What we operate · Procurement & Back Office

Procurement & Back Office, run with AI and human oversight.

We run vendor onboarding, PO checks and operational reconciliations behind the scenes.

The work

What we take over.

Back-office work is high-volume, rules-based and spread across systems that don't talk to each other.

  • Vendor onboarding
  • PO and contract checks
  • Supplier communications
  • Data entry across systems
  • Operational reporting
  • Operational reconciliations

Systems involved

  • SAP Ariba
  • Coupa
  • Oracle
  • Snowflake
  • Supplier portals

What humans own

Buyers and operations leads approve new vendors, commitments outside tolerance and supplier disputes.

Outcome metrics we report

  • Vendor onboarding time
  • Cost per transaction
  • Data accuracy
  • Backlog age

Operating model

Operate is where the relationship begins.

Most AI projects end at deployment. Ours start there: once a workflow is live, we run it and improve it against the outcome we agreed.

Human judgment

People decide anything that needs judgment, authority or accountability.

Approval controls

Thresholds and maker-checker rules you set — enforced on every item.

Traceability

Inputs, decision summary, action and approver logged for every task.

Escalation handling

Clear routing decides who sees which exception, and how fast.

SLA ownership

We own the workflow's service levels and report against them monthly.

Secure integration

Least-privilege access through your identity provider and systems.
