Spend Matters Sponsor
Ivalua
Spend Matters Analysis: Ivalua is one of a minority of providers in the Spend Management sector that can lay claim to having a broad suite capability that stretches from upfront spend analysis to P2P to ongoing supplier performance and quality management. What sets Ivalua apart from other similar-sized providers is not just this breadth, but that they have been able to build a global business, supporting large multinational clients facing complex international mplementations.
Ivalua's ability to provide significant localization (multi-language, multi-site/system integration) while also meeting industry-specific requirements (e.g., supplier quality processes and programs) is remarkable, given that they are significantly smaller than other procurement-technology providers with similar footprints and global scale. Spend Matters recommends that all organizations with multinational footprints and/or global requirements consider Ivalua. This recommendation is underlined by the provider's solution breadth, relatively low price points, proven global track record, and depth in key strategic and transactional areas.
For companies using their ERP provider for core transactional purchasing activity -- or who plan to migrate to an ERP-focused solution -- Ivalua presents a viable alternative in the areas where the ERP provider is either overpriced or lacks sufficient depth and capabilities.
Sponsor Description: Since its inception in 2000, Ivalua has become one of Europe's leading vendors in the Spend Management software market. With average annual revenue growth of over 100%, Ivalua has been able to garner the trust and loyalty of numerous key account customers who are leaders within their own markets, either in industry or in the service sector. The Ivalua Buyer suite is both very simple to use and easy to adapt to each business. The solution can be fully administrated by a functional manager and deployed with much tighter lead times and budgets than traditional applications.
