iAdvise

What iAdvise does

iAdvise NV is a privately held Belgian IT consultancy founded in 2004 and headquartered in Kontich, with a secondary office in Breda, Netherlands. The firm specializes in custom software development built on the Oracle APEX low-code platform, complemented by Oracle Forms-to-APEX modernization services, Oracle APEX training, and an advisory sub-brand called co-Advise. Its go-to-market is consultative and project-based: account managers engage enterprise clients directly, run workshops and feasibility analyses, and execute two-week Agile sprints to deliver bespoke applications that integrate with clients' existing Oracle databases, ERP systems, Terminal Operating Systems (TOS), and platforms such as Salesforce. Revenue is generated almost entirely through professional services (custom development and training), with no disclosed productized or self-serve offering, and no publicly available pricing.

The company's customer base spans port and logistics operators (PSA Antwerp, ITC Antwerp, CSP, ICO), industrial manufacturers (CNH Industrial), chemical and energy firms (BASF Antwerpen), media companies (GroupM Belgium for 20 years, DPG Media), healthcare providers (Heilig Hartziekenhuis Lier, VHKZ), and other organizations (Auctim, Wickey, ZLM, Wit-Gele Kruis, Vlaams Parlement). Notable engagements include a 2,000-manday modernization of GroupM's Nimbus application and a truck-planning tool that delivered an estimated 30% efficiency gain at a port-sector client. iAdvise employs 101–250 people, has no external investors or disclosed funding rounds, and is led by managing partners Tuur Hendrickx and Ronny Boeykens.

The technology stack is anchored on Oracle APEX, with newer extensions into Progressive Web Apps and Oracle's AI service suite (OCI Generative AI, Document Understanding, AI Vector Search, Language, and Autonomous Database Select AI) enabling RAG chatbots, automated document processing, vector-based search, and natural-language querying of business data. iAdvise pursues a holistic development methodology covering strategy, people, knowledge, and process, and combines content marketing, LinkedIn/Facebook presence, a quarterly newsletter, conference participation (e.g., Oracle APEX World, Oracle Data & AI Forum), and educational workshops (e.g., Hogeschool PXL) to build its brand and talent pipeline in the Benelux market.
