Suppliers can publish PunchOut-enabled catalogs in two weeks—no IT needed. Buyers get accurate data for smarter, cost-effective purchases.
Increase your Spend Under Management
Break through Managed Spend Plateaus
Achieve greater spend under management with a higher percentage of suppliers delivering PunchOut-enabled catalogs directly in your procurement platform. This ensures fresher data with up-to-date pricing and assortments. The result? Breaking through spend plateaus, reducing unapproved purchases, and accessing more digital catalogs across your procurement platform.
Accelerate supplier catalog digitization
With our ability to ingest supplier product data in any format—whether dynamic or static, including direct ERP integrations—suppliers can digitize and centralize their product information in Sales Layer, create commerce sites, and connect them to your procurement platform using prebuilt PunchOut tools in under 2 weeks. This simplifies the traditionally complex and IT-dependent process, enabling more suppliers to offer their products through your procurement platform.

Take control of your procurement cycle & supply chain
Gain control over your supplier catalogs
With Sales Layer, specify the exact product attributes, data points, and assets your suppliers must include in their digital catalogs to meet your procurement standards. Whether it’s UNSPSC codes, key product attributes, or high-quality images, you define the requirements. This enables you to ensure that supplier catalogs are aligned with your business needs and support efficient, consistent purchasing decisions.
Monitor price changes and maintain compliance
Gain greater control over pricing and compliance than with traditional PunchOuts. Set up notifications to alert you in real time whenever suppliers make price changes, and approve or block these changes before they are reflected in the catalog. Ensure framework agreements are followed, prevent surprise price hikes, and eliminate manual price checks across supplier catalogs.
Quickly address supply chain risks & identify alternatives
Sales Layer makes it easy to deal with at-risk suppliers, categories, or products. Whether addressing urgent issues, meeting new project requirements, or exploring alternatives, you can quickly vet and onboard new suppliers in just two weeks or update current supplier catalogs in as little as two hours.
