Ask Ari.
Ask Ari to find a supplier.
Ask Ari how much we spent.
Ari is Maxari’s managed procurement platform for the long tail of indirect spend: the hundreds of small, urgent, one-off buys that clog your AP. One supplier of record. One open PO. One invoice.
No vendor? No part number? That’s the point.
Send a description, a photo, an obsolete number. We research it, cross-reference substitutes, vet the seller, and come back with options you can approve. Then we buy it, handle the supplier, and put it on one invoice.
Describe it
A part number, a photo, a sentence in an email. Whatever you have. Ari reads it, extracts the lines and opens a case in seconds.
We find it
Ari searches supplier catalogs and cross-references substitutes when the original is obsolete. A Maxari buyer vets the seller and checks price, lead time and terms.
You approve
Options land in your inbox or portal, routed on your own approval thresholds, with the budget impact shown before anyone signs off.
One invoice
We raise the PO, pay the supplier, chase delivery, and roll everything into one consolidated invoice against your open PO or P-card.
Ask. Approve. Done.
Your people keep working the way they already do. Ari and the Maxari purchasing desk do the rest.
Ask
Raise a request from the portal, by email to your dedicated Ari address, or from inside Oracle iProcurement or SAP Ariba through punch-out. No second login.
Ari sources
AI search across catalogs, part cross-referencing and substitutes for obsolete items, compliance checks on submit, and a human buyer on every non-trivial purchase.
You approve
Quotes compared on price, lead time and terms. Approvals mirror your delegation of authority, with budget impact by cost code before sign-off.
We deliver
Maxari is your supplier of record. We place the orders, track delivery, pay every underlying vendor and send one consolidated invoice.
Today, with Ari.
Tail spend is small money that costs big effort. Hundreds of vendors collapse into one supplier of record, and your AP team stops processing checks for gloves and light bulbs.
Size my tailEverything that isn’t core spend.
Pass-through payments such as donations, memberships and associations are paid by check or ACH and always credited in your name and EIN. Maxari is the processing mechanism, never the donor.
Live spend visibility
Spend under management, realized savings against target, cycle time and on-time delivery, by site, category and supplier. Manager and requester views.
Ask, in plain English
Natural-language answers grounded in your own procurement data, with guardrails. Not a general chatbot, and never trained on your data.
One thread per request
Portal messages and emails in one place. Every quote, approval, PO, receipt and invoice on a single audit trail, with tenant data fully isolated.
Stop chasing your tail.
Send 12 months of AP data: vendor, category, spend. We’ll size your tail and show you what one open PO would look like.
