A new set of mobile apps for Infor M3 to improve warehouse operations

Another year at Infoteamdagene has confirmed that the Norwegian industrial landscape is at a crossroads. As we gathered for the 2026 edition – marking another consecutive year of Novacura’s proud sponsorship of this vital community – one theme resonated louder than any technical update: the growing friction between ERP complexity and operational reality. Beyond our role as sponsors, we had the privilege of presenting a live look into how leaders are solving this friction. Our session, “How Møre Trafo Synchronized Production, Logistics, and Quality with Novacura Flow,” demonstrated that when you align your ERP with your people – rather than the other way around – the results are transformative. Insights from the 2026 M3 Roadmap Infoteamdagene 2026 provided a clear view of the road ahead. Our team engaged with several key pillars of the current M3 ecosystem: Maximizing M3 Value: Strategies for squeezing every drop of ROI out of existing implementations while preparing for modernization. The Cloud Transition: Moving to the Cloud is no longer the “future”—it is the present. The focus is now on how to migrate without losing the unique competitive advantages built into your current processes. AI and Automation: The integration of AI is shifting from hype to high-level automation, particularly in Supply Chain and Finance. Technical Deep Dives: Exploring how modern APIs and extensions can finally allow for a “Clean Core” strategy. The “Reporting Lag” and the Complexity Barrier As was mentioned many times during the event, for many organizations running Infor M3, the ERP has become an administrative burden on the shop floor. When a reporting process is too complex to complete in the moment, operators revert to paper or delayed entries. This is the Complexity Barrier. By the time the data reaches the management dashboard, it is already “historical fiction,” leading to over-purchasing, inventory inaccuracies, and a loss of strategic control. 35% Claim Reduction and Strategic Control: The Møre Trafo Customer Case At Infoteamdagene 2026, Møre Trafo – Scandinavia’s premier manufacturer of distribution transformers – demonstrated how they shifted from “ERP-centric” thinking to “operational intent.” In a high-precision industry where technical deviations carry heavy financial risks, Møre Trafo needed a way to ensure that shop-floor reality perfectly matched their digital records. The Challenge: The Friction of Manual Oversight Despite a robust ERP, Møre Trafo faced a common “Complexity Barrier”. Vital quality data was often captured manually, creating a “reporting lag” that prevented proactive course correction. This fragmentation made it difficult to maintain full traceability and contributed to avoidable costs from non-conformity and claims. The Solution: The “Template-Block” Framework To eliminate this friction, Møre Trafo implemented a process-optimizing low-code layer using Novacura Flow. Instead of forcing technicians to navigate complex ERP screens, they deployed a “Template-Block” architecture that enforces engineering rules at the point of execution. This mobile-first interface guides workers through mandatory technical gates – such as pressure tests or specific measurements – ensuring that data is captured correctly the first time. If a technical tolerance isn’t met, the process stops, preventing defects from moving downstream. The Result: Strategic Control and a 35% Claim Reduction By moving their complex […]

As part of our ongoing event tour across the UK, Novacura was proud to participate in the M3UA UK Conference 2025, held on April 29 at the Leonardo Hotel Hinckley Island. This annual event brought together Infor M3 customers, experts, and partners to share insights and explore how to get more value out of their ERP environments. We were excited to return to this high-impact gathering — not only to connect with M3 users at our booth, but also to take the stage and present a powerful case study on warehouse operations optimization using Novacura Flow. Enhancing Full Pallet Picking with Novacura Flow At 16:30, Novacura’s Director of Sales, Aksel Jarlbäck, presented a customer case titled:“Enhancing Full Pallet Picking Efficiency with Novacura Flow.” The session addressed common challenges in traditional full pallet picking processes — such as manual scanning steps, repeated API calls, and process inefficiencies — which often result in delays, errors, and wasted time. Aksel walked the audience through a real-life implementation at a food and beverage company, showing how Novacura Flow was used to build a customized pallet picking application tailored to the customer’s needs. Key takeaways from the session included: How continuous scanning was implemented to streamline workflows How the app reduced manual input and operational time The measurable impact on accuracy and efficiency in the warehouse This case study provided a concrete example of how low-code automation can modernize M3 processes, especially in logistics-intensive environments. The audience had a chance to see how flexible application design — powered by Novacura Flow — can bridge ERP functionality gaps without requiring complex development or changes to the core system. SUMMARY Throughout the day, attendees also had the opportunity to stop by Novacura’s blue booth (#4) to meet Aksel Jarlbäck and Robin Huizer, discuss their own M3 challenges, and explore how low-code can be applied across operations — from warehousing to production and beyond. We were glad to engage with so many M3 professionals and share ideas on making ERP systems more user-friendly, efficient, and adaptable. Thanks to everyone who attended the session, visited our booth, and contributed to meaningful conversations. We look forward to returning next year and continuing the journey of ERP innovation — together.
