Ensuring supplier compliance on a global scale référentiel fournisseurs mondial
Before Aprovall, Egis faced the challenge of maintaining a large and complex supplier base while integrating a new ERP.
The goal was to ensure regulatory compliance before activating any supplier within the purchasing system.
Document checks (insurance, identity, banking compliance) were manual and difficult to manage across multiple regions — creating operational delays and compliance risks.
Le contrôle des documents (assurances, identité, conformité bancaire) était essentiel mais difficile à piloter à grande échelle. Le manque d’automatisation exposait l’entreprise à des risques de non-conformité et de lenteur opérationnelle.
The solution : ERP-integrated and fully automated process
Egis integrated Aprovall directly into its Oracle ERP, making it the single entry point for supplier qualification and compliance.
- Legal: document and regulatory data collection
- Finance: bank details verification
- Environment: responsible purchasing charter signature workflow
Data flows automatically between Aprovall and Oracle, ensuring that only validated suppliers are activated in the ERP.
The process brings full traceability, regulatory compliance, and significant operational efficiency.
Aprovall has been a true partner in building our new ERP ecosystem. Their involvement and ability to align with our procurement strategy were key to the project’s success

The collaboration between Egis and Aprovall demonstrates how digitalization can simplify and secure supplier management at scale.
By connecting directly with Oracle and automating validation workflows, Egis now manages its suppliers with greater control, agility, and transparency.
This partnership strengthens Egis’s commitment to operational excellence, compliance, and sustainability.
