Faster S2P cycle
- Sourcing through payment connected in one platform
- Continuous contract enforcement post-award
- GL coding automated across all freight cost centers
S2P spans sourcing, contracting, requisition, ordering, receiving, invoice, audit, payment. Generic S2P platforms break on multi-modal freight complexity. Freehand connects every step into one AI platform.
Procurement runs sourcing once a year. Contracts drift between cycles.
Contracts loaded manually into systems. Errors compound at billing.
Freight requisitions require approvals, route through email and spreadsheets.
Manual matching of receipts to POs and shipment data creates close-cycle errors.
BPO audits 5-10% of invoices monthly. Most billing errors slip through.
Coupa, SAP Ariba, Oracle don't handle multi-modal freight complexity.
RFQs generated from lane data. Bids normalized. Awards based on multi-objective optimization.
Contracts loaded automatically. Rates, accessorials, service terms in one queryable layer.
Freight requisitions auto-routed by threshold. Approvals run in hours.
Receipts matched to POs and shipment data automatically.
Every invoice validated against contracts at receipt. No sampling.
Payment files generated in ERP format and pushed on schedule.
RFQs generated from historical lane data.
Rates, accessorials, terms in queryable layer.
