Ingenosya

What Ingenosya does

Ingenosya is a privately held Entreprise de Services Numériques (ESN) operating since 1999 from Paris, France, and Antananarivo, Madagascar. The French parent (Ingenosya SARL) wholly owns the Malagasy operating entity (Ingenosya SA), which serves as the primary delivery center housing over 150 software engineers working across front-end, back-end, and full-stack development. The company sells outsourced IT services to French and European clients, leveraging the cost differential of Madagascar-based delivery while maintaining a French commercial presence in Paris for proximity to enterprise buyers.

Its service portfolio spans four delivery modes: fixed-price software development (au forfait), time-and-materials (en régie) at agreed daily rates, iterative Agile development, and third-party application maintenance (TMA) including MCO and Crédit Temps packages (10-20 day prepaid credits valid 6-12 months). Underlying these are five technology specializations: AI/ML (using TensorFlow, PyTorch, LangChain, Hugging Face); Odoo ERP implementation as an official Odoo partner; Business Intelligence using open-source (Pentaho, Talend, JasperReports) and commercial (Microsoft BI, Qlik, PowerBI) tools; web and mobile application development (React, Angular, Vue.js, React Native, Swift, Kotlin); and broader digital transformation consulting. The technology stack targets enterprise clients requiring ERP integration, custom application development, data analytics, and modernization of legacy systems.

The business model is professional services revenue with three primary streams: project-based (one-time), time-based (monthly billing), and recurring maintenance (credit-time prepaid). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. GTM is direct enterprise sales via the Paris office, supplemented by content marketing (technical blog), LinkedIn/Facebook presence, and SEO. Customer segments are horizontal across SMEs/mid-market and enterprise organizations, primarily in France and Europe, with Orange (telecommunications) as the only publicly named client logo. The company is founder-managed with no disclosed external institutional investment.
