Progisem

What Progisem does

Progisem earns revenue through two parallel models: (i) one-time software license acquisition priced degressively by module and user count, bundled with mandatory annual maintenance covering updates, support, hotline, and remote assistance; and (ii) multi-year rental contracts bundling usage, maintenance, and updates, convertible to acquisition. Distribution is direct enterprise field sales with structured product demonstrations (approximately two hours via Teams), support for public procurement (AO/UGAP), implementation, training, and go-live assistance, supplemented by partner channels including e-Attestations, Aprovall, Kadys, Orféor, Docoon (RFE electronic invoicing), and Sémaphores, plus event-driven lead generation at the EPL Congress and H'Expo. The company's competitive position rests on regulatory certifications (NF Logiciel since 2012, ISO 9001 since 2013, UGAP reference), deep integration across operational, project, financial, and rental functions via the shared database, and a customer base of 598 establishments and 6,579 active accounts reporting an NPS of 57 versus a 41 SaaS-sector average.
