Alive Business Consulting

Alive Business Consulting is a Sage Platinum Partner founded in 2015 by Yolanda Benito, Ignacio Larrucea, and Javier Riaza. Originally headquartered in Madrid with offices in Bilbao, the firm expanded into Portugal in 2023 by acquiring AddValue, an established Portuguese Sage partner; the Lisbon-area office (in the Odivelas municipality) was integrated into Alive's structure as part of that transaction. Alive operates across six markets - Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Chile, and Brazil - and reports having ranked among the top five European Sage partners. Its consulting practice is centered on Sage X3 for enterprise resource planning and Sage XRT for treasury management, with a team that includes a substantial pool of Sage X3 certified consultants. Alive's Portuguese operations are led by Country Manager David Ferreira and focus on Sage X3 implementations for mid-market industrial, distribution, and services companies. The firm has been recognized by Sage Iberia in the Internationalization category of its Partner Ecosystem Awards and has participated in Sage's Early Adopters program for new product capabilities. Its multi-country footprint makes it a frequent choice for Iberian and Latin American groups requiring coordinated Sage X3 rollouts across multiple subsidiaries.
