Commercial since 2011

Built internally to manage multi-brand retail sourcing across international suppliers, and refined over 18 years before going commercial in 2011. It has been in continuous enterprise use ever since.

Today it is a configurable SaaS platform covering the full supply chain: supplier management, procurement, order management, product development, and reporting in one connected system. It is not a generic ERP adapted for sourcing. It was built from the ground up for the way sourcing operations actually work.

BasicInsights

Reporting that thinks like your business.

BasicInsights is the analytics layer built into BasicPSF. It turns your operational data into structured reports and dashboards without requiring exports, third-party tools, or a dedicated data team. Every metric your operation produces: supplier performance, order status, cost variance, compliance rates, is available as a live view the moment it exists in the system.

Reports are built around the way your operation is structured: by brand, by supplier, by category, by season, by market. Your team gets the visibility they need without relying on anyone to run it for them.
