“
Sourcing events are easier to set up, so we can invite more suppliers. With that I expect better prices that fit into the market situation, and that makes us more competitive.
Martin Beck
VP Global Procurement & Supply Chain Excellence

“
For the first time, we have absolute transparency across sourcing events, suppliers, and prices, without slowing the business.
Rick Kiefer
Head of Procurement
“
At some point, the question won’t be, “Which system do I open first in the morning?” Every procurement professional will open Mercanis alongside Outlook and manage their tasks there.

“
The simplicity of Mercanis has enabled us to integrate our stakeholders into the tendering process by using the platform as a self-service solution, and to steer procurement in a more strategic direction.

“
With Mercanis, we can automate and optimize many processes in sourcing and supplier management. This saves us process costs, allows us to obtain four times as many quotes, and gives us more time for important strategic tasks.

“
What impressed us most was how quickly we could achieve results. The onboarding process is smart, allowing us to efficiently engage with suppliers. We reduced supplier onboarding from 6 weeks to 2 weeks.

Where today’s contract management fails

Deadlines

Deadlines

Renewal dates are tracked by hand, if at all. Sooner or later one passes.

Terms

Terms

Prices and payment terms sit in forty pages of text. Every lookup starts from scratch.

Risk

Risk

Weak clauses stay in and only surface once they apply.

Mercanis closes all three, by analysing every contract and turning its terms into usable data.

How it works

No information is missed. Everything that needs human judgement is flagged

1

Analysis starts on upload

Analysis starts on upload.
Contracts arrive as PDFs or scans and are read on upload, without a template and without manual entry.

No contract sits in a folder waiting for someone to find time.

2

The contract becomes a record

The contract becomes a record.
Start and end date, contract type, category and parties are pulled from the text into named fields.

The contract can be searched and filtered like any other record.

3

The commercial terms come out

The commercial terms come out.
Values, dates, payment terms and notice periods land in fields, each one linked back to the clause it came from.

Every extracted figure can be traced back to its clause.

4

Risks flagged before they bind

Risks flagged before they bind.
Clauses that carry risk are marked in the document and grouped by category, so the risk is visible in time to act.

The owner sees it early enough to renegotiate, not just note it.

5

The contract answers questions

The contract answers questions.
The Contract Agent answers any contract question and links straight to the source clause.

Getting an answer takes seconds, and contracts become comparable.

Contract review in procurement
No one has to remember every detail.
The agents do.
And what needs a review comes with a recommendation.

How the results show up in practice

Timeline transparency

Dashboard, timeline and urgency filter show what expires when, and reminders run off the extracted dates.

FAQ

Everything You Need to
Know About Mercanis

What is contract management software?
Contract management software keeps contracts in one place and makes what is inside them usable: parties, dates, values, payment terms and obligations can be searched and filtered instead of read page by page. Mercanis contract management software is built for procurement: it gives one overview of every contract, and a contract's terms also reach sourcing and buying.
What can Mercanis do with a contract?
Agents read the contract on upload, turn the terms into data that can be searched and filtered, flag clauses that carry risk, track every deadline, and answer questions about what the contract says, with a link to the clause behind each answer.
How is AI-extracted contract data checked?
In Mercanis every extracted value links back to the passage it came from, so it can be checked and confirmed.
How does Mercanis identify contract risks?
Every contract is checked against a set of risk parameters, for example data protection, cybersecurity and anti-bribery. Each finding says what is missing, not only that something is off, and comes with a recommendation. It is flagged for human review, so someone can decide whether to accept it, renegotiate, or pass it to legal.
How does contract management software connect to what actually gets bought?
A negotiated price only saves money if it is used. Requests are checked against the framework agreements in Mercanis before they become orders, so the order carries the terms from the contract.
Can Mercanis connect to our e-signature tool?
Yes. Signing runs through providers such as DocuSign or Adobe Sign, connected directly to contract management in Mercanis.
Can existing contracts be migrated from shared drives?
Yes. Existing contracts can be uploaded and read the same way as new ones, so an old portfolio becomes searchable without anyone entering it by hand.
