Finalgo assists VSEs / SMEs / artisans and retailers in their financing search, thanks to an intelligent search tool and an ultra-fast file preparation solution.

Our solution allows, for example, to send a financing request in a few minutes, to get a response in a few days, then disbursement in about ten days, and this for small amounts (from 10,000 euros).

We are also very active in the financing search software market with a turnkey solution for brokers, chartered accountants and other business consultants (SAAS tool / CRM / DMS / decision support).

Are you familiar with software integration? The bane of IT professionals?

Here, the task was to implement a logistics optimization solution within existing, operational, and critical software architectures for large distributors and/or producers.

What experience does this provide? First, the classic folklore related to project management: requirements gathering, proposal, negotiation, kickoff, testing, acceptance, specifications, implementation, monitoring. Then, the purely software aspect: implementation among various technologies.

The most interesting part for me: what we programmed, real people use it for real needs: not because they want to, but because they have to use it.

And so it must work.

For those familiar with linear programming: that's what I was doing.

For others, it involves modeling business needs (objectives and constraints) in the form of mathematical equations (linear), so that a large, black, mysterious box (a solver) into which we feed these equations gives us a mathematical solution.

This solution (after interpretation) is supposed to be:

- The best production plan (on machines and plants)

- The best procurement plan

- Optimal inventory management...
