Adaptiv

Latest Articles

In 2010 we recognised the need in the market for an independent, solution-agnostic integration practice. So we formed Adaptiv.

We’re a New Zealand owned and operated consulting partner invested in helping you to leverage and extend the value of your existing business applications, not selling you new ones.

We come from a place of strength. We were originally the development arm of our parent company, ICM Asia-Pacific, a specialist agency which develops large scale SaaS trade processing platforms for the global financial markets. So we have a wealth of development and integration experience in moving clients from around the world onto private cloud-based SaaS platforms.

With our range of flexible partnering models, Adaptiv can lead the way and complete your implementation, or provide valuable guidance and support to your teams and partners.

International experience, local people and support
Although based in Auckland, we deliver projects nationally and internationally. Locally, we work with a number of large, well-known New Zealand companies, and globally, with some of the world’s largest Tier One financial institutions.

We have a strong stable of technical personnel, all trained to the exacting standards that are a hallmark of Adaptiv execution. Our people are consummate professionals with a broad range of capabilities.

We support our clients through our dedicated 24/7 help desk which provides second line Dell Boomi, BizTalk and MuleSoft support.

Integration technologies
We use the latest Boomi, Microsoft, MuleSoft and Solace integration technologies.

Adaptiv and Boomi: Boomi is a Dell Technologies Business. We have extensive experience in leading middleware technologies, and have also partnered with Boomi in their APAC expansion. Boomi is a formidable toolset designed to significantly improve client outcomes. Adaptiv is a certified advanced partner and has years of experience designing and delivering Boomi integration projects.

Adaptiv and Microsoft: We are a Microsoft Partner with Gold Competency in Application Integration, DevOps, Application Development & Cloud Platform. We are deeply connected with Microsoft and are currently technical advisors to the global Microsoft Business Platform Division (BPD) for Azure, SQL Server and BizTalk. Through this relationship, we have direct input on new features developed. We are also on the Microsoft Technology Advisory Panel (TAP) program for Azure and BizTalk. Our Principal Architect is one of only two Microsoft Virtual Technical Solution Professional (VTSP) for BizTalk and Azure in New Zealand. We are also present regularly at Microsoft Ignite and technical roadshows around New Zealand.

Adaptiv and MuleSoft: Adaptiv is one of only a handful of MuleSoft Partners in New Zealand, and has considerable experience with on-premise MuleESB, and cloud based CloudHub and Anypoint API platforms. We have a strong relationship with the MuleSoft team and work closely with them to meet the needs of the New Zealand market and establish best practice approaches suited to the local environment.

Adaptiv and Solace: Adaptiv has teamed up with Solace to enable the event mesh for connected enterprises. By connecting Solace PubSub+ advanced event brokers, the resulting event mesh securely, reliably, and in real-time, moves events from wherever they occur to wherever they need to be.

Adaptiv and Decisions: Our partnership with Decisions enables us to provide a workflow and rules engine for connected enterprises. We are specialists in all areas of modern workflows and automation to optimise business processes for a broad range of industries and verticals.

Our services

• Integration and development
• API consultancy services and build assistance
• Workflow and automation
• Integration testing
• Cloud and hybrid integration
• Architectural services
• Support
• Training

What our clients say about us
“Adaptiv is very responsive. Unlike some other partners we tried, you can talk directly to the person doing the job, rather than going through three or four different people.” – Warrick Atherton, Fulton Hogan’s Group Information Systems Manager

“Adaptiv are one of the best suppliers I’ve ever worked with. They are extremely professional and proficient at what they do and extremely committed to delivering a result for their customers.” – Paul Baron, Light Building Products Programme Manager

“We use Adaptiv as an extension of our organisation – we see them as members of the team.” – Gary Wallace, PlaceMakers’ Application Development Manager

“Our response from them (Adaptiv) has been excellent. We’ve needed very little support time, but on the odd occasion when we’ve needed to contact them about any transactional issues, we had a very quick response and the outcome was successful.” – Kieran Morgan, CFO of AIRBOW

About Esker
Esker is a global leader in cloud-based document process automation solutions. Esker’s solutions are compatible with all geographic, regulatory and technology environments, helping over 11,000 companies around the world improve efficiency, visibility, and cost-savings associated with the processing and exchange of information.

