Methodology

How we work

Every engagement starts the same way. No assumptions, no generic playbooks.

01

Shadow & Document

We come on-site. Watch your team procure. Document every step, every handoff, every bottleneck. No assumptions.

02

Categorize & Prioritize

Each task labeled: automate now, automate later, or keep human. You get a ranked list with estimated time savings in hours per week.

03

Build to Spec

We build only what's in the approved blueprint. No feature creep. Tested against your real data before going live.

Before Sila vs. After Sila

A typical structural steel procurement cycle for 200 tons to Jubail.

Before — Manual
1Email 5 suppliers individually for quotes
2Wait 3-7 days for responses
3Manually enter quotes into Excel
4Forward comparison to manager via WhatsApp
5Chase approval through 3 levels
6Re-type PO in ERP system
7No record of why this supplier was chosen
Total: 2-3 weeks. Zero audit trail.
After — With Sila
1Describe need in chat: '200 tons structural steel, Jubail, 30 days'
2AI queries all 5 suppliers simultaneously
3Quotes parsed and normalized automatically
4Comparison with scoring sent to approver
5One-click approval with audit trail
6PO auto-generated and synced to ERP
7Full record: why this supplier, at what price, approved by whom
Total: 2-3 days. Complete audit trail.

How it's built

Sila isn't a monolith you adopt. It's an AI layer you add.

Built to integrate, not replace

Sila sits on top of your existing ERP, email, and communication tools. SAP, Oracle, Odoo, Dynamics 365 — we connect via standard APIs. Nothing gets ripped out.

WhatsApp-native. Arabic & English.

Your team already works on WhatsApp. Sila meets them there. Full Arabic language support for chat, document parsing, and supplier communication.

Human-in-the-loop. Always.

AI handles the routine. Humans make the decisions. Every automated action has defined escalation thresholds and approval checkpoints.

Why Now

The timing is right

Four forces converging to make procurement automation inevitable in KSA.

Vision 2030 volume

NEOM, ROSHN, Ma'aden, downstream petrochemicals — these projects are creating procurement volume that legacy processes cannot absorb.

KSA mid-market ignored

SAP Ariba, Coupa, and Zip are built for Fortune 500 teams, English workflows, and 12-month implementations. KSA's industrial base needs something different.

AI is finally capable

Arabic PDF parsing, multi-turn negotiation, bilingual supplier communication — these weren't reliable two years ago. They are now.

Local advantage

A team in Dammam that speaks the language, knows the suppliers, and can show up on-site has a structural advantage no remote vendor can replicate.

Built in Dammam. For Saudi industry.

Two founders. One mission: make procurement work.

“We spent two weeks trying to get aligned quotes from five steel suppliers. With Sila, the same process took two days — and we had a full comparison with audit trail.”
