What Infor CloudSuite Industrial Delivers for A&D Manufacturers
DCAA-Compliant Job Costing
The system automatically routes every transaction to the correct contract, from labor hours to material charges to overhead allocations. You generate audit trails on demand and face DCAA reviews with confidence.
ITAR Access Controls
Role-based permissions restrict controlled technical data to authorized personnel only. Export compliance documentation tracks every access event across your organization.
Serialized Lot Traceability
Each part is tracked from raw material receipt through final assembly and shipment. You gain complete genealogy records that satisfy prime contractor and government requirements.
Government Contract Accounting
All contract types run in a single system, regardless of the billing structure. Your finance team sees real-time margins on every program without reconciling separate tools
AS9100 Quality Management
CloudSuite Industrial functions as a complete aerospace quality management system built directly into your daily manufacturing workflows. You meet AS9100 Rev D requirements without maintaining a separate quality system

How Godlan Deploys CloudSuite for Defense Contractors
Step 1
Compliance Gap Assessment
Your current systems are evaluated against ITAR, DFARS 252.204-7012, and DCAA accounting requirements. You receive a prioritized remediation roadmap within the first two weeks.
Step 2
A&D-Specific Configuration
CloudSuite is configured for your contract mix, whether commercial aerospace, DoD programs, or both. Government accounting structures and security controls are set up before data migration begins.
Step 3
Data Migration With Traceability Intact
All critical manufacturing data transfers into the new system with complete integrity. Your traceability chain remains unbroken for active contracts.
Step 4
Go-Live During Active Production

Frequently Asked Questions
CloudSuite Industrial can be deployed within environments designed to support NIST 800-171 and CMMC requirements when implemented with appropriate security controls and organizational processes. Your infrastructure supports Level 2 requirements while Godlan configures access controls aligned to your assessment scope.
Yes. Separate compliance profiles run simultaneously without duplicating processes. Your team switches between contract types within a single interface.
CloudSuite Industrial provides detailed audit trails, project accounting, labor tracking, and reporting capabilities that support DCAA audit preparation and compliance initiatives.
All serialized part histories and lot genealogies transfer into CloudSuite with full chain-of-custody documentation. Active contract records remain audit-ready throughout the transition.
CloudSuite Industrial is engineered specifically for discrete manufacturing, with native project manufacturing capabilities and deep quality management built into the core system. General enterprise platforms like SAP and Oracle carry the implementation complexity and cost of Tier 1 solutions designed for global enterprises. For mid-market A&D manufacturers, that translates to longer deployments and slower time to value. CloudSuite Industrial delivers the capabilities your contracts require at a scale built for your operation.
