What does Procurement Policy Advisor do?
Procurement Policy Advisor is a production AI agent in the procurement section of the Leverge agent store, built for the sourcing management process. Answer a buyer's policy question from your own procurement policy, with every statement traced to the clause it came from — and hand over to a person when the policy does not actually settle it. It is triggered by an incoming message, works through 3 steps and returns 4 outputs, including what is being asked.
What it needs
-
The question
As it arrived. There is no mailbox connector in this PoC.
-
Answering settings
What it does
- Searching your procurement policy
- Working out whether the policy settles this
- Deciding whether to answer or hand over
What you get back

- What the policy says
- Reply

After each run it asks: “Was this the right answer?”
When it runs
Triggered by an incoming message — Policy question from a buyer or requester.
Oversight
Runs under scoped, least-privilege credentials with every action written to an audit log. Anything that moves money, alters a contract or reaches a customer requires human approval before it executes.

Sourcing, suppliers, contracts, purchase orders and the paperwork between them
-
RFQ Broadcast
Work out which of your suppliers should receive this RFQ and draft the covering email for each — with every draft held for approval and the excluded suppliers listed with a reason.
-
RFQ Creation
Turn an informal purchase request into a publishable RFQ — requirements structured, missing detail named before it reaches suppliers, and the document built from your own approved format.
-
RFQ Response Evaluation
Score supplier quotes against weighted criteria you set, with a comparison table showing where each one won or lost.
-
RFQ Response Intake
Turn the responses that have arrived into an organised bid packet — which supplier sent what, which documents the RFQ asked for and never came, and which files cannot be read at all.
-
RFQ Response Screening
Put every supplier response through the RFQ's own mandatory requirements before anyone scores it — so a non-compliant bid is stopped at the gate rather than argued about in committee.
-
RFQ Screening Compiler
Score every compliant response against the same weighted criteria and compile the result into one comparison sheet — with the export payload an evaluation record can be built from.
Next Step
Deploy Procurement Policy Advisor, or adapt it
It runs as-is against the inputs above. Most deployments diverge — a different source system, a different tolerance, a different approval path. A 30-minute technical call establishes which.
