Procurement Intake
The front door for procurement requests, policy guidance, routing, approvals, and workflow orchestration.
What it means
Procurement intake is the process of capturing a business request, understanding what the user needs, applying policy context, and routing the request into the right procurement workflow.
Why it matters
Intake matters because many procurement workflows begin with incomplete requests, unclear ownership, or manual routing. AI-enabled intake can help structure requests earlier and reduce unnecessary handoffs.
