Aravo Solutions, San Francisco, CA
During the technology boom of the late 90s, companies invested tens of millions of dollars in “e-procurement” software. The promise of this software is to allow large companies to do all of their purchasing electronically, but in many cases suppliers are small businesses that do not have the financial resources or technology expertise to implement expensive software solutions. Aravo solves this problem by selling an affordable, web-based software program that links a small business inventory system to the multi-million dollar e-procurement systems run by Fortune 1000 companies and large government and university procurement offices.