Founded in 1985, Esker operates in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia Pacific with global headquarters in Lyon, France and U.S. headquarters in Madison, Wisconsin and A/NZ headquarters in Sydney, Australia since 1997.

Esker’s solutions span the order-to-cash and purchase-to-pay cycles – allowing organisations to automate virtually any business process:

• Order Processing: automated entry and routing of incoming customer orders
• Accounts Receivable: automated sending and archiving of paper and e-invoices
• Collections Management: streamlined post-sale collection interactions
• Accounts Payable: automated entry and routing of incoming supplier invoices
• Purchasing: electronic processing and delivery of supply chain documents

Products

• Order-to-cash automation
• Purchase-to-pay
• Document Delivery

Order-to-cash-automation

Kryptonite to high costs, low visibility and poor customer service.

Is your O2C performance sputtering because of limited visibility, processing errors and too many manual touch points? Esker fills these gaps in the O2C journey from beginning to end with our suite of collaborative, cloud-based solutions. Inefficiency has no place to hide.

Order-to-cash is a complex cycle that involves multiple departments, teams and technologies within the organisation. Any delay in the flow of this interconnected system can set off a chain reaction of slower fulfillment times, lower customer experience scores and delayed payments.

Automating processes in the O2C cycle equates to:

• Improved end-to-end customer experience
• Greater cost savings to invest in R&D
• Increased collaboration and transparency
• Streamlined cash flow management

More information

Purchase-to-pay
Powerful solutions to flex your cash management muscle.

Accelerating cash flow and improving the company’s financial standing are hard to do when chaotic, manual processes are part of the P2P cycle. Esker’s automation solutions take paper out of the equation, giving greater control and visibility to those who need it most.

With so much riding on the efficiency of processes involved in the P2P cycle, today’s businesses simply can’t afford to fall back on standard practices that can impact both financial and operational integrity. Unifying P2P processes with automation is the best way to maximize profitability and minimize compliance issues.

Automating processes in the P2P cycle equates to:

• Strengthened policy enforcement and controls
• Identification and reduction of maverick spending
• Improved collaboration with key suppliers
• Recovery of undetected lost profits

Document Delivery
Send documents electronically. It’s as simple as that.

Real-time document processing and tracking? Check. Seamless integration? Check. Worldwide network of production facilities? Check. Esker makes document delivery easier than ever with our wide range of solutions that allow users to send documents via cloud fax or mail services 24/7 from any desktop or ERP system.

Some common business challenges that our clients have solved by implementing our solutions include:

• Disconnected activity causing inefficiencies in the form of time wasted and increased costs, or reduced revenue.
• Unable to reconcile multiple data sets into one accurate information source.
• Have outgrown accounting software, which is inhibiting company growth.

Support operational teams

Providing operations with effective tools to simplify complex processes and purge legacy systems, will allow them to deploy resources more effectively and automate onerous manual processes.

MYOB ERP enables automation across your operations from invoicing through to replenishment.

This allows you to:

• Keep a tight control on lead times and inventory costs across your supply chain.
• Track equipment maintenance schedules and identify the most cost-effective asset management.
• Manage by exception to distribute control across your management team with fully customisable approvals and alerts.
• Predict demand, analyse resource requirements, and plan production.

Enhance management decision making

A tremendous amount of real-time business intelligence exists in an organisation. Our solutions provide the keys to unlocking it, by providing insights that allow decision makers to act with clarity and confidence.

With robust, deep financial management capabilities, MYOB ERP provides in-depth reporting on financials to produce reliable and auditable records.
