From scattered data to group procurement control with Ignite
How Hofseth used Ignite to bring structure, visibility, and control to a decentralized multi-site business.
Turn procurement spend into a margin driver.
Most finance leaders have limited visibility into what procurement delivers. Ignite gives you the data to find savings, improve working capital, and make procurement a measurable contributor to your bottom line.
Customers have seen 10% savings on addressable spend
Procurement is one of your biggest cost levers. Most companies aren't using it.
Procurement spend represents a significant share of revenue. Without the right data and tools, that spend is hard to control, harder to optimize, and nearly impossible to report on.
No clear picture of what you're spending
Procurement data lives across different systems. Getting a reliable view depends on whoever built the last report, and falls apart when that person leaves.
Negotiated value that never gets used
Contracts are signed but rarely tracked against actual spend. Without visibility into what’s on and off contract, the value procurement negotiated disappears.
Savings that are hard to prove
Procurement identifies opportunities but tracking them from identification to delivery is difficult. When it’s time to present results, the numbers are hard to defend.
Working capital left on the table
Invoices are often paid earlier than contracts require. Without visibility across your supplier base, it is hard to know where to improve.
Ignite Intelligence
With Ignite, procurement stops being a cost center, and starts increasing margins.
The old way
- Procurement data spread across systems
- Dependent on individuals and spreadsheets that don't scale
- Savings identified but not tracked to delivery
- Negotiated terms unused and off-contract spend invisible
- Payment terms inconsistent and rarely optimized
- Supplier risk assessed without the full picture
The Ignite way
- One view and full control of procurement data
- A system that keeps working even when people change
- Every saving initiative tracked to delivery
- Contracted spend up, negotiated terms used
- Payment term gaps visible and ready to act on
- Supplier risk enriched and visible

Savings you can track and defend
Ignite identifies savings opportunities and tracks every initiative to delivery, with projected and realized savings documented in one place, whether one-time or recurring. When it is time to present results, the numbers are there and ready to stand behind.
Book demoWorking capital you can improve
Our research shows that invoices are paid 6 days earlier, on average, than the contract requires. Across a large supplier base, that adds up to significant cash that could stay in your business longer. Ignite gives your team a clear view of payment term gaps so you know exactly where to act.

Supplier risk and compliance, handled
Ignite enriches your suppliers with financial risk, geographical exposure, and certifications so you always know which relationships carry risk. For teams with Transparency Act obligations, Ignite supports the full process from risk identification through due diligence to reporting.
Book demoContracted spend that actually gets used
Customers have seen contracted spend increase by more than 30 percentage points after implementing Ignite. When negotiated terms are visible and connected to spend, procurement stops losing value between signing and buying.

Commonly asked questions
Answers to the questions we hear most from finance teams. Still have one? Book a demo and we'll walk you through it.
Our ERP data isn’t clean. Is that a problem?
No. Ignite is built for messy inputs. A raw ERP extract is enough to get started. AI handles categorization at over 90% accuracy, so your team gets a reliable picture without data preparation work upfront.
We have invested in tools before that never got used. How is Ignite different?
Ignite is built for adoption, not just implementation. The product is easy to use from day one, onboarding is guided, and Customer Success stays involved to make sure your team is actually getting value. Most customers see results within 30 days, which is usually enough to create the internal momentum that keeps it going.
What kind of ROI can we expect?
Customers typically find 5-10% savings in addressable spend. On top of that, working capital improvements from better payment terms can be significant. Most customers see returns that substantially exceed the platform cost within the first year.
How do we know the savings are real?
Every initiative in Ignite is tracked from identification to delivery, with projected and realized savings documented in one place. The numbers are auditable and tied to specific actions, not estimates.
Is our data secure?
Yes. Ignite is ISO 27001 certified and hosted in Europe. Your data is never used to train AI models, and every change is logged in a full audit trail.
