Fix it once. Monitor it permanently.

Each Sprint is an eight-week engagement that delivers a running intelligence system - not a one-time report. At the end of Sprint 1, your vendor master is clean and monitored. At the end of Sprint 2, your duplicate payment exposure is tracked automatically every month.

How it works

Every Sprint follows the same structure.

Weeks 1-2

Data intake and baseline

We receive your ERP data exports, run them through the Finance Data Layer, and establish a baseline. You see what exists today - volumes, exceptions, compliance gaps - before we touch anything.

Weeks 3-6

Build and validate

We build the monitoring rules, compliance checks, and exception logic specific to your business. Each rule is validated against your actual data, not a generic template. India-specific compliance requirements - GSTIN, TDS, e-invoicing - are built in, not bolted on.

Weeks 7-8

Handover and first Monthly Brief

The monitoring system goes live. Your first Monthly Finance Operations Intelligence Brief is delivered at Week 8. This is the document your CFO and Finance Controller will receive every month going forward.

No ERP access required. No IT project. Data in via CSV - monitoring out via Monthly Brief.

Pricing

Fixed scope. Fixed price. No surprises.

Sprint pricing is confirmed at the start of each engagement, based on scope defined during the Diagnostic.

The Sprint Stack

Four modules. Each one builds on the last.

The Diagnostic determines which Sprint is the right starting point. For most clients, that is Sprint 1. For some it is Sprint 2 directly.

Sprint 1 - Vendor Master Intelligence

Available now

8 weeks

The problem it solves

Vendor masters grow unchecked. Duplicate vendors, cancelled GSTINs, missing TDS categories, and stale bank accounts accumulate over years. Most finance teams discover the damage during an audit or a payment fraud incident.

What it delivers

  • Vendor master cleaned and validated against GST portal data
  • Compliance rules configured for your vendor base - GSTIN, TDS category, PAN matching
  • Duplicate vendor detection - same PAN, same GSTIN, same bank account
  • Bank account change monitoring - flagged before the next payment run
  • Monthly Finance Operations Intelligence Brief - Vendor Master module

What you receive

  • Running compliance monitoring system Vendor master checks run every month on fresh data - not a one-time cleanup.
  • Vendor Health Score report Top findings ranked by financial exposure, delivered at the end of the Sprint.
  • Monthly Finance Operations Intelligence Brief Vendor Master module. Your CFO and Finance Controller can act on it the same day.

The next highest-value automation for your finance team is identified during the engagement - typically in Monthly Brief #2 or #3. Sprints 2-4 are available to registered clients.

Sprint 2 - Duplicate Payment Detection

Register interest

At INR 25 Cr+ monthly AP spend, duplicate payments are not an edge case - they are a statistical certainty. Same vendor, same invoice amount, two payments. Or same invoice number, two vendors. The money leaves the account before anyone notices.

Sprint 3 - AP Exception Intelligence

Register interest

Low first-pass match rates mean your AP team spends most of its time resolving exceptions manually - PO mismatches, quantity variances, invoice header errors. The exceptions pile up, payment cycles stretch, and vendor relationships suffer.

Register Interest

Sprint 4 - AR Collections Intelligence

Register interest

Collections teams work from static ageing reports. By the time a receivable hits the 90-day bucket, the window for easy recovery has closed. Intelligence applied earlier - at 15 and 30 days - changes the outcome.

Register Interest

After the Sprint

One retainer. All active modules. One monthly brief.

After each Sprint, IQSS continues to operate what was built. The Monthly Finance Operations Intelligence Brief covers every active module - updated with fresh data every month, delivered with a 30-minute walkthrough call.

As you add Sprints, the retainer expands. The Monthly Brief grows. The intelligence compounds.

FAQ

Common questions about Sprints

What does Sprint 1 deliver?

A running Vendor Master Intelligence system on your ERP data. Not a one-time cleanup - a monitoring layer that runs continuously after we leave. You get flagged vendor records, GSTIN compliance status, and a monthly brief on changes in your vendor base.

How long does Sprint 1 take?

8 weeks from kickoff to handover. Week 1 is data access and scoping. Weeks 2-6 are build and validation. Weeks 7-8 are parallel run and handover.

What happens after Sprint 1?

After Sprint 1, IQSS operates the monitoring system on retainer, delivering the Monthly Brief every month on fresh data. Retainer fee is confirmed at Sprint completion. If the Diagnostic identified additional exposure in duplicate payments or AP exceptions, Sprint 2 addresses those.

What does Sprint 1 cost?

Fixed-price, scoped after the Diagnostic. Pricing is confirmed at the start of the engagement based on ERP complexity and vendor master size.
