What Liveware does

Liveware (legal name: LIVEWARE Tecnologia a Serviço) is a privately held Brazilian IT consulting and software firm founded in 1993 and headquartered in Santa Rita do Sapucaí, Minas Gerais. Operating with 11–50 employees, the company positions itself as 100% independent of ERP and system vendors, acting as an objective third party that helps clients maximize the value of their existing IT investments rather than replacing them. Its offer spans digital transformation advisory, application security development, IT consulting, and a proprietary software stack anchored by the EBMS (Enterprise Business Management Solution) platform.

The technical core is EBMS, a proprietary platform that integrates with existing ERPs and synchronizes with accounting and tax records to deliver business planning, simulation, analysis, and cash flow management with near real-time Planned vs. Actual comparison. EBMS is built on Business Intelligence, Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, and Data Warebuilding components and is paired with the proprietary GPC (Gestão Pela Produtividade do Capital) methodology, which converts all operational processes into monetary terms to drive a cash-flow-based budget plan. A complementing offering, Software sob Demanda, provides custom design and integration services that use open-source libraries and iterative delivery to integrate with legacy systems, with the company citing Gartner CHAOS Survey data to claim 7–10x higher success rates for small, phased projects versus large-scale implementations.

Revenue is generated through three streams: professional consulting services driven by the GPC methodology, subscription and support for the EBMS platform, and one-time-fee custom software development. The go-to-market is direct sales-led, with consultative engagement of business owners and executives; the website serves as the primary top-of-funnel content channel. Target verticals are telecommunications, industry and commerce, and project-based companies, with customers spanning small, medium, and large Brazilian enterprises. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, no customer logos are visible on the company website, and there are no disclosed funding rounds, partnerships, awards, M&A activity, or external investors, indicating a self-funded, founder-controlled operating posture.

Broad incumbents

• TOTVS: Brazil's largest ERP and management software provider offering extensive business management platforms. While Liveware competes as an independent systems integrator/consultant, TOTVS represents the dominant platform vendor whose installed base Liveware frequently integrates with and extends via EBMS.
• IBM Consulting: Global IT consulting arm offering ERP transformation, BI, and custom software development. Comparable in consulting services and ERP integration scope, though at vastly larger scale and with global footprint.
• Oracle: Global ERP, database, and analytics provider (NetSuite, E-Business Suite, BI). Comparable in targeting enterprise customers needing integrated BI and ERP capabilities, though Liveware positions as a complementary integrator.
• SAP: Global ERP and business management software leader. Liveware operates as an independent integrator of SAP environments and complements SAP with EBMS for capital productivity and cash flow planning layers SAP does not natively provide.
• Stefanini: Major Brazilian-origin global IT services and consulting firm offering digital transformation, ERP integration, and custom software development. Comparable in IT consulting scope and Brazilian market presence, though Stefanini operates at much larger scale.
• Oracle NetSuite: Cloud ERP/financials platform widely adopted by mid-market companies. Liveware's EBMS platform targets adjacent planning and cash-flow visibility needs that complement NetSuite deployments for SMB/mid-market clients.

Regional players

• Linx: Brazilian retail/management software provider now part of StoneCo. Comparable as a regional player offering integrated management platforms for Brazilian commerce and industry segments that Liveware also serves.
• Sankhya: Brazilian management software provider focused on integrated ERP, BI, and planning for SMBs and mid-market. Comparable as a Brazilian player delivering integrated management+BI+planning solutions to similar customer segments.
• Senior Sistemas: Brazilian provider of ERP and management software serving mid-market and enterprise clients. Comparable as a regional management software provider targeting similar Brazilian SMB/mid-market customers requiring integrated planning and control solutions.

Direct peers
