NIV PRODUCT FACTS · REVIEWED 2026-10-22
What can your team do with NIV?
Manage your work, products, suppliers and business records in one place. Here is what that means in everyday terms.
Keep product details together
Store parts, drawings and product changes. Review a change before approving the next version.
Follow problems through to a fix
Record a quality or safety concern, assign the follow-up and keep the review history.
Organize suppliers and purchases
Keep supplier documents, purchase orders and delivery records together. Review missing or conflicting information.
Make finance easier to review
Compare invoices with orders and receipts. Track approvals and accounting records; external payments need a separate service.
Share instructions and team records
Write step-by-step instructions, track training and bring supported Excel trackers into a shared workspace.
SEE THE ACTUAL PLATFORM
Your information. Easier to follow.
These screenshots show what happens after example records are added to NIV. Choose a screen to see what your team would read and update.
Screenshots show demonstration records, not customer data. The screens available to your team depend on your plan, setup and permissions.
Current availability: scoped pilot
NIV is offered through scoped pilot evaluation. The catalog describes implemented workflows, not a guarantee that every module is enabled, production-validated or included in every customer plan. Confirm the deployed workflow and written scope in a demo.
Who it is for
Manufacturing, engineering and distribution teams. Our initial customer focus is companies with 30–100 employees; fit depends on the actual workflow.
Who to involve
Owners and operations leaders, together with manufacturing, quality, engineering, procurement and finance reviewers.
How to evaluate
Bring one workflow, your team size and the systems used today. Confirm modules, integrations, training, pricing and support in writing before purchase.
