# How was it developed? ALTO Exchange™ was developed to address a real need, and created from within a mid-size O&G producer in Calgary, AB. ICG and the producer had implemented ALTO Accounts Payable ™. With the benefits gained from the producer using ALTO AP™, ICG identified the opportunity to extend the automation and transparency of the AP work process. The decision was made to create an interface between vendors and producers. ICG worked with the producer and suppliers, captured their concerns and developed an industry leading B2B portal that creates a seamless connection between vendors and producers — improving the quality, accuracy and speed of information flow. The result of all that work is ALTO Exchange™. ##### Post Metadata - Net upvotes: 1
