Orchestrate your procurement in real time

Procurement that starts with a conversation, not a form.

AI-powered source-to-pay around the ERP you already run. Anyone raises a request in plain language; SCH handles the rest.

The suite got installed. The buying never moved into it.

Large procurement platforms work, but only for the procurement team. Everyone else still sends an email, raises a ticket, or buys around the system entirely.

Procurement lives in the system. Nobody else does.

The data is only as good as what somebody re-keys into it, so spend reporting is always a month behind the business.

Requesters learn a form, not a process.

They pick the wrong category, miss the contracted vendor, and the request comes back a week later with questions nobody told them to answer.

Every workaround is spend you cannot see.

The order that went out by email surfaces when the invoice lands, with no PO, no budget check and no contracted price behind it.

So we moved the front door. Anyone describes what they need in their own words, and the platform does the classification, the checks and the routing.

How it works

Request. Orchestrate. Execute.

One request record from the first sentence to the purchase requisition. Requesters, approvers and buyers all work from the same record, and your ERP stays the system of record throughout.

Every request ends in an outcome a buyer can act on.

Requesters, approvers and buyers see the same status, with no chasing. See a request move step by step

Buy something, or just price something.

The first question decides the route. A regular purchase runs the full approval chain. A budgetary estimate skips purchasing and goes straight to the category buyer for a price range.

Regular procurement

Buy something

  1. RequesterDescribes the need, picks item, quantity and vendor, attaches scope and drawings.
  2. Manager approvalThe requester's manager confirms the business need.
  3. Budget approvalPlanned, consumed and remaining budget sit beside the decision.
  4. Procurement reviewThe buyer checks stock, in-transit, open PO and open PR, then approves.

A purchase requisition, or a PO released against an existing contract.

Budgetary estimate

Price something

  1. RequesterDescribes what is being planned. No stock is shown, because nothing is being bought yet.
  2. Manager approvalThe manager signs off on asking for an estimate.
  3. Category buyerGets a range built from historical purchases in the category, plus a typical 5 to 15% negotiation margin, and submits the indicative price.

An indicative price range. No requisition created.

One platform. Every step of the buy.

One request record runs the whole way across. Direct and indirect spend, the same supplier master, and nothing to integrate in the middle.

Running underneath all six

AI agents run underneath all nine. Intake, request validation, approvals, contract renewals, supplier compliance and proactive insight, inside the guardrails your policy sets.

What nobody else can claim

Your ERP stays the system of record. We write back into it.

Most procurement platforms read from your ERP and hand you a second place to look. SCH posts the result back, so the transaction finishes where finance already works.

  • Purchase orders from an awarded bid, created in your ERP without re-keying.
  • Goods receipts created from a warehouse confirmation in SCH.
  • Approved service entry sheets created in your ERP.

Frequently asked questions.

Short answers on your ERP, your suppliers and implementation.

Ask us something else

Does SCH replace our ERP?

No. Your ERP stays the system of record. SCH runs the procurement process around it and posts the result back: purchase orders, goods receipts and approved service entry sheets are created in the ERP.

Which ERPs do you work with?

SCH is certified on SAP S/4HANA, and every published customer runs SAP. The platform also integrates with Microsoft Dynamics. Tell us your ERP landscape and we will walk you through the fit.

How is this different from the suite we already own?

The front door. A suite gives procurement a system and everyone else a form. SCH lets anyone describe what they need in their own words, and handles classification, policy, budget and routing before a buyer ever sees it.

Can suppliers register and onboard themselves?

Yes. Suppliers self-register through the portal, upload documents and track their own onboarding status. Approvals, document validation and expiry reminders are automated from there.

Can we run direct material and BOM-driven sourcing?

Yes. Catalogue, material master and BOM linking sit in the intake step, which is what separates this from indirect-only tools.

How long does implementation take?

It depends on the workflows you start with and your ERP setup. We share a phased rollout plan with timelines after the discovery call.

Bring a recent request. We will walk it from the first sentence to the purchase requisition or the price range, against your ERP rather than a demo tenant.
