Mercanis Agentic AI Procurement Platform

Mercanis is the brand of CdC3 GmbH, a Berlin, Germany company founded in 2020 by Fabian Heinrich and Moritz Weiermann, with a US contact address in Sunnyvale, California. It addresses fragmented procurement in mid-sized and large industrial companies, where sourcing, supplier data and contracts sit in separate tools and spreadsheets.

Its platform builds on one data foundation for intake, sourcing from RFx to supplier selection, supplier relationship management, contract management, risk and compliance and spend analytics. AI agents are embedded in each process step, with the company citing 55 agents deployed, and an AI orchestration layer coordinates agentic workflows. It integrates with ERPs such as SAP and NetSuite and with Slack and Teams, and serves energy and utilities, chemicals and pharma, automotive, consumer goods, manufacturing and construction companies, hosted on servers in Germany.

• Intake: AI-structured purchase requests routed to the right process and approvers.
• Sourcing: RFx events through to supplier selection with AI-assisted evaluation.
• Supplier Management: onboarding, qualification and supplier relationship management on one data foundation.
• Contract Management and Risk: contract repository, risk and compliance monitoring.
• Analytics: spend analysis across categories and suppliers.
• AI Orchestration: 55 deployed agents coordinated in agentic workflows, integrated with SAP, NetSuite, Slack and Teams.

• A Vietnamese energy or utilities company can run RFx events and manage supplier qualification on one platform.
• A chemical or consumer goods manufacturer can consolidate supplier data and monitor compliance risks for export customers.
• A construction group can track contracts and approvals across projects with AI-assisted intake.

• Mercanis reports 50% faster cycle times across sourcing and supplier management.

Tariffs and geopolitical risk are pushing European and Asian manufacturers to diversify suppliers and tighten supplier compliance, while agentic AI is moving into sourcing and supplier management. Vietnamese manufacturers supplying European customers face growing due diligence requirements, and industrial groups in Vietnam need cleaner supplier data and contract control as they scale.
