Deloitte and Ivalua have formed a strategic alliance combining procurement and supply chain expertise with artificial intelligence (AI) technology to help organisations modernise source-to-pay processes, strengthen supplier management and improve supply chain resilience.
Deloitte has announced a strategic alliance with Ivalua focused on transforming direct and indirect source-to-pay processes and improving supplier management through AI.
The collaboration combines Deloitte’s supply chain and procurement experience with Ivalua’s enterprise AI platform. It is designed to help organisations address supply chain vulnerabilities, improve efficiency and generate greater value across supplier ecosystems.
Salim Khoja, digital procurement and supply chain leader and managing director, Deloitte Consulting LLP, said: “As organizations navigate supply chain volatility and evolving procurement requirements, rethinking procurement through agentic AI becomes essential for resilience and growth.
“Together with Ivalua, we look forward to helping clients streamline sourcing, improve supplier relationships and realize cost savings.”
The alliance will address procurement processes ranging from supplier onboarding and risk management to sourcing optimisation and automated invoicing.
It will also focus on the use of agentic AI as organisations look to digital technologies to increase procurement productivity and support more data-driven supply chain decisions.
According to the companies, the technology can help Chief Procurement Officers (CPOs) scale operations, increase productivity and improve bottom-line performance.
Ivalua’s platform incorporates IVA Studio and agentic AI, with the alliance targeting organisations seeking to move away from fragmented procurement environments towards a unified technology platform.
Laura Smith, VP Sales of North America, Ivalua, said: “Working with Deloitte enables us to combine Ivalua’s leading enterprise AI platform for procurement with Deloitte’s world-class consulting and delivery capabilities.
“This alliance represents an important milestone in helping organizations move beyond fragmented environments and embrace a new era of intelligent procurement. By leveraging a unified platform, powered by IVA Studio and agentic AI, enterprises can reimagine operations, gain deeper insights, and empower procurement teams to become strategic contributors to business growth, resilience, and innovation.”
The collaboration comes as organisations face supply chain volatility alongside changing procurement requirements.
By integrating procurement processes and supplier information through a unified platform, Deloitte and Ivalua aim to help organisations improve sourcing, supplier relationships and risk management while identifying potential cost savings.
The alliance will also support businesses seeking to use AI to automate procurement activities and provide procurement teams with deeper insights across their supply chain operations.
