The Problem: US$68 billion worth of opportunity is lost each year as suppliers struggle to access and transact with enterprise buyers because they are not procurement-ready, even when they are commercially capable.

Buyer Connect Programme

Everything you need to win and retain enterprise clients — from catalog management to punchout and earlier payments.

Buyer Connect Platform

A unified supplier platform that digitizes your catalog into punchout-ready formats, connects you to enterprise procurement systems, and enables you to manage orders, invoices, and buyer relationships — all through one interface.

Digital Catalog Management to Punchout-ready with a click

Upload your product catalog and convert it to punchout-ready format with minimal effort. SourceSage handles the technical complexity — from catalog formatting to procurement system compatibility — so you can focus on selling. Your catalog becomes instantly accessible to enterprise buyers using SAP, Coupa, Ariba, and other major procurement platforms.

Grow Buyer Demand Through Sponsored Offers and Loyalty Programme

Suppliers in Buyer Connect Programme can participate in structured promotional programmes to drive more buyer adoption. Similar to how participating merchants sponsor offers in card programmes, participating suppliers can use marketing dollars to fund discounts, rebates through points accumulated to gain visibility and grow transactional volume with enterprise buyers. And your marketing dollars are only utilized when there is an actual transaction. For Platinum tier, SourceSage may co-fund selected campaigns to accelerate buyer adoption and support strategic supplier growth.

Collect on your Behalf (Earlier Payments)

SourceSage can accelerate your cash flow by collecting payments from enterprise buyers on your behalf. Instead of waiting 60–90 days for corporate payment cycles, get paid earlier while we manage the collection process. This service is especially valuable for suppliers who need improved working capital but want to maintain their buyer relationships.

Tier Specific Perks

Higher engagement tiers unlock enhanced benefits — from faster onboarding and prioritized support to volume-based rewards and preferred payment terms. The more you integrate and sell through SourceSage, the more value you extract from the network.

Supplier FAQs

What is Buyer Connect Programme (BCP)?

Buyer Connect Programme is a comprehensive supplier enablement and enterprise access programme that helps suppliers become procurement-ready, stay compliant, and connect more effectively with enterprise buyers. It brings together onboarding support, catalog and punchout readiness, compliance alignment, and workflow connectivity so suppliers can access, win, and grow recurring business with large organizations.

Will SourceSage take over my customers?

No. You keep your customer relationships and commercial control. SourceSage enables procurement-system connectivity and transaction execution without displacing your brand.

Is this a marketplace like Amazon?

No. SourceSage is not a marketplace. It is a connectivity and execution layer that helps you transact inside enterprise procurement environments.

Do I need technical capability?

Minimal internal technical resources are needed compared with building custom punchout/ERP integrations per customer. SourceSage onboarding workflows are designed for business-friendly activation.

How long does onboarding take?

Onboarding timelines depend on catalog readiness and model choice, but suppliers typically activate much faster than bespoke enterprise integrations.

SourceSage supports payment orchestration aligned with buyer workflow requirements, with clear transaction handling and settlement processes across participating channels.
