The problem

Your processes are defined.
The problem is that they are still manual.

Most companies already have clear procurement rules, policies and workflows. The problem is that many tasks are still carried out manually across email, Excel, ERP, purchasing platforms and documents.

RFIs or RFQs to at least 5 suppliers

One-by-one identification and outreach, emails sent by hand and manual follow-ups.

Questionnaire-based supplier qualification

Sending, reading, analysing and reporting handled through repetitive manual work.

Document checks

Certifications, ESG, cybersecurity, financial reports and administrative documents requested from suppliers and checked manually.

Approval workflows

Requests and authorisations handled via email, Excel, phone calls and steps that are not always traceable.

THE SOLUTION: DATA + AUTOMATION

Agentic procurement built on your data and your processes

A network of AI agents that automates and accelerates purchasing processes using your internal data and verified external sources. Agents run the operational work, while buyers and managers keep decisions and approvals.

Your internal data

Suppliers, spend, contracts, history, documents and master data: the foundation agents work on. Your data stays yours, inside your perimeter.

Verified external data

Certifications, financial reports, ownership structures, country risk context, external events and market signals enrich qualification, monitoring and compliance workflows.

Agentic workflows on your processes

Agents automatically run tasks such as scouting, qualification, requests for quotation, follow-ups, checks, response analysis and data updates.

Use cases

What you can automate with Soource

From supplier scouting to requests for quotation, Soource automates the procurement processes that today rely on email, Excel, manual checks and hand-offs between systems.

  • Search and outreach to new and existing suppliers based on your criteria: industry, region, revenue, certifications, technical requirements and information available in the Soource database.

  • Sending questionnaires, reading responses, checking certifications and documents. Soource reads, structures and presents the picture, while your team approves.

  • Automatic RFI/RFQ dispatch to selected suppliers, follow-up management, quote collection and structured comparison of responses.

  • Soource Intelligence flags risks, opportunities and actions to evaluate, so you can create value and mitigate issues.

  • New information, documents, tags, references and prices are collected, structured and stored in your database. With DataLab you can also refresh any supplier data on demand, both new and historical.
