In evaluating recent acquisitions in the enterprise resource planning (ERP) field, it will be useful to describe Infor Process Group's vertically-focused "assembler strategy" (also see Stability and Functionality for Process and Discrete Manufacturers). It is interesting to note that the Infor of today originated with the Infor Process Group; its very first acquisition was the 2002 Process Group spin-off from the former SCT Corporation, which brought Adage ERP and Fygir SCP process manufacturing products into the fold (see iProcess.sct Enters Golden Gate Opportunity). It is ironic, however, that this very functional and prosperous "mother" product portfolio has been left largely unattended by Infor for some time, owing to a spate of other acquisitions, especially within the now much larger discrete manufacturing and wholesale distribution groups.

English term (edited):
to bring s.t. / s.o. into the fold
Selected
amener ... dans la famille / le groupe [d'entreprises / de sociétés]
to bring s.t. / s.o. into the fold HERE is most literally just that - to bring someone (more precisely a new company) into the group / the family of companies -
I absolutely can't see in this ST any moral connotation [that can exist in some other context] that "our group" is the (only) group of the righteous ones and bringing someone in "our group" is tantamount to "saving the poor lost soul" / "bringing it back to the path of righteousness" etc. - all I can see is a growing group of companies, operating in the field of "enterprise resource planning (ERP)" [would that be some new religious sect? wouldn't think so ...]
