If you are unfamiliar with the name, Suplari is a leader in AI-automation as part of the “Spend Agility Revolution”. The company provides solutions for organizations to streamline costs through actionable insights provided by AI. This is achieved by working towards creating an efficient flow of financial data. In its announcement, Microsoft points out many organizations host their financial data in silo, which makes accessing data difficult. Making decisions based on financial data is not always easy, even if businesses understand the important of leveraging that information. By using Suplari alongside Microsoft Dynamics 365, the company says customers will have a solution to overcome the limitations. Dynamics 365 will enhance Suplari’s Spend Intelligence Cloud solution, but Microsoft says existing customers will not see any changes to the platform. In other words, all changes will happen behind the scenes.
