Convergint, a global systems integrator, has partnered with spend management platform Ivalua and consulting firm Deloitte to automate its direct procurement processes. The initiative aims to enhance operational efficiency and visibility across Convergint’s procurement activities.
Headquartered in Schaumburg, Illinois, Convergint specializes in designing, installing, and servicing electronic security, fire and life safety, audio-visual, and building automation systems. With over 10,000 employees in more than 220 locations worldwide, the company reported revenues exceeding $2.6 billion in 2024.
The collaboration involves implementing Ivalua’s Source-to-Pay (S2P) platform to serve as Convergint’s central procurement hub. This integration is expected to automate purchase order creation, improve collaboration with sales teams, and streamline supplier order placements. Additionally, the platform will integrate with Convergint’s Customer Pricing Quote tool, enabling seamless updates of supplier products and pricing from Ivalua catalogs.

“We selected Ivalua for its ability to adapt and meet our business needs with a focus on delivering a near-touchless procurement experience,” said Doug Kortfelt, Chief Procurement Officer of Convergint. “We are confident that Ivalua will enable us to expedite the delivery of materials and services, allowing us to fulfil our commitments as effectively as possible and support our mission of being our customers’ best service provider.”
Brent Griffith, Consulting Managing Director at Deloitte, noted that Ivalua’s capability to integrate pricing, supply chain, and purchasing functions across a complex technology stack—including ERP, CRM, CPQ, inventory, and workforce management systems—made it a suitable choice for Convergint’s digital modernization efforts.
The implementation of Ivalua’s platform is set to commence immediately, with a phased rollout planned over the coming months. The collaborative approach among Convergint, Ivalua, and Deloitte aims to ensure that the solution aligns with Convergint’s specific requirements and delivers measurable benefits.
