Your operation doesn't need one more system. It needs the IKKI Method: 35 years turning management into +20% profitability for Brazilian companies from R$ 5 million to R$ 6 billion.

The questions salespeople dodge.

We answer honestly, including the points where a competitor may be a better fit for your case.

• How long does it take to implement IKKI?

  60 days for small companies (up to R$ 10M/year in revenue), 90 to 150 days for mid-sized ones (R$ 10-100M) and 180 to 240 days for large ones (above R$ 100M). The deadline is in the contract, not an estimate.

• What is included in the IKKI subscription?

  The complete platform (ERP + native BI), version updates, cloud infrastructure and support with a 4 business hour SLA. Phanes.IA and the Tax Diagnostic are contracted as optional add-ons as needed.

• How much does IKKI cost per month?

  The investment is calibrated to the size of the company and the complexity of the operation, always tailored in the contract. What we hear often: it comes out far lower than people expect and pays for itself in less than 12 months through the ROI it generates (new margin + expense reduction + tax recovery + less rework). Before you sign, our calculator shows the ROI expected for your scenario, and you receive a detailed proposal within 48 hours of the 30-minute diagnostic.

• Does it work for my industry?

  We serve 14 industries with pre-calibrated modules: manufacturing (food, chemical, steel, pharmaceutical), construction, logistics, retail, physical security, agribusiness, distributors, importers, exporters, service providers and contract management.

• Is the diagnostic really free?

  Yes. A one-hour consultative session by video call, no cost, no credit card, no product signup. You leave with a map of opportunities whether or not you work with us. Our guarantee: if you do not take away 3 applicable insights, we offer R$ 500 in additional consulting for free.

• What is Phanes.IA?

  It is IKKI's data intelligence platform, a hub that connects ERP, CRM, finance and operations, applying AI to detect patterns, anomalies and forecast indicators. The name comes from the Greek Φάνης (Phánēs), the primordial deity who brings to light what was hidden.

• How does IKKI compare to traditional ERPs?

  Detailed comparison at /comparativo. In short: implementation in 60-240 days (vs 6-18 months in the market), embedded consulting included (vs billed separately), native BI with no add-on (vs a separate license). IKKI's investment is tailored to company size and typically comes out far below a standard corporate budget, with a detailed proposal within 48h of the diagnostic.

• Is there a guarantee after signing?

  Yes. A 90-day guarantee after go-live. If the indicators agreed in the contract were not met, we refund the project investment. It is a firm position, we trust the IKKI Method refined over 35 years.

• Can I talk to an IKKI client before signing?

  Yes. LEMCA (client since 2004), Schurter (2008), Village (2010), JC Durigam (2012), Friozem (2016), Presmak (2018) and FBF Engenharia (2018) are all available to speak with you directly before you decide. Ask for it through the contact form.

• What if my company grows?

  The platform scales automatically to the next size tier with no reimplementation. Settings, master data and history migrate without rework. It is one of the reasons LEMCA has been with us for 21 years, it started small and grew without changing ERP.
