One of Fortude’s latest AI agents, the Order Capture Agent, was presented at @Infor Community Hackathon 2026 during Velocity Week this month.

Designed to address a common business challenge, manual order entry, the solution combines Robotic Process Automation (RPA), intelligent document processing, and generative AI. By catching errors and exceptions before orders reach your ERP, it can help teams reduce downstream rework, improve fulfilment efficiency, and scale order processing with greater confidence.

Compleat Food Group - one of the UK's leading food manufacturers and suppliers of chilled and prepared foods - worked with Fortude to roll out Infor CloudSuite Food & Beverage across multiple sites. Running on a legacy on-premise ERP across multiple sites had created fragmented processes and inconsistent data, making group-level reporting difficult. Scaling through acquisitions also meant the business needed a rollout model that could onboard new sites quickly, without rebuilding from scratch each time. The solution? Fortude built a standardized business template, refined for site-specific needs, enabling faster deployments while ensuring consistency across the group. 👉 Read the full case study: fortude.co/case-study/the-co… #DeliveringDigitalSolutionsThatMatter #MultiSiteCloudRollout #InforCloudSuiteFoodAndBeverage

"What I'm hearing from customers, more than anything, is a push for standardization, a global template they can roll out site by site rather than reinventing the implementation each time.

And what will the next 12 to 18 months look like for EU/UK organizations that are looking for sustainable digital maturity?
