Kavlo
Manufacturing & Supply Chain

Every supplier obligation, surfaced before it costs you.

Pricing tiers, SLAs, and rebate terms sit unread across hundreds of supplier agreements. Kavlo reads them all and surfaces the renewals, rate drift, and risk before they cost you margin.

The problem

In manufacturing, the contract base is the cost base.

Pricing tiers, rebate thresholds, SLAs, and supplier certifications all live in agreements that almost no one reads after signing. Industry research finds manufacturers are 45% less likely than other sectors to have resources devoted to post-award contract monitoring (World Commerce & Contracting Benchmark Report).

Auto-renewals trigger before the notice window, certifications lapse without warning, and off-contract spend slips past approved suppliers.

What you get

One structured read across every supplier and every PO.

EXTRACT

Turn every supplier agreement into structured data.

Connect your procurement document sources once. Kavlo ingests supplier contracts, blanket POs, and SOWs in any format and turns pricing tiers, rebate thresholds, SLAs, certification requirements, and escalation triggers into structured fields.

  • Reads PDF, Word, Excel, scanned images, and email attachments
  • Each field carries a confidence score and a source reference
  • Three metadata layers: what it is, a plain-language summary, and why it was extracted

TRACK

Catch every renewal and notice window in advance.

Kavlo tracks the Notice Date and the End Date on every supplier contract, separating auto-renewals from manual ones. List, calendar, and Gantt timeline views show 30/60/90-day windows so renegotiation happens while leverage is still in hand.

  • 30/60/90-day alerts on both notice and expiration dates
  • Auto-renewal clauses flagged before the notice window closes
  • Renewals grouped by supplier and commodity for consolidated negotiation

See contracted rates against what you actually pay.

Kavlo compares the contracted rate on each agreement to the amount actually invoiced, by supplier and commodity. Rate drift above the contracted price, off-contract spend, and added surcharges surface as soon as the invoice lands.

  • Contracted rate checked against invoiced spend, line by line
  • Rate drift above the contracted price flagged per supplier
  • Off-contract spend and added surcharges surfaced for review

Kavlo supplier contract intelligence across the supply base

In practice

How a VP of Procurement at a parts manufacturer uses Kavlo.

The company sources components from dozens of suppliers across several production facilities. Agreements range from spot-buy POs to multi-year strategic partnerships with tiered pricing, volume rebates, and SLA commitments. Margin is leaking somewhere in the supply base, but the contract terms needed to find it are spread across email threads, shared drives, and the ERP, and the team has never had the resources to read them all.

They connect the procurement document repository to Kavlo, and the supplier base is ingested, classified, and extracted into structured data. Vendor 360 surfaces the same commodity billed at rates that vary noticeably across facilities, escalation clauses tied to material indices without matching cap provisions, and invoiced amounts that have crept above contracted rates. The renewals view flags a cluster of agreements approaching their notice windows, several set to auto-renew.

The findings become a clear plan: suppliers to renegotiate, renewals to consolidate before the notice dates pass, off-contract spend to pull back onto approved agreements, and certifications to chase before they lapse. The team works from one structured view across the whole supply base.

Frequently asked questions.

Yes. Kavlo extracts multi-tier pricing, volume rebate thresholds, cost escalation triggers, and conditional pricing as structured fields. Each field carries a confidence score and a source reference, and the values infer where they can, so your procurement team can verify and act on the output directly.

Kavlo tracks the Notice Date and the End Date separately on every contract and distinguishes auto-renewals from manual ones. You get 30/60/90-day alerts in list, calendar, and Gantt timeline views, filtered by facility, commodity, or supplier, so notice windows are caught while leverage is still in hand.

Yes. Kavlo extracts certification requirements, insurance terms, and other obligations from supplier agreements and tracks their expiry alongside renewals. Expiring documents and lapsing certifications surface in advance, so following up with suppliers becomes a tracked task with an owner and a deadline.

Kavlo ingests PDF, Word, Excel, scanned images, and email attachments and auto-classifies document type, so facilities do not need to standardize how they store contracts. Each facility's agreements stay distinct while cross-facility comparison shows where the same commodity carries different terms by location.

Your data runs in a private cloud with full multi-tenant isolation, and Kavlo does not train models on your documents. SOC 2 Type II certification is in progress, and every extraction, workflow action, and approval is recorded in a full audit trail that you can export.
