Before We Buy

Before We Buy builds Agents that clear the routine chasing between a purchase request and a finance-ready supplier record: gathering missing details, moving approvals and signatures, filing the signed agreement, and warning owners before renewals. They give lean procurement teams back the hours spent asking for paperwork and status while leaving supplier choice, negotiation, legal judgment, and spending decisions with people.

Overview

What to expect from Before We Buy

Start with the supplier purchase that is waiting today. This Channel is for procurement managers with a lean team, a shared inbox and no appetite for another implementation. Its Agents gather missing purchase request details, follow up on supplier setup documents, move approvals and signatures, file the signed agreement, and prepare the finance handoff.

Take the cleaning company starting on 14 October. An Agent asks the supplier for its bank form, reminds the budget owner about approval, and keeps both with the agreement. For the office software vendor renewing on 1 March, it alerts the agreement owner 60 days earlier. Paperwork does enjoy hiding in the inbox.

Subscribe for Agents that work in the tools you already use, plus short guides, comparisons and updates. The Agent finishes checks, reminders, filing and status handoffs under your policy. You and your colleagues still choose the supplier, accept the terms and commit the money.
