Master Procurement · For cost control

Your batch, audited.

End-of-month batch of 1,000 lines? 1,000 workers run. Each cross-references the BOQ line, validates progress against site measurements, checks the Schedule of Rates. The industry-consensus 3–5% overbilling becomes a number you reclaim — not absorb.

Who Master Procurement serves

Not just the commercial manager.

The commercial manager is the daily driver. But Master Procurement runs into every moment cost touches the supply chain — QS reconciliations, supplier qualification, category strategy, dispute support. Four roles converge.

Live process · Procurement cascade

You ask Procurement. Five agents react. One audit trail.

An invoice lands in OneDrive. Master Procurement spawns five reconciliation agents in parallel. Match, scan, audit, draft a PO — under two minutes, evidence chain attached. Stock follow-up scheduled at delivery.

Signal

An invoice lands in OneDrive at 14:32.

Any source can fire it: a file dropped in OneDrive / Google Drive / any drive, an email landing in Outlook, a scheduled task firing, or you pressing a button. In this scenario, an event arrives via ONEDRIVE.

Routing

MASTER PROCUREMENT routes.

It classifies the impact across 21 semantic categories and dispatches to the 5 specialized agents concerned. No human in the loop. No meeting scheduled.

5 specialized agents dispatched · 312 ms
Parallel reaction

5 specialized agents. In parallel.

Each agent accesses its own toolset — apps, browsers, MCP connectors, project documents and company knowledge — and produces a structured output. Concurrently, not sequentially.

What changes for a quantity surveyor.

25th of the month. 1,000 invoices land. You point Procurement at the batch. Four hours later — every line verified, 47 anomalies flagged with evidence. The €180K that used to slip through the sample stays inside the firm.

Always on · Always aware

The project remembers itself.

Every invoice. Every delivery slip. Every supplier email. Captured the moment it lands. Connected to the BOQ. Indexed for the recovery you don't know is coming yet.
Project-centric · firm-aware on non-sensitive · sensitive stays gated
47 documents indexed
Ingestion processing 47 documents
Automatic capture

You don't upload. It sees.

Every invoice landing in the ERP. Every supplier portal update. Every delivery slip scanned on site. Every BOQ revision. Captured the instant it arrives. The cost memory grows itself.
Hidden connections

Dots you can't see, joined.

An invoice line. A BOQ row. A delivery slip from three weeks ago. A site measurement from yesterday. A change order. The system sees the chain. Ask anything across the batch — get a sourced answer.
Team-shared

Your QS sees what the controller flagged.

Cost controller sees the same supplier history the buyer worked from. Finance sees what the QS validated. Project director sees the recovery total. Same project memory, different views.
Recovery-ready

The dispute file is built before the dispute.

When the supplier disputes the withhold, the evidence is in your hands. Every overbilling instance documented. Every site measurement timestamped. Every rate cross-referenced to contract. Nothing to reconstruct.
Working into the future · Self-scheduling
Visible in your Outlook · calendar "Vonbuild"

Schedule any task — once or recurring.

The same modal your QS uses to schedule the next end-of-month batch is the engine the agent uses to schedule its own future work — autonomously, no prompt needed. Both surface in the same Outlook "Vonbuild" calendar. The agent re-runs the batch; you review the flags.
Option A · One-time
Option B · Recurring
Live demo · Computer Use on your stack

It runs inside the tools your team already uses.

No new UI for your QS team to learn. Coupa stays Coupa. SAP stays SAP. The agent operates them in the same format your team already audits.

Mechanism · How it works

One batch. N invoices. One verified deliverable.

01
Decompose
The batch breaks into per-line verifications — invoice line, supplier, BOQ row each get their own task.
02
Spawn workers
One worker per invoice line. 1,000-line batch, 1,000 workers. No queueing.
03
Load extensions
Marketplace extensions run — BOQ matcher, Schedule of Rates checker, supplier-anomaly detector, contract cross-reference.
04
Consolidate
Validated batch + per-flag evidence: source invoice, BOQ line, site measurement, recommended action.
Master Procurement is built for parallel volume. The 25th is no longer a week of senior QS time — it's four hours of agent execution and one hour of your review. Every flag carries source invoice, BOQ line, site measurement, recommended action. You manage exceptions, not routine.
Four routes. One promise.

How the work actually gets done.

When the agent picks up a task, it works through these four routes in order. Whatever produces a real, verifiable result, ships. If nothing does, you hear back — never with a made-up number.
01
A tool that already exists

Reach for what's on the shelf.

Your firm has built this workflow before. Or Vonbuild ships it out of the box. The agent picks the right one and runs it — like your engineer reaching for a checklist they trust.
02
A tool the agent builds

Make the missing one.

Need a calculation nobody's done in your firm yet? Hand the agent the norm — EN 13474 for glazing, Eurocode 2 punching shear, RT2020 thermal. It builds the calculator, checks it against known cases, runs your project. Next project, that calculator's already in your firm's library.
03
A tool that talks back

Connect straight through.

Some of your software — Revit, a growing list of cloud tools — lets the agent connect directly, without going through screens. No clicking, no waiting. The cleanest route when it's available.
04
A tool the agent uses like you would

Click through, like an engineer would.

Everything else — Robot, ETABS, Coupa, Procore, your supplier portals. The agent logs in with your licence and works the interface exactly as your engineer or QS would. Same software, same result, same paper trail. None of your hours.
Or — you hear back, with the reason
No made-up numbers
When none of the four routes works, the agent tells you what it tried, where it stopped, and what would unblock it. It does not invent a number to fill the gap. The output on your screen is always a real result from a real tool — or there's no output.
Polycentric model

Procurement alone, or Procurement in concert.

Procurement supports another lead
  • Variation impact assessment
    Engineering / Sales lead · Procurement quantifies sourcing delta
  • Subcontractor termination
    Operations leads · Procurement scopes the replacement
  • Bid response assembly

What this workforce guarantees

I already feed my SAP and my own Excel. How does this connect to my cost ledger without creating a third source of truth?

The cost ledger stays where it already lives. SAP, Oracle, Sage — your ERP holds the books. The workforce reads the invoices, checks them against the BOQ and site measurements, and pushes clean lines back in your existing upload format. Flagged anomalies surface in the Excel batch sheets your QS already opens. No parallel system to reconcile. No third place to keep in sync.
Your cost ledger stays the source of truth
SAP / Oracle / Sage holds the books. The agent verifies and feeds — never replaces, never competes. Master ledger integrity preserved.
Reconciliation in files you already open
Workers populate the Excel batch sheet your team already audits. Flags surface in the rows. No new dashboard to monitor.
Per-flag evidence pack
Every anomaly carries source invoice + BOQ line + site measurement + recommended action. Dispute-ready from line one.
ERP upload-format clean batch
Validated lines push back to SAP / Oracle / Sage in the exact upload schema your AP team already accepts. No new mapping work.

Live demo · Human-in-the-loop

The agent flags. You withhold.

Every Formal Notice, every dispute request, every external send blocks for your explicit approval. The AI never sends on your behalf. Your QS sign-off stays in the audit log. Liability stays with you.
Governance

Your supplier data stays inside your tenant.

Tenant-resident inside your existing Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. ERP credentials stay in your secret store. Supplier negotiation data — the most competitively sensitive thing you handle — never leaves your boundary. Project-scope extensions need DSI approval before tenant-wide promotion.
