About SCMMAX
Procurement intelligencefor the people whorun it every day.
SCMMAX is a procurement intelligence company. We build AI that gives enterprise procurement teams the market knowledge, supplier intelligence, and analytical depth that only the best-resourced organisations previously had access to.❝We negotiate without knowing what the material should actually cost.
Apollo builds bottom-up should-cost models for every direct material — updated continuously as commodity markets move — so your buyers walk into every negotiation knowing the number before the supplier does.
❝Our spend data is too dirty to trust for any real analysis.
Apollo's first act is cleaning your ERP data — deduplicating material records, resolving supplier names, enriching thin descriptions — so every recommendation it makes is built on a foundation you can defend.
❝By the time we act on a market signal, the window has already closed.
Apollo monitors your categories, your suppliers, and commodity markets continuously — surfacing buying opportunities, price alerts, and risk signals before your team would have found them manually.
About SCMMAX
The procurement gapis a solvable problem.
Most enterprise procurement teams are managing hundreds of millions — sometimes billions — of dollars in direct spend with tools that were built to manage process, not create intelligence. They track purchase orders. They route approvals. They store contracts. But they don't help buyers understand what a material should cost, when to buy, which suppliers are at risk, or where the best savings opportunities are hiding.The result is that procurement decisions — which directly affect company margins — are made on instinct, habit, and incomplete information. The market intelligence that would change these decisions exists. It's just scattered, unstructured, and inaccessible at the speed and scale procurement teams need it.SCMMAX was built to close that gap. Apollo is the intelligence layer that sits alongside your existing ERP and procurement systems, reading your data, understanding your context, and surfacing the decisions that matter — before the window closes.
What We Believe
01Domain depth makes AI actually usefulGeneral AI applied to procurement produces generic output. Apollo is built by people who understand procurement — which means the recommendations are specific, defensible, and actionable.
02Your data belongs to you — full stopEnterprise procurement data is commercially sensitive. Apollo runs inside your environment. Your spend data never leaves your infrastructure, never trains a shared model, and is never accessible to us.
03Speed to value is a design principleEnterprise software implementations that take 18 months are not solving the problem — they are the problem. Apollo goes live in 60–90 days. The first category scan typically surfaces 3–8% cost reduction within 90 days of go-live.
The Problem We're Solving
What enterprise procurementis missing right now.
SCMMAX is a procurement intelligence company. We build AI that gives enterprise procurement teams the market knowledge, supplier intelligence, and analytical depth that only the best-resourced organisations previously had access to.No market intelligence at the point of decisionBuyers many a time end up negotiating without knowing what a material actually costs to produce, what commodity markets are doing, or whether the supplier's price increase is justified.
Spend data that can't be trustedDuplicate material records, inconsistent supplier names, and fragmented category data make it impossible to understand what's actually being spent and with whom.
Decisions made too slowlyMarket windows open and close in days. By the time a buying recommendation reaches a decision maker, the opportunity has passed or the risk has already materialised.
⬇️Apollo is built to close each of these gaps — working alongside your existing systems, not replacing them.⬇️
Intelligence at the point of decisionShould-cost models, price forecasts, and negotiation playbooks generated automatically — before every supplier meeting, every renewal, every buying decision.
Clean, AI-interpretable dataApollo's data agents deduplicate, enrich, and standardise your material and supplier master data — creating the foundation every other agent depends on.
Decisions in hours, not weeksApollo monitors your spend, your markets, and your supply base continuously — surfacing alerts, opportunities, and recommendations as they emerge, not after the fact.
How We Work

No rip-and-replaceApollo connects to SAP, Oracle, Coupa, Ariba, and other ERP and procurement systems via secure APIs. Your existing stack stays. Apollo adds intelligence to it — not a replacement workflow on top of it.
Your environment, alwaysApollo runs inside your infrastructure — on-premise or your private cloud. No spend data is sent to external servers. No models are trained on your information. Your data is yours.
Forward Deployed EngineersEvery Apollo deployment is supported by a Forward Deployed Engineer — an experienced procurement professional embedded with your team to configure Apollo, enable your buyers, and ensure the platform delivers real value from day one.
Measurable value, monthlyEvery Apollo customer receives a monthly value report — savings identified, decisions supported, and efficiency gains documented. We don't ask you to take the ROI on faith. We prove it.
