Tonkean empowers enterprise procurement and legal operations teams to maximize the value of their AI-powered eSourcing platforms like Archlet by orchestrating and automating critical workflows across the sourcing lifecycle. By connecting Archlet with your broader procurement tech stack, Tonkean helps you eliminate manual tasks, improve data accuracy, and accelerate sourcing outcomes—all while keeping your existing systems and processes intact.
Onboarding new suppliers is often a manual, error-prone process that delays sourcing cycles. With Tonkean, you can automate supplier creation and updates in Archlet based on triggers from other systems, such as Workday, Salesforce, or even email intake. For example, when a new supplier is approved in your ERP or vendor management system, Tonkean can automatically create the supplier record in Archlet, add key contacts, and ensure all relevant data is synchronized across platforms. This reduces manual data entry, improves accuracy, and accelerates time-to-value for sourcing events.
Managing RFPs, RFIs, and bidding rounds requires seamless coordination between procurement, legal, and business stakeholders. Tonkean enables you to automate project and scenario creation in Archlet based on intake forms, Slack or MS Teams requests, or workflow triggers from tools like Jira or Asana. For instance, when a business user submits a sourcing request via a guided intake form, Tonkean can automatically create a new project in Archlet, invite relevant suppliers, and notify stakeholders of the event status in real time via their preferred communication channels.
Keeping supplier contact information up-to-date is critical for effective communication and compliance. Tonkean can orchestrate contact creation and updates for suppliers in Archlet by integrating with your CRM, ERP, or even email inboxes. For example, when a supplier contact is updated in Salesforce, Tonkean ensures the corresponding contact in Archlet is created or updated automatically, maintaining consistency and reducing manual follow-up.
Tonkean brings Archlet’s powerful bid analytics and scenario optimization into your existing procurement workflows. By integrating Archlet with analytics tools like Power BI or Tableau, Tonkean can automatically extract bid data and scenario outcomes, generate actionable reports, and route insights to decision-makers. This enables procurement teams to make faster, data-driven decisions without switching between platforms.
Tonkean’s collaborative intake and request status tracker features ensure all stakeholders have real-time visibility into the status of RFPs, bidding rounds, and supplier onboarding. Automated notifications and status updates can be sent via Slack, MS Teams, or email, keeping everyone aligned and reducing the need for manual check-ins or status meetings.
Tonkean acts as the connective tissue between Archlet and your entire procurement ecosystem. Whether you need to trigger contract review workflows in Ironclad, sync supplier data with SAP Ariba, or automate document management in Box or Google Drive, Tonkean’s composable architecture and no-code process builder make it easy to orchestrate complex, cross-system workflows without custom code.
