The Challenge
Spend data sits across multiple ERP instances, purchasing cards and expense systems, with free-text descriptions and inconsistent supplier names that make any category rollup unreliable.
- 1Spend fragmented across ERP instances, purchasing cards and expense systems
- 2Supplier names inconsistent across entities, so total relationship spend is unknown
- 3Free-text line descriptions defeating any reliable category classification
Our Approach
CloudGate consolidates spend from every ERP, card and expense system onto Microsoft Fabric, using Azure OpenAI to classify free-text line items into a consistent category taxonomy and resolving supplier identity across entities.
- Spend consolidation across all ERP instances, purchasing cards and expense systems
- AI-based classification of free-text line items into a consistent category taxonomy
- Supplier identity resolution exposing total relationship spend across entities
