Apps Purchases: 10+ Million Software Purchases
Founded in 2010, APPS RUN THE WORLD is a leading technology intelligence and market-research company devoted to the application space. Leveraging a rigorous data-centric research methodology, we ask the simple B2B sales intelligence question: Who’s buying enterprise applications from whom and why?
Our global team of 50 researchers has been studying the digital transformation initiatives being undertaken by 2 million + companies including technographic segmentation of 10 million ERP, EPM, CRM, HCM, Procurement, SCM, Treasury software purchases, aggregating massive amounts of data points that form the basis of our forecast assumptions and perhaps the rise and fall of certain vendors and their products on a quarterly basis.
Apps Run The World Buyer Insight and Technographics Customer Database has over 100 data fields that detail company usage of emerging technologies such as AI, Machine Learning, IoT, Blockchain, Autonomous Database, and different on-prem and cloud apps by function, customer size (employees, revenues), industry, country, implementation status, year deal won, partner involvement, Line of Business Key Stakeholders and key decision-makers contact details, including the systems being used by Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 companies.

AstraZeneca | Life Sciences | 94300 | $74.0B | United Kingdom | Labguru | Labguru Equipment Management | Inventory Management | 2015 | n/a | In 2015 AstraZeneca deployed Labguru Equipment Management to centralize Inventory Management of biological reagents and bio-collections across its global Discovery Sciences research sites, establishing a single system for research inventory management and cross-site visibility. The Labguru Equipment Management implementation targeted reagent and bioasset catalogs and was positioned to reduce duplication of materials by surfacing inventory holdings across multiple laboratories. Configuration emphasized reagent inventory tracking, bio-collection cataloging, simplified reagent workflows, and automated data sheet generation, aligning with common Inventory Management capabilities for lab environments. The deployment delivered fast time-to-use for researchers and embedded collaboration features to support reuse of bioassets and coordinated handling of reagents across teams. Operationally the rollout covered multiple Discovery Sciences research sites with a centralized instance and standardized workflows to enable consistent data capture and inventory governance. Process changes focused on simplifying reagent procedures and instituting automated documentation, which improved reagent visibility and collaboration without introducing additional named integrations. | |

Tata Steel UK | Manufacturing | 8000 | $3.5B | United Kingdom | iov42 | Interu by iov42 | Traceability Management | 2022 | n/a | In 2022 Tata Steel UK collaborated with iov42 on an R&D prototype that implemented Interu by iov42 within a Traceability Management context. The engagement focused on proving blockchain and distributed ledger technology enabled digital product passports and electronic proof of delivery to assess steel supply chain traceability and delivery verification in the United Kingdom. The prototype configuration aligned with Traceability Management capabilities, emphasizing a distributed traceability ledger, digital product passport generation, event logging for material movements, and cryptographic proof constructs to bind provenance records. Interu by iov42 was used to model product lifecycle events and to demonstrate end to end visibility from dispatch to receipt, reflecting typical traceability workflows such as asset serialization, custody transfer recording, and verification at delivery. Deployment scope was limited to an R&D prototype environment operating with Tata Steel UK and selected supply chain partners in the UK, not a full production rollout. The technical architecture emphasized ledger anchoring and immutable event records, with implementation workstreams concentrated in supply chain, logistics, operations, and quality functions to validate record capture and verification processes. Governance for the proof of concept centered on iterative prototype sprints between Tata Steel UK and iov42, with data provenance and record integrity as primary controls to evaluate. The engagement served to inform future Traceability Management decisions by demonstrating Interu by iov42 capabilities for digital passports and proof of delivery without asserting production outcomes. | |
