CloudSuite rollouts, and technology vendors whose software or cloud platform plugs into the Infor stack.

Because Infor's product portfolio is unusually industry-specific — its "CloudSuite" applications are pre-configured for micro-verticals such as automotive, aerospace and defense, food and beverage, fashion, healthcare, and distribution — the partner you choose matters more than it does for a horizontal ERP. A partner who has delivered forty SyteLine go-lives in discrete manufacturing is not automatically the right firm for an Infor M3 food-and-beverage project, even though both are "Infor partners." Understanding the product families, described next, is the fastest way to filter the market.

Infor Partner Network (IPN): How It Works

The Infor Partner Network (IPN) is Infor's global framework for authorising, training, and tiering its channel. Partners join the IPN, certify their consultants on specific Infor products, and are then recognised at ascending tiers based on certifications held, revenue delivered, and customer-success outcomes. As of 2026 the IPN comprises approximately 770 certified companies across implementation, advisory, technology, and reseller roles.

IPN membership is what separates a genuine Infor partner from a generalist ERP consultancy that merely claims Infor experience. Certified partners get access to Infor's implementation accelerators, product roadmaps, and support escalation paths — which is why an IPN tier is one of the criteria you should always confirm. Infor groups its channel into four functional partner types:

• Implementation (Channel) Partners — deliver the actual configuration, data migration, testing, training, and go-live. This is the partner most buyers are looking for.
• Advisory & Consulting Partners — provide business-process design, ERP selection, and change-management independent of a specific implementation.
• Technology (Alliance) Partners — supply the platform and complementary software: hosting (e.g. AWS, on which Infor's cloud runs), analytics, integration middleware, and best-of-breed add-ons.
• Reseller / VAR Partners — sell Infor licences and typically bundle implementation and first-line support, common in the SMB SyteLine and Distribution SX.e markets.

Most buyers ultimately contract an implementation partner or reseller; the other two types support the project rather than run it.

Infor Products Covered by Partners

Infor is not one ERP — it is a portfolio of industry-specific products, and partners specialise by product line. Use the table below to identify which product (and therefore which partner specialism) fits your business. If you are still weighing Infor against alternatives, our ERP vendor comparison hub and the side-by-side comparison tool map these products against competitors.

Partners rarely cover the whole portfolio. A SyteLine specialist and an M3 food-and-beverage specialist are effectively in different businesses, so your first filter should be the product line, and your second the industry vertical within it. For a deeper look at Infor's flagship mid-market manufacturing product, see our Infor SyteLine / CloudSuite Industrial overview.

Types of Infor Partners

Beyond the four IPN functional roles, it helps to think about how partners position themselves commercially:

• Product specialists — a single Infor product delivered deeply to one or two industries. Best for buyers who want a partner that has seen every edge case in their vertical.
• Regional generalists — multiple Infor products across a geography, valuable when you need on-the-ground presence and local regulatory knowledge.
• Global systems integrators — multi-country, multi-product programmes with formal methodologies, suited to enterprise CloudSuite rollouts.
• Add-on and technology providers — extend core Infor with warehouse automation, EDI, analytics, or industry point solutions.

Matching this commercial profile to your project size and geography is as important as the product certification itself.

How to Choose an Infor Partner: 6 Key Criteria

Infor implementations succeed or fail largely on partner fit. We recommend interviewing three to four IPN-certified firms and scoring each against a consistent checklist rather than relying on a single sales conversation. Use these six criteria:

1. Product & industry match — does the partner hold live certifications for your Infor product (SyteLine, M3, LN, SX.e) and have named go-lives in your industry? Ask for references you can call.
2. IPN certification tier — confirm current IPN membership and the number of certified consultants on the product you are buying. Tier signals depth, not just membership.
3. Go-live references — request two or three customers of similar size and industry who went live in the last 24 months, and speak to them directly about scope, timeline, and support.
4. Team size & continuity — a boutique may offer senior attention but limited surge capacity; a large SI offers scale but may staff junior consultants. Clarify who is actually on your project.
5. Support & methodology model — is there a defined implementation methodology, and what does post-go-live support (SLAs, managed services, upgrades) look like once the project team leaves?
6. Pricing transparency — insist on a clear breakdown of licence, implementation services, and ongoing support, and how change requests are priced. Vague fixed-price quotes hide risk.

