The problem

Slow approvals and rogue spend hurt everyone

Intelligent routing and policy enforcement

Stopping rogue spend before it starts

Employees don’t need to read procurement manuals. When a free-text request is submitted, our AI evaluates the description, predicts the correct GL code, matches it against existing contracts, and routes it to the right buyer or approver instantly.

Smart GL Coding

Auto-populates accounting codes based on item descriptions and history.

Contract Matching

Alerts the user if they request an item from a non-preferred vendor when a contract exists.

Risk Scoring

FAQ

Questions, answered

Do employees need training to use it?
No. The interface is designed to mimic popular consumer e-commerce sites. If an employee can shop online at home, they can use our platform to make compliant purchases at work.
How do you handle punchout catalogs?
We support standard cXML punchout integrations, allowing your users to seamlessly access supplier websites (like Amazon Business or Dell), build their carts, and pull them back into ProcureSignal for approval.
Can we enforce hard stops on budgets?
Yes. You can configure the system to issue a soft warning, route to a secondary approver, or enforce a hard stop if a requisition exceeds the available budget for that specific cost center or project.
Does this replace our ERP's procurement module?
It acts as the intelligent, user-friendly front end. We handle the shopping, approvals, and AI routing, and then pass the clean, approved Purchase Order back into your ERP as the system of record.
