Conduent Expands Finance and Procurement Capabilities with Fairmarkit's AI-Powered Technologies including GenAI

The combination of Conduent's and Fairmarkit's industry expertise and technology delivers real savings and revolutionizes the sourcing process.

Conduent Incorporated (NASDAQ:CNDT), a global technology-driven business solutions and services provider, today announced a strategic collaboration with Fairmarkit, an autonomous AI-powered sourcing platform designed to optimize procurement workflows from RFP to award for all levels of spend. The Fairmarkit sourcing technology will complement Conduent's FastCap® Finance Analytics, which improves financial performance by identifying cost-saving opportunities within procurement and spend management.

Fairmarkit Brings World-Class AI Tools to Drive More Powerful Results

Fairmarkit's platform utilizes the most impactful AI technologies to enable robust procurement support:

• Streamline Procurement Processes – Support full range of workflow processes from sourcing strategic suppliers to managing RFP responses and awards to drive greater efficiency and visibility across suppliers.
• Enhance Sourcing Accuracy – Use AI-driven insights to refine purchasing decisions.
• Expand Cost-Saving Opportunities – Offer real-time data analytics to optimize spend management.

The data from FastCap, a finance analytics tool that prevents and recovers payment errors, can identify opportunities to improve tail spend. Combining the capabilities of FastCap and Fairmarkit automates the capture of those tail spend opportunities to accelerate savings.

By preventing or recovering overpayments, FastCap identified over $800 million of savings and recoveries, representing up to 10% of addressable spend, since 2021. Through spend compliance, automated bidding and enhanced supply options, FastCap and Fairmarkit together could drive 3-6% more in savings for companies.

"FastCap has resulted in significant savings for clients, while helping to drive contract compliance, risk reduction and financial visibility," said Mike McDaniel, Group President of Commercial Solutions at Conduent. "We will continue to expand FastCap's capabilities to solve key client challenges and generate business outcomes. Collaborating with innovative solution partners like Fairmarkit helps our clients further advance their objectives and create stronger financial results."

"We're thrilled to partner with Conduent to bring the power of AI-powered sourcing to a broader range of procurement teams," said Allison Yount, Vice President of Partnerships and Business Development at Fairmarkit. "Conduent's deep expertise in procurement transformation, combined with Fairmarkit's intelligent technology and experience working with the world's leading procurement teams, creates a compelling solution that empowers organizations to optimize their spend, streamline processes, and unlock new value from their sourcing activities."

Conduent's Finance, Accounting and Procurement Solutions—now enhanced by Fairmarkit's capabilities—accelerate cost savings while streamlining procurement processes, empowering organizations to make smarter, data-driven decisions.
