Stop Procurement Fraud.
Recover Every Dollar.
ProfitGuard connects natively to SAP Ariba to detect procurement fraud, prevent contract leakage, and eliminate duplicate payments — protecting an average of $14M annually for enterprises with $1B+ spend.
The $4.7 Trillion Procurement Problem
Global enterprises lose 3-5% of annual procurement spend to fraud, contract leakage, and maverick spending. For a $1B company, that is $30M-$50M annually — most of it undetected.
ProfitGuard eliminates this gap.
Our AI monitors 100% of SAP Ariba transactions in real time — not periodic samples — catching fraud, leakage, and waste that manual reviews and native Ariba controls miss entirely.
Six Layers of Procurement Protection
Each module is a specialized AI engine trained on millions of procurement transactions to detect specific fraud patterns with enterprise-grade accuracy.
Duplicate Payment Detection
Multi-algorithm AI that catches duplicate payments across vendors, subsidiaries, and time periods — including partial duplicates and cross-currency matches that traditional systems miss.
- Cross-entity duplicate detection across 100+ subsidiaries
- Fuzzy matching for partial duplicates and near-matches
- Multi-currency duplicate identification
- Historical pattern analysis for recurring duplicates
- Automated recovery workflow initiation
Contract Leakage Prevention
Real-time monitoring of every purchase against negotiated contract terms. Detects off-contract spending, unauthorized price increases, and volume commitment shortfalls.
- Real-time price variance from contracted terms
- Volume commitment tracking and alerts
- Unauthorized price escalation detection
- Contract term expiration monitoring
- Automatic contract compliance scoring per vendor
Maverick Spend Detection
AI identifies off-catalog purchasing, non-preferred vendor usage, and policy violations that erode negotiated savings and expose the organization to risk.
- Off-catalog and off-contract purchase identification
- Non-preferred vendor spend tracking
- P-card policy violation detection
- Split purchase order detection (threshold avoidance)
- Approval bypass and workflow circumvention alerts
Vendor Fraud Intelligence
Advanced entity analytics that detect fictitious vendors, shell companies, employee-vendor collusion, and bid rigging patterns across your entire vendor base.
- Fictitious vendor and shell company detection
- Employee-vendor relationship analysis
- Bid rigging and collusion pattern recognition

Pricing & Discount Fraud
Detects unauthorized discounts, margin-eroding pricing conditions, and rebate manipulation that silently drain profitability across sales and procurement.
- Unauthorized discount and override detection
- Pricing condition manipulation identification
- Volume rebate calculation validation
- Retroactive price change monitoring
- Margin impact analysis per transaction
Three-Way Match Intelligence
AI-powered PO/Receipt/Invoice reconciliation that catches quantity variances, price discrepancies, and timing anomalies across millions of transactions.
- Automated PO-Receipt-Invoice matching at scale
- Quantity variance detection and tolerance management
- Price discrepancy identification with root cause
