Chemicals sourcing

Source chemicals and equipment on time and under cost.

AI agents handle sourcing and negotiation to bring down cost for your instrumentation, controls, and process equipment BOMs.

Stainless steel chemical tanks, valves, and piping at a processing plant

12% cost reduction on plant equipment

Improve competition and negotiation to drive down cost.

Bring up plants 60% faster

Select, quote, and execute purchases for equipment in half the time.

85% of purchases on auto-pilot

Issue POs to approved sources for chemical inputs without human intervention.

Bring up and maintain chemical plants faster

Process manufacturers face strict regulatory requirements, vendor lock-in on specialized equipment, and massive BOM scope across greenfield and expansion projects.

Sourcing teams miss millions of dollars in cost savings

Sourcing teams don't have the expertise to select compatible alternate sources that could lower costs, reduce risk, or resolve obsolescence issues.

Sourcing teams lack bandwidth and leverage to negotiate

Purchasers lack leverage to negotiate on price for sole-source items, and lack the bandwidth to negotiate on hundreds of instrumentation and control line items.

Sourcing chemicals domestically is complex

Sourcing teams have to chase down vendors to verify Country of Origin and for COAs, SDS, etc for every chemical they source, causing delays.

Control direct and indirect spend and bring up assets faster

Kipo AI automates sourcing across instrumentation, controls, and chemical inputs—from greenfield plant builds through sustainment—so teams can move projects forward faster.

Sourcing for greenfield and expansion projects

Automate sourcing and procurement for pilot- and production-scale plant builds to accelerate bring-up.

Alternate sourcing and negotiation for cost reduction

AI agents find compatible alternates to control/instrumentation parts and negotiate automatically to reduce your spend.

Keep delivery schedules and compliance intact

Verify lead times and ATEX and CSA compliance across the plant BOM, automatically flagging issues before they block production.

Domestic chemical sourcing

Identify domestic chemical suppliers with verified country of origin and certificate of analysis documentation.

Legacy equipment maintenance

Replace legacy parts with form-fit-function alternates to maintain oil and gas and power generation equipment, with integration into CMMS and EAM systems.

Automated routine purchasing

Issue purchase orders for the right Manufacturer Part Numbers automatically to minimize purchasing errors and delays.
