knooing Purchasing Co-Pilot Now Available on SAP® Store

By integrating with SAP Ariba solutions, Purchasing Co-Pilot from knooing GmbH delivers – based on a unique Knowledge Base – a new way of detecting spend optimization potentials in the supplier selection and finding the best fitting software for individual requirements.

Munich — 01.09.2023 — knooing GmbH today announced that its Purchasing Co-Pilot is now available on SAP^® Store, the online marketplace for SAP and partner offerings. Purchasing Co-Pilot integrates with SAP Ariba solutions to help customers make more informed software sourcing decisions faster.

 “Integrated with SAP Ariba solutions, Purchasing Co-Pilot can make your Sourcing Process faster and improve operational efficiencies,” said Carsten Hochschon, CEO and Founder of knooing GmbH.

“By using AI and our extensive Knowledge Base, we’re able to enrich supplier and software data automatically and make it usable for free text search-requests. Thereby our solution not only checks your own data for fitting solutions but also compares the external market, giving you the opportunity to save time and optimize spend.”

The Munich based company developed and optimized the Purchasing Co-Pilot over the last few years to give companies with a large supplier portfolio a tool that can enrich and work with great data sets during their SAP Ariba journey.

“Our customers find our Matching Matrix especially beneficial to make an informed and unbiased decision in their Procurement Process.” Hochschon explains, “Every requirement extracted from your Sourcing request is checked against your solutions stored in SAP Ariba solutions and compared with the Market offerings in a clear and structured overview. That way you always have full transparency and accessible knowledge about the potential of your own suppliers and what the best fitting solution is.”

The Purchasing Co-Pilot can be used for any system and industry.

Customers can also add their individual use cases for the different solutions to store their knowledge at one central point of information. Optionally, they can submit ratings for solutions and suppliers as well.