An independent adviser can help you run this evaluation objectively; our ERP consulting guide explains how selection advisers work alongside — and independently of — implementation partners.

Infor Partner Cost: What to Budget

Infor partner fees are a large and often under-estimated part of total cost of ownership, so budget with realistic ranges. As a rule of thumb for 2026:

• Total implementation cost for a mid-market to enterprise Infor CloudSuite programme typically runs $500,000 to $5 million, driven by scope, number of sites, integrations, and data-migration complexity.
• Partner services usually account for 30–45% of total project cost — the remainder being software subscription, infrastructure, and internal effort.
• Consultant day rates commonly fall in the $150–$350 per hour range in North America and Western Europe, varying by seniority and offshore mix.
• Typical project duration is 6 to 18 months for a single-instance CloudSuite go-live, longer for multi-country rollouts.

These figures are directional; your actual cost depends on product, industry, and how much configuration versus customisation your processes require. Getting two or three competing partner quotes against an identical, well-defined requirements set is the single best way to control this spend — which is exactly what the ERP requirements wizard helps you produce.

Infor Partners by Region

Infor's channel is global, and the right partner often depends on where your operations sit. The USA has the deepest concentration of SyteLine/CloudSuite Industrial and Distribution SX.e partners; the UK and Western Europe are strong in M3 (fashion, food & beverage) and LN (aerospace & defense); and APAC and the Middle East have growing CloudSuite practices. The curated partner cards below are organised by region — start with the geography where your implementation will be led, then filter by the product family you identified above.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Infor Partner Network (IPN)?

The Infor Partner Network (IPN) is Infor's global ecosystem of certified firms that sell, implement, integrate, and support Infor ERP products. As of 2026 it comprises approximately 770 certified companies spanning implementation, advisory, technology, and reseller roles, each authorised and tiered by Infor based on the certifications they hold and the outcomes they deliver.

What types of Infor partners are there?

Infor groups its channel into four functional types: implementation (channel) partners who deliver configuration and go-live; advisory and consulting partners who handle process design and selection; technology (alliance) partners who supply the platform and add-ons; and reseller/VAR partners who sell licences bundled with implementation and support. Most buyers ultimately contract an implementation partner or a reseller.

How do I choose the right Infor implementation partner?

Interview three to four IPN-certified firms and score each on six criteria: certified product and industry match, IPN tier, recent go-live references you can call, team size and continuity, support and methodology model, and pricing transparency. Prioritise partners with live certifications in your specific Infor product — SyteLine, M3, LN, or SX.e — and named references in your industry.

Which Infor partners specialise in manufacturing ERP?

Manufacturing buyers usually need a partner certified in CloudSuite Industrial (SyteLine) for small-to-mid-market mixed-mode and discrete manufacturing, Infor LN for large complex discrete manufacturers such as aerospace and defense, or Infor M3 for process manufacturers in food and beverage, fashion, and chemicals. Confirm the partner has go-lives in your exact sub-vertical, as manufacturing specialisms rarely transfer across products.

How much does an Infor implementation partner cost?

A mid-market to enterprise Infor CloudSuite implementation typically costs between $500,000 and $5 million, with partner services accounting for roughly 30–45% of that total. Consultant day rates commonly range from $150 to $350 per hour, and single-instance projects usually run 6 to 18 months. Obtaining competing quotes against a fixed requirements set is the best way to control the spend.

What is the difference between an Infor CloudSuite partner and an Infor M3 partner?

"CloudSuite" is Infor's family of industry-specific cloud ERP products, and Infor M3 is one product within it (delivered as CloudSuite for process manufacturing, distribution, fashion, and food and beverage). A partner may be certified for the broader CloudSuite Industrial (SyteLine) line, for M3 specifically, or for both — so always confirm which underlying product a "CloudSuite partner" actually implements before shortlisting.
