Case Study: Coty achieves streamlined, scalable supply-chain integration with Information Builders' iWay Integration Suite

iWay Software Helps Coty Support Rapid Mergers and Acquisitions

Coty, a global beauty company with well-known brands and a rapid series of acquisitions, faced the challenge of integrating disparate internal systems and third‑party partner environments to keep supply‑chain, logistics, and financial information flowing in real time. The company needed a flexible, cost‑effective middleware solution to unify diverse ERPs and external systems without extensive custom coding.

Coty deployed Information Builders’ iWay Integration Suite to create a broad A2A and B2B integration layer, quickly building over 120 internal interfaces and 210 partner interfaces that now handle millions of messages per month. The solution reduced manual coding time (avoiding an estimated year of work), delivered payback within two months, improved error handling and manageability, and enabled more efficient outsourcing and future acquisitions.
