Why HICX?

HICX is 100% focused on supplier management.  We combine domain-expert supplier master data management with deep expertise in the challenges buyers and suppliers face working together.  We’re focused on delivering real value to business users in Procurement, Supply Chain, Finance and beyond.

We don’t provide generic technology solutions to satisfy narrow IT requirements for a simple master record, but a complete solution to address the business processes that rely on supplier data and the supplier experience.

Cleansing data at the start of the project sounds so enticing, but it doesn’t work in practice.  Almost nobody is willing to re-upload ‘cleaned’ data back into their live transactional systems as there’s just too much risk.

At HICX we take a different approach. You start by controlling the entry point for all new data and any changes to existing data.  Then, using our unique merge tools, we can identify low fill rates, fields with common errors, unused fields, missing mandatory data and all the major causes of data problems and data upload failures before reintegrating the improved data in to your live production system.

Achieve rapid improvements in data quality and implement the controls to keep it that way.

Supplier information management is a business challenge, not an IT one. HICX supplier data and supplier experience management projects focus on the business transformation outcome, not on fixing a narrow data problem.  We help businesses transform real-world business uses cases that span multiple teams across the organization.

HICX works with the largest brands in the world, supporting hundreds of thousands of suppliers per client. The platform is designed to handle very large data loads in minutes, essential in real-world projects where waiting for hours or even days is just not practical. Book a demo and see how our supplier portal software could work for you.

HICX combines the best of low-code and no-code.  Every brand has unique requirements and no-code enables non-technical staff to customise the solution without the need to wait in line for scarce IT resources.  Added to this, the complete flexibility of low-code and we’re able to deliver very large-scale supplier data projects in unheard-of timeframes.

Forms, approvals workflows, alerts, 3rd party ‘punchouts,’ integrations and even the data model can be configured to your company’s specific requirements by those that know the processes – the business users – and in a fraction of the time it would take the IT department or your systems integrator to code a generic MDM solution.
