Guide every purchase request to approval.

A colleague asks in Slack for a new analytics vendor. We turn that request into supplier intake, route its risk and approvals, and carry a scored RFP into the buying decision when sourcing is needed.

The buying decision keeps its risk context.

01 · How it works

A purchase starts before the purchase order.

Follow one request from the first message to the reviewers who can approve it. Procurement sees the context and the outstanding decision.

  1. 01

    Capture the request

    Autonomous Intake turns the request into supplier, service, spend, and data-access details. The employee sees what we still need.

  2. 02

    Research the supplier

    We check the existing relationship, supporting documents, and inherent risk before procurement selects a review path.

  3. 03

    Route the decisions

    Workflow Autopilot sends finance, security, legal, and procurement the work their policies require, including parallel approvals.

  4. 04

    Compare vendors when needed

    Autonomous RFP brings weighted responses and pricing into the sourcing decision before the purchase order handoff.

02 · In context

A purchase request should not lose its risk context.

A supplier that handles customer data needs different evidence from one that delivers office supplies. We bring the engagement facts into each approval instead of making every team start with an empty form.

03 · Capabilities
04 · Advantages

The buyer and the reviewer see the same request.

A request anyone can start

We collect the details in plain language rather than asking employees to learn the procurement process.

Supplier checks before approval

We flag payment-account and inherent-risk issues for procurement while there is time to act.

Each reviewer has a task

The request shows whose approval is needed and where a decision is still pending.

Sourcing stays connected

An RFP award feeds the supplier intake and risk review instead of becoming a separate paper trail.

05 · Questions

Where does the request go?

The handoffs between the request and purchase.

Is intake only for new suppliers?

Intake starts with new supplier and purchase requests. During scoping, we map how requests for existing vendors should route in your process.

What do your agents do?

We gather request context, research the supplier, assess inherent risk, and route work under your policy.

Can teams approve in parallel?

Yes. Workflow Autopilot routes independent finance, legal, security, and procurement reviews in parallel where your process allows.

Do you issue the purchase order?

We prepare the approved request and its context for the procurement handoff. We will map the purchase-order step to your systems during scoping.

Bring a purchase request. We'll keep its risk context attached.
