Aerchain: Revolutionizing your Procurement

CIO Vendor Procurement has long been a vital part of a business’s value stream and an important aspect of business growth and competition. Procurement, much like other areas of business, has been undergoing a massive shift towards increased digitisation and automation. Automation of supply chain management and procurement functions can help an organisation grow, spend less, and save on manual work while avoiding human errors. At the forefront of this rapid digitisation is Aerchain, an AI-driven Source-to-Pay platform that focuses on improving efficiency, enabling savings, making businesses compliant, and improving collaboration between various stakeholders.
Aerchain offers procurement solutions to enterprises via a modular source-to-pay platform. Aerchain features several key modules including cognitive sourcing, smart contract management, e-procurement, tail end spend automation, AI-powered analytics, and deep learning-powered invoicing automation that gives them and their clients a competitive edge.

Seamless and Intelligent Features To Drive Efficiency
Among their many features, Aerchain provides a few distinct modules that set them apart from the crowd. Aerchain drives automation with their tail end spend automation module that takes in requirements via a chatbot, processes them against past data to identify the correct buying channels, negotiates with suppliers, and processes all the way to invoice automation and supplier payments. This seamless automation results in up to 15% hard cash saving.

Aerchain also improves transparency in enterprises with its unique vendor portal. The vendor portal gives visibility to vendors at the convenience of a mobile. It shows POs, contracts, and other key information. Most importantly, it automates query management to provide real-time support to vendors through Vendor Support Bot. 70-80% of vendor queries can be automated this way which improves efficiency and builds trust with vendors.
Invoice automation is another standout feature from Aerchain. This feature uses deep learning to extract data from any invoice format and create an e-invoice and match this against POs & GRN with no manual intervention needed. If there is a dispute or disagreement, Aerchain will root it back to the system's corresponding workflows. Aerchain has achieved 80-90% touchless invoice automation which makes the process free of manual errors and compliant with regulations. Automation also reduces the cost of invoice processing by 70%.
