## What the AI takes over in your procurement

### Inquiries and bid comparison

The AI reads purchase requisitions, selects suitable suppliers from your supplier master data and creates the inquiries on your own template. It compares incoming quotes directly by price, lead time and terms.

### Prepare negotiations

For every supplier, quote history, on-time delivery, quality and the development of the relevant raw material and price indices are ready. Your team goes into every conversation with reliable figures.

### Detect risks early

The AI continuously rates all suppliers by quality and on-time delivery and warns as soon as a supplier slips. It detects expiring certificates and automatically requests a new one from the supplier.

## How the AI works in your procurement

1. **Capture the requirement.** A purchase requisition arrives by email, and the AI reads it completely.
2. **Send supplier inquiries.** The AI selects suitable suppliers from your supplier master data and creates the inquiries on your template, and with one click they are sent.
3. **Compare quotes.** Prices, lead times and terms appear side by side in the bid comparison, so your buyer immediately sees which quote fits best.
4. **Onboard suppliers.** During onboarding, the AI handles the sanctions screening, checks details and documents and stores certificates and contracts centrally.
5. **Keep suppliers in view.** Ratings, price indices and certificates are tracked continuously, and the dashboard breaks everything down by supplier.
