Innovative Vinology Information System (IVIS) helps make great wine.
IVIS helps winegrowers and winemakers organize and track all of the information that comes into, and goes out of their vineyards and wineries. This state-of-the-art computer system has been developed specifically for the wine industry. Input from some of the best Oregon, California, Washington, Virginia and British Columbia winemakers has evolved the system into what it is today, and helps to continuously update it. Innovative Vinology Information System uses the winemaker’s own language, never forces unnecessary changes to the winemaking process, and is by far the most comprehensive analytical tool for wine production on the market. Tracking information is made simple, allowing for correct and easy compliance with all state and federal government regulations.

IVIS is 100% committed to customer service.
Though Innovative Vinology Information System is a small, family-run business, training is a top priority, and is given as much time as is required by the individual winegrower or maker. On-site, telephone, and virtual training and updating sessions are all provided. Furthermore, the software grows and evolves with your aspirations, and features are added regularly, as they are needed.

The primary goal of IVIS is to fully satisfy our customers’ needs for an effective and powerful information tool. Our support and experience guarantees that will happen! But don’t just trust us. Check out our fine testimonials.
IVIS works in the Cellar.
IVIS organizes all records involved in the winemaking process. State-of-the-art data capture uses technologies such as smart scales, RFID, pocket PCs, barcodes, work modeling, data uploading, and Artificial Intelligence to help reduce the amount of work, and likelihood of errors in the cellar. Redundant data-entry is eliminated, further adding to the value of your information. Every data-point has multiple uses, meaning that once a volume is entered, for example, its information will appear on every screen where it is relevant. IVIS empowers the winemaker and support staff to do the best possible job, both in winemaking and in keeping “the story of the wine.”
IVIS works in the Vineyard.
IVIS tracks any and all vineyard work down to the vine level. Pesticide and fertilizer applications can be tracked and accumulated to the acre. Sophisticated GPS capability can provide unprecedented control. Costing, payroll support, equipment utilization/maintenance, labor and supply tracking have never been easier. Any number of vineyards can be managed, from within the office or directly in the field.

IVIS works in the Office.
Innovative Vinology Information System smoothly integrates the day-to-day operations of the business by using advanced Relational Database Design, and Electronic Document Management functions. All federal and state government reporting requirements are met, including the new FDA Anti-bioterrorism guidelines. IVIS fully supports any services provided by your winery or vineyard, including custom crush, vineyard management, and consulting, by tracking and determining product and services costing.
