In the demanding construction and architecture sectors, where rigorous site management and cost control are daily imperatives, the reform of electronic invoicing represents a real challenge, but also an opportunity for digital transformation. To support this transition, specialized software publishers are integrating the Docoon Approved Platform as a white label, offering their customers compliant, automated, and secure solutions.
This approach not only simplifies the administrative and financial management of projects, but also ensures regulatory compliance in a constantly changing environment. iXbat, OOTI, and Silexx perfectly illustrate this dynamic by using Docoon Invoice technology to achieve smoother, more reliable, and more efficient management of invoicing processes.
iXbat: for tailor-made construction, compliance becomes an asset
CGSI, publisher of the iXbat ERP, has been addressing the technical and regulatory needs of medium-sized construction companies for nearly 40 years. With the reform coming into force, its President Yves de Laroche chose Docoon PA as a white label, primarily to provide its customers with simplified and seamless invoice management.
The "iXbat × Docoon" experience stands out for:
- End-to-end project support : Docoon's quality of support and regulatory expertise convinced CGSI, well before the question of pricing.
- Advanced features for incoming invoices : the solution aims to achieve up to 100% automatic reconciliation between supplier invoices and internal data, compared to 80% previously with OCR/RAD technology.
- Electronic archiving for evidentiary purposes certified NF Z 42-013 for 10 years and qualified eIDAS signature : key requirements for companies that manage large volumes of sensitive documents related to construction sites.
The modularity of the Docoon solution, combined with CGSI's business expertise in the construction industry, has made it possible to transform legal obligations into opportunities to create value for end customers.
WHITE PAPER
Docoon Invoice: the approved white label/gray label electronic invoicing platform for publishers.
The guide to integrating a white-label or gray-label Approved Platform into your tools.
OOTI: prioritizing architecture, simplicity, and integration
OOTI is management software designed for architecture firms and engineering offices, known for its ability to simplify the lives of firm employees. With the integration of Docoon as a white label solution, OOTI now offers its users electronic invoicing management without complexity or compromising on compliance.
The benefits observed:
- Easier compliance : OOTI users don't have to worry about the regulatory maze; everything is automated thanks to Docoon.
- Automation of administrative processes : architects can focus on their core business, while invoice management becomes a mere formality. For large architectural firms, the accounting department saves considerable time and can devote itself to tasks with higher added value.
- Adaptability to all client profiles : architects work in both the public and private sectors. For public projects, all invoices go through Chorus Pro, the government platform. Docoon, as a Chorus Pro hub, can send and retrieve invoices for public clients. For private projects, invoices go through an Access Point with Docoon Invoice.
- Flexibility of the solution. Full integration: customers work exclusively in OOTI. Partial integration: certain features are accessible via Docoon Invoice.
Silexx: Facilitating the digital transformation of construction companies
Silexx, a construction site management software designed to support construction companies, has announced its recent partnership with Docoon to integrate gray-label PA. Its goal: to support construction companies in their transition to mandatory electronic invoicing and remove all technical barriers.
What are the benefits for Silexx customers?
- Immediate regulatory compliance : Docoon PA now allows Silexx users to anticipate the reform, avoiding any risk of blockages or penalties.
- Automation and reliability : significant time savings in financial monitoring of construction sites, reduction in manual tasks.
- Security of exchanges : all data is archived and transmitted in accordance with the most stringent standards, with enhanced protection against fraud risks.
- Sector-specific added value : the solution is designed for the specific needs of the construction industry, where invoice management involves numerous documents (purchase orders, work reports, contracts, etc.).
Some key lessons from these partnerships
All these players agree on one thing: integrating a PA such as Docoon as a white label solution means:
- Don't just endure reform, take advantage of it : transforming a regulatory constraint into an opportunity to digitize, harmonize, and secure financial management.
- Securing customer support : By relying on Docoon, publishers guarantee high-level technical and regulatory support.
- Agility and adaptability : responding to the diverse needs of the sector (mid-sized companies, SMEs, large accounts, specialized professions).
- Risk management : fewer blocked flows, multiple interfaces, and dependencies on non-certified or insufficiently mature players.
These solutions give construction and architecture professionals peace of mind in the face of reform, save time in invoice management, and the opportunity to strengthen their customer relationships through high value-added service.
By integrating the Docoon Approved Platform as a white label, iXbat, OOTI, and Silexx demonstrate that innovation also depends on choosing the right technology partners. This is how compliance, security, and simplicity become performance drivers for construction companies, architectural firms, and design offices , which can now approach regulatory transition with ambition and confidence.
FAQ – Integrating a gray-label PA: everything you need to know 😊
1️⃣ What is gray-label integration with Docoon Invoice?
A white-label integration involves connecting your ERP to the Docoon Invoice certified platform while maintaining a shared brand identity: your customer knows that you work with Docoon, but you remain their main point of contact. It is a hybrid solution that combines the power of a government-approved PA with the flexibility of a transparent partnership.
2️⃣ What are the concrete advantages of gray branding for a publisher?
- Simplicity and speed : no need to become an approved platform yourself or obtain ISO/IEC 27001 or SecNumCloud certifications.
- Sharing responsibilities : Docoon manages regulatory compliance, while you maintain the business relationship.
- Enhanced credibility : your customers know that you work with a state-approved PA, which reassures them.
- Economic flexibility : flexible pricing models (co-billing, bundles, etc.).
- Reduced image risk : in the event of an incident, responsibility is shared.
3️⃣ How does this differ from white label integration?
In white label, your customer only sees your brand: you take full responsibility and manage all support, even though the technology comes from Docoon.
With gray label, the relationship is more balanced: Docoon is identified as an approved technology partner. You remain the commercial face, but benefit from Docoon's legitimacy and support.
4️⃣ What benefits do your end customers get from this?
Your customers benefit from:
- a solution compliant and certified by the government,
- an ready-to-use electronic invoicing system, without complex technical management,
- the continuity of their relationship with you, their usual publisher,
- and the Docoon guarantee in terms of security, compliance, and availability.
It is a reassuring and scalable approach, ideal for small and medium-sized businesses that want to be ready by 2026.
5️⃣ Why choose Docoon as your PA partner?
Docoon is one of the first platforms approved (PA #0019) by the DGFiP (French Public Finance Directorate), originating in the world of software publishers. It offers:
- a seamless integration via REST/GraphQL API,
