Furthermore, ivoflow prepares you with all the necessary data to negotiate with your suppliers.

We offer an intelligent procurement platform for industrial companies that combines internal and external data sources and operational procurement systems to identify new opportunities and enable organizations to focus on the implementation of value-add initiatives.

In order to store and analyze all your procurement data, we are using a state-of-the-art PostgreSQL-Database.

We have developed an efficient process of applying intelligent algorithms and manual testing to identify data errors, handle duplicates and detect missing data, or deal with outliers.

We are committed to a high standard of data security. ivoflow is ISO 27001 & 9001 certified. All hosted data is encrypted and securely stored. Data security is constantly verified and monitored to ensure the safety of all data.

In general, ivoflow can work with any ERP-system. We bring extensive knowledge and experience extracting data from different ERP-systems. Furthermore we are partnering with Scheer PAS and Proclane. Both companies are SAP certified and have a proven track record in successfully connecting ERP-systems such as SAP, Infor, Oracle and others.

Not at all! ivoflow will address your challenges at every level. As we are working with many customers from different industries, we are used to differently structured ERP-Data. Using our data-cleansing mechanisms, we ensure it is enriched and checked before running it live for users.

This is a common situation we see at our customer and that is exactly our use-case. It does not affect the implementation. Most of our clients do not have a centralized data lake and are challenged by multiple disconnected EPR-systems and sources. We have a variety of extraction methods to connect and extract, harmonize, and streamline all the necessary data and systems.

No. Most of the data is automatically transferred form your ERP-System(s), Procurement Suite(s) or additional data hubs into our database. Nevertheless offline data such as saving-targets can be manually uploaded into the database.

ivoflow can support different methods, from full automation to basic template uploads. Our SAP-certified partners will automate the extraction from your ERP system and refresh processes using configurable templates to acquire the specific data tables and columns needed. A template file can also be used to upload offline data if required.

We focus entirely on our customer's preferences. ivoflow can be used as a cloud solution or an on-prem solution. We work closely with each of our customers to find the best option that works for you.

That's individual to each customer. Your data can be hosted on your premisses, on your private cloud environment, or on our own Microsoft Azure Cloud.

In general, our implementation process takes about 8 weeks, from kick-off to go-live. Please note, the duration can vary due to factors such as the amount of different ERP-Systems and APIs.
