Ivalua’s purchasing dashboard module comes with dozens of the most common procurement indicators already built-in, covering the main areas of purchasing performance. Indicators specific to each client can be added to this dashboard.
OLAP Cube technology makes it easy to produce analyses on the fly, covering many dimensions at a time, or to delve into the archive of analyses that already exist.
The tool also offers the possibility for authorized users to create their own specific reports. A report can be created in a few clicks and then exported to Word or Excel. Finally, each user can lay out their own dynamic Purchasing Control Center as they see fit, displaying in real time selected indicators over the period of the analysis, the purchasing category or the entities of their choice.
Ivalua’s teams and consulting partners provide the skills and expertise necessary for the successful deployment of Ivalua Buyer. We work hand in hand with our clients to ensure rapid and sustainable adoption by internal users and suppliers.
Working with customer requirements, Ivalua’s functional experts operate in close collaboration with the client to configure the specific modules, approval workflows, alert systems, data import/processing/export procedures, as well as the interface with other tools and the indicators and reports parameters.
Right from the start of production, it’s important to migrate historical data to Ivalua Buyer to maximize the analytical potential of the system. Ivalua’s powerful ETL tool (extract, transform, load), expedites migration to mass transfer historical data from existing sources (Excel, ERP, etc.).
With over a dozen different ERP/accounting systems already integrated, our pre-configured connectors provide multiple points of integration for all major ERP/accounting systems in the market with the availability of customization to fit any client’s specific requirements.
In addition to the application documentation and existing help screens, Ivalua and its partners offer on-site training and e-learning courses adapted to each type of user group.
The software is licensed and installed locally by the client. The client’s IT service takes charge of the administration of the application. They can subscribe to the application maintenance and user support services provided by Ivalua as they see fit.
Ivalua’s SaaS model includes the deployment, maintenance and the hosting of the software within a customer account through our hosting partner. This comprehensive service is offered over a contractually determined period for a monthly fee.
On Demand deployments allow the client to subscribe to the same service as in SaaS, but over a much shorter time period and linked to a particular event: for example; RFQs, RFIs, or auctions. Therefore, pricing is established on an event-by-event basis and frequency of tool usage in order to manage these events.
