Happy Clients
More than 2 extremely satisfied customers!
Overview and Compliance
2nd January 2013 My expectation with buboINVOICE was to achieve a tool, providing KAB with overview of more than 300 divisions/procurement officers spend. My expectations were
completely fulfilled. Now, with a few cliques we can easily and fast establish an overview of both the individual divisions’ procurement and the individual vendors’ sales. Further we can very easily create an overview of our contracts fulfillment, in total as well as in the individual division
Analyzes, Management Reporting and Industry Network
8th January 2013Why we chose the system? It appears much more user friendly. Navigating the system is logical and intuitive. The reporting functionalities with automatic dispatch option to requested entities with individual information, relative to the organizational level (i.e. director, professions specialist and manager). The development opportunities and this specific focus in relation to strategic procurement and the system users needs. GIS-overview. Your dedication to the system with a high degree of professionalisme, passion and engagement, and the fact that you are available 24-7 via e-mail and phone.
Maria Weiglin, Division ManagerFrederikssund Kommune
Controlling, Cost Savings, Cost Avoidance and Workflow
7th January 2013 The system is very intuitive and easily creates an overview of the data. It is flexible, and we get a view of the data in many different ways and with a very high level of detail. The answering times are good and provide a very good workflow. We experience a very good sparring and fast support from BuboBubo.
Further we are met with courtesy when uploading of finance data, e-business information, requesting help for reports creation etc. A network among user-communities is under establishment just now, allowing the possibility of learning and sparring with other users.
Match rates and Top Lists
19th October 2012Bubobubo has been a remarkably good tool to create overview of the communities’ procurement; it has facilitated the management reporting and the daily controlling of decentrale divisions and with this increased the compliance on our procurement agreements. Further and not least, it has significantly increased the efficiency of analyzing required for tenders.
Martin Larsen, Procurement ConsultantAllerød Kommune
Manageable and User Friendly
19th December 2013Assens Kommune has been part of a project with buboCONTRACT. We found bubboCONTRACT very useful for contracted applicable goods. buboCONTRACT is a good module – visual, compliance wise, manageable and user friendly. Assens Kommune warmly recommends buboCONTRACT as contract management tool.

Compliance rating
3rd April 2014I have been playing a bit with Bubo V.2. It just gets better and better. Among others it has become very easy to make a fast ”compliance rating” of our institutions/divisions. I believe it will create a large effect in a very positive sense, when the responsible persons can actually see whether they are better or worse, compared to their colleges 🙂

Peter Pan Quote
THE MOMENT YOU DOUBT WHETHER YOU CAN FLY, YOU CEASE FOREVER TO BE ABLE TO DO IT
Peter Panbubobubo – the Story
Our name fell from the sky 1-2-2012. A google search inspirered us.
Our BACKGROUND: We were in good jobs. we worked with finance, purchasing, public sector (+300 public tenders, +100 vendor negotiations), Excel , powerpoint shows, analyses, profit realisation, ERP systems, implementation of ERP systems, data data data, and we had done that most of our lives.
Now we thought was time for us (2 guys) to challenge a strongly consolidated market: on one side:the systems market (thousonds of staff, private aircraft hangar with jets and helicopters) and on the second side Consulting: a huge number of small, midsized, and large companies, all hunting business in the public sector as consequnce of the financial crises and following closure of the privat sector.
We quit our jobs – went to bank to pledge our cars, cashed in all our debits and prepared our loved ones on the risk of loosing house and home. Far out.
We needed a name.
No interest in “Gregersen & Petersen” – out of fear of disappearing in the crowd. On the other hand: we also thought “no way” to going overly creative with a “z” (creazive)
Our CHALLENGE: Tomorrow, on the 1st day of new lives, we must stand shining on the largest Danish public fair in the city of Århus. Finding the name for the company was getting urgent.
1st idea: banana (rather childish). Dropped the name, though, for being too close to Apple.
2nd idea: Thoughout carreers we both experienced colorsfull tests from Human Ressource deptm. Lately we had both been exposed to he DISCanalysis with colors and birds. A test we had often laughed at. We were significantly red and blue, owls and eagels.
Ohh DAMMIT: We are free birds. Out of cage. Our solution ment to create overview and insight.
Google search:eagle AND owl… hit for ‘eagleowl’. There was something like an eagleowl in English language… fantastic. Further Wikipedia informed the Latin name of the owl as ‘bubo’ and of the subspecies ‘eagleowl’ also bubo. Conclusion: an eagleowl is a ‘bubobubo’. In Danish ‘Hornugle’. The characteristic yellow eyes and beak (demonstrated in the company logo), OIO, was the final push towards decision. OIO is exactly the electronic data format,mandatory for all vendors invoicing of public customers. Well, that some customers believe us to be named ‘hubabuba’, ‘boopiboopi’ etc. and the fact that we receive calls from parents asking for the clown for their coming kids party are just addding to the fun.
Our INSPIRATION: The EagleOwl (latin: bubo bubo), a very large and powerful bird, smaller than the Golden Eagle, but larger than the Snowy Owl. Great size and orange eyes. A strong, direct flight, consisting of shallow wing beats and long, fast glides. Is known to soar on updrafts on a few occasions.
