Outcomes realised by Cantill customers
The problem

Fragmented data and legacy workflows are bleeding money out of procurement.

Most teams run world-class categories on top of duplicate ERP records, 16-week RFPs and a patchwork of tools that don't speak to each other. The cost shows up everywhere.

SILOS

Data duplication & ERP complexity

Messy, duplicate ERP data that's never the source of truth — and a UI so complex that basic tasks need experts.

BLIND

No spend visibility or compliance

Modules don't talk to each other, purchases across BUs go unseen, and non-contracted suppliers slip through.

LEGACY

Gap with existing solutions

Legacy, ML-era suites with long, costly implementations that still demand heavy manual intervention.

MANUAL

Death by manual work

Sending POs, 3-way matching, 16-week RFXs, supplier follow-ups — all still pushed by hand.

60%of team time focused on low-value work
30%increase in non-compliant buying
50%more FTEs required just to keep up
Platform on a page

One AI-native suite across the entire source-to-pay chain.

Product deep dive

Eight modules. One flow.

An omnichannel Intake module, five Source-to-Contract modules and two Procure-to-Pay modules — each AI-native on its own, together carrying a request from first ask to final payment without leaving the platform.
