REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Nov. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ivalua, a global leader in spend management, and its partner Cyrias today announced that Asmodee, a global entertainment leader, has successfully implemented Ivalua to consolidate its Source-to-Requisition (S2R) operations.

Founded in 1995 and headquartered in France, Asmodee is an entertainment leader specialized in tabletop games. Thanks to its global workforce of over 2,200 people, players around the world enjoy one of the largest tabletop game IP catalogs with CATAN, Ticket to Ride^®, Dobble/Spot it!, Exploding Kittens and hundreds more across a variety of digital and physical platforms.

Recognizing the opportunity to optimize its inbound supply chain operations, Asmodee launched a digitalization project called Transformers. The objective of the program was to consolidate multiple, disconnected tools into a single, unified platform that would streamline processes, improve information flow, and give Asmodee greater control over its global supply chain.

Asmodee selected Ivalua as the central purchasing platform to drive its digital transformation due to its robust supplier management capabilities and ability to seamlessly integrate with existing systems. Ivalua enables Asmodee to digitalize sourcing, streamline supplier management operations, and better monitor the production lifecycle across its supply chain.

"We are delighted to partner with Ivalua and Cyrias to consolidate our purchasing and production management operations. Ivalua's comprehensive solution aligns with our ambitions for broad digital transformation", said Flore Belbis, EVP Supply Chain at Asmodee.

"The impressive results obtained during the implementation of P2R and Sourcing for Asmodee testify to the strong investment made by Asmodee, Cyrias and Ivalua in this ambitious digitalization project," said Mathieu Boutin, Cyrias Project Manager. "The Ivalua platform has demonstrated its ability to address a wide range of purchasing issues: SRM, digitization of the supply chain, tracking of pre-production and production stages until games are manufactured and ready for shipment. This project reflects the excellent collaboration with Ivalua and strengthens our relationship with Asmodee, making their success our success".

"Leveraging Ivalua's robust capabilities and Cyrias' technical expertise, Asmodee is poised to achieve better visibility, control, and collaboration across its supply chain, driving operational excellence and delivering enhanced value to its customers. We are delighted to empower Asmodee's supply chain digital transformation," said Dan Amzallag, Chief Operating Officer (COO) at Ivalua.
