Procurement built for the realities of field operations.

Rio validates field work against contract terms, automates service entry and invoice processing, and handles exceptions before they slow production down.
Keep work moving without losing control of spend.

format_quote"Rio has enabled our highly manual invoice payment process to be fully automated seamlessly from end to end."
"We've been using ConvergentIS Rio to manage invoice processing. It's the only tool we've found that could handle our complex invoices, and we've tried quite a few. We're seeing 99+% accuracy, which exceeded our expectations. It's helped us streamline approvals, reduce delays, and stay on top of billions in invoice volume. The team keeps making it better, and it's become a go-to part of our AP operations. This sustained business process change has allowed our team to shift to other high value-added work while eliminating manual processes, improving overall controls, and reducing audit time for the business."

One digital employee, not five applications
One digital employee across your procurement operation.
Unlike traditional procurement applications that solve one process at a time, Rio works across your SAP landscape. It reads documents, validates transactions, routes approvals, and orchestrates work from supplier request through payment.
01
Automate service entry
Field services generate thousands of service entry sheets that are often validated manually against contracts and purchase orders.
Rio gives suppliers a simple interface to submit service entry sheets while automatically validating rates, quantities, contract terms, and required information. Approvals then route directly through SAP.
02
Eliminate manual invoice processing
Invoices arrive through email, PDFs, spreadsheets, and vendor submissions.
Rio monitors incoming documents, extracts invoice data, performs two-way and three-way matching against SAP, and posts compliant invoices automatically. Exceptions route to the right people with complete context.
03
Turn contracts into operational intelligence
Most energy companies store thousands of executed contracts that are difficult to search and nearly impossible to use operationally.
Rio reads existing contract documents and extracts commercial terms, negotiated pricing, expiry dates, supplier obligations, and insurance requirements. Contract intelligence becomes available in real time across procurement operations.
04
Give suppliers an experience they'll actually use
Many contractors and local suppliers don't have sophisticated procurement systems. Rio's Procurement Gateway gives them one place to work.
Submitting accurate information becomes easier than submitting incorrect information.
Service entry, end to end
From field work to posted document, without the handoffs.
Step 01 · Supplier
Field work is captured
Contractors log hours, day rates, equipment, and tickets in the Procurement Gateway. No SAP license, no spreadsheet template.
Step 02 · Rio
Every line is validated
Rio checks quantities, rates, and terms against the contract and purchase order before anything reaches your buyers.
Step 03 · SAP
The document posts itself
Approved service entry sheets post natively to SAP with the goods receipt and audit trail attached. Exceptions route with full context.
Extend SAP. Don’t replace it (until you’re ready).
Rio was built specifically for SAP enterprises. Whether you run SAP ECC, S/4HANA, Ariba, or Fieldglass, Rio works directly with your existing landscape. Procurement work gets orchestrated without disrupting your ERP investment.

The next category
The future of procurement isn't another application. It's a digital employee.
Most procurement technology asks people to learn another system. Rio works differently. It reads emails, contracts, PDFs, spreadsheets, and supplier documents.
It validates transactions against SAP, coordinates work across procurement, finance, operations, and suppliers, and escalates only what requires human judgment. Your people stay focused on managing suppliers, controlling costs, and supporting operations. Not chasing paperwork.
