Two of North America’s most trusted IFS specialists have combined into one full-lifecycle partner, backed by Superstep Capital. Here’s what changed, what didn’t, and why we chose a new name.
The News
JumpModel and Gogh Solutions are now one company: Coredrive.
JumpModel built its reputation on IFS ERP and Cloud transformation. Gogh became the standard in IFS Service Management: field service, asset management, and scheduling optimization. With a strategic investment from Superstep Capital, the two firms have combined into a single, independent IFS services platform. It is one of the most complete in North America.
ERP industry leader Paulo Kaiser has joined as Executive Chairman to guide the company’s growth and strategic direction.
Why a New Name
We could have kept one name and folded the other in. We didn’t, on purpose.
JumpModel and Gogh each earned trust in their lanes. But clients were never buying a lane. They were buying an outcome. Most IFS projects don’t fail on the software. They fail on the partner: one firm for ERP, another for field service, a third for integrations, and no one accountable for the whole.
Coredrive represents a new kind of IFS partner. The merger gave us the chance to leave both legacy brands behind and step into something bigger: one unified brand built for enterprise scale, AI-native delivery, and the full IFS lifecycle.
The name says what we do. The core is the technical heart of your operation: ERP, cloud, and the data underneath. The drive is the momentum in the field: service crews, assets, and schedules that actually move. Coredrive connects the two, and so do we. You can see it in the mark, two angled forms locked into one, the same way two firms became one accountable team.
What Coredrive Stands For
The new identity had to be grounded and modern. It needed to be industrial enough to earn the trust of CIOs running utilities and aerospace programs, and bold enough to signal that something new has arrived in the IFS ecosystem.
That’s why it looks the way it does. Our signal color is burnt orange, the orange of safety vests and hot metal, set against near-black and warm stone. Our photography stays in black and white and stays in the field: solar arrays, factory floors, service calls. Orange is the only color we let through. Headlines are clean and direct, labels read like a spec sheet, and underneath it all sit the grids and isometric lines of an engineering drawing. It’s an identity that looks as at home in a utility boardroom as it does on a turbine deck.
What it stands for comes down to three commitments.
Our purpose is to be reliable. Our clients need confidence that their transformation will work, not just look good in a proposal.
Our pursuit is operational truth. We value proof over polish, and we push past theory into what holds up in the field.
Our path is partnership. We lead with directness and expertise, and we treat the customer’s problem as our own. Sometimes that means pushing back.
Built for the Full IFS Lifecycle
Most partners own one piece. Coredrive owns the whole thing, organized around three stages:
Define. We decide what IFS should do for you, and in what order. That covers strategic advisory, IFS AI Compass, blueprinting, value roadmaps, and implementation health checks.
Deliver. We make it real, with full implementations from mobilization through hypercare, plus upgrades, Quickstart, and data migration.
Drive. We keep it moving, with managed services that improve the system every quarter. It’s the stage most partners skip, and it’s the one our name is built on.
We work across seven industries that run on physical assets: energy and utilities, manufacturing, aerospace and defense, telecommunications, construction and engineering, home and business services, and transportation. These industries can’t afford a failed implementation, and we don’t treat them like they can.
AI-Native From Day One
As IFS Cloud and IFS.ai adoption speeds up, the gap between partners who talk about AI and partners who deliver it is getting wider. Coredrive brings IFS.ai and agentic AI into every engagement, built on a foundation that’s actually integrated.
“This partnership strengthens what our clients value most: expertise, continuity, and partnership. With JumpModel and Superstep, we gain the scale and investment needed to take on larger, more complex programs while staying true to how we deliver.”
Eric Costanzo
Managing Director, Gogh Solutions
“IFS has become a strategic platform for our clients, and they need a partner that can scale with them as their IFS environments grow in complexity. By combining with Gogh, we expand our ability to support ERP, Cloud, and service management initiatives in an integrated, enterprise-ready way.”
Matt Carswell
Co-Founder and Managing Partner, JumpModel
A Long-Term Bet on IFS
Superstep Capital’s investment funds leadership, delivery infrastructure, go-to-market, and a deeper IFS partnership. This is a long-term commitment, not a roll-up.
“Superstep is committed to the company’s vision of building the leading independent IFS partner in North America.”
Stuart Coleman
Managing Partner, Superstep Capital
