Vendor Tracker
Features

Everything you need to manage your vendor contracts

Appaca makes it easy for your procurement team to build an AI-powered internal tool that keeps every contract, renewal date, and performance record in one place - so renewals never blindside you again.

Teach AI your vendor policies

Teach AI your vendor policies

Upload your vendor evaluation criteria, contract templates, and procurement guidelines to the knowledge base so the Appaca agent and your tracker surface insights that reflect how your team manages supplier relationships.

Keep every contract in one place

Keep every contract in one place

Appaca workspace comes with a secured built-in database and storage, so your vendor profiles, contract files, renewal dates, and performance history live right inside your tool. No more hunting across email threads, shared drives, or spreadsheets.

AI that extracts contract terms

AI that extracts contract terms

Upload a contract file and AI automatically extracts the key terms - annual value, renewal date, notice period, and payment terms - so you spend minutes setting up a new vendor, not hours reading fine print.

Never miss a renewal deadline

Never miss a renewal deadline

Set automated alerts to notify your team before notice periods expire - like sending a Slack message 90 days, 30 days, and 7 days before a contract renews - so you always have time to review, renegotiate, or cancel.

Share with the procurement team

Share with the procurement team

Works with your procurement stack

Securely connect Appaca workspace to the tools your team already uses - Slack, email, and any service with an API or webhook - so renewal alerts and contract updates reach your team where they already work.

Offerings

Vendor tracker built on a secured platform your procurement team can trust

Your vendor tracker comes with the platform essentials - secure access, contract storage, automations, and controls - so your team can focus on managing relationships, not chasing paperwork.

Secure team sign-in

Every team member signs in with their own account. Your contracts, spend data, and vendor notes are only ever seen by your team.

Advanced permissions

Decide who sees what. Contract owners manage their own vendors while procurement leads see the full portfolio and control who can access sensitive spend data.

Scheduler & automations

Send renewal alerts to Slack, notify owners before notice periods expire, and put contract review reminders on autopilot - so nothing renews by accident.

Built-in contract database

Vendor profiles, renewal dates, contract files, and performance history live in a secure database inside your tool. No spreadsheets, no third-party setup.

Enterprise-grade security

Your contract data and spend figures are encrypted, protected, and under your control - never shared outside your workspace.

Manage from anywhere

The tool lives in the browser, so your team can check contracts and track renewals from the office, home, or on the road.

File & image storage

Attach contract PDFs, amendments, and supporting documents to the vendor they belong to - so every renewal decision has its full paper trail in one place.

Usage tracking

See how your team actually uses the tool - which contracts get reviewed and where the renewal process stalls - so every procurement cycle runs smoother.

Fit and setup

Is a custom vendor tracker the right fit?

Appaca works best for operations and procurement teams that need a shared workflow built around their own data, rules, and permissions.

Use Appaca when

  • Your process differs from the fixed workflow in an off-the-shelf tool.
  • The team needs one database, clear permissions, and a shared view of each request or record.
  • You want to adjust fields, logic, and AI as the process changes.

Choose specialist software when

  • You need certified, category-specific controls that cannot be configured safely.
  • A vendor already provides the exact workflow and integrations you need out of the box.
  • Your team does not want to own setup, testing, or ongoing workflow changes.

What you configure before rollout

  1. Step 1

    Replace the sample records and fields with your real process.

  2. Step 2

    Set who can view, edit, approve, and administer the app.

  3. Step 3

    Connect the data sources and notifications your team uses.

  4. Step 4

    Test the workflow with a small group before wider rollout.

Appaca includes a 7-day trial. Review the working example before you start, then use the trial to test the workflow with your own process.

FAQs

What is a vendor tracker?

It's an internal tool that keeps all your vendor contracts, renewal dates, and spend in one place. You see which contracts are coming up for renewal, which are within their notice period, and how much you're spending by category - with automated alerts before anything renews by surprise.

Do I need to know how to code to build this?

No. Appaca is an AI workspace - you describe what your procurement team needs and the Appaca agent builds the tool for you, complete with a built-in database, team access, and automations. No coding or deployment required.

How does the AI extract contract terms?

You upload a contract file when adding a new vendor and the AI reads it to extract the key terms - annual value, renewal date, notice period, and payment terms. You can review and edit the extracted details before saving.

Can it alert us before contracts auto-renew?

Yes. You set up automated alerts that fire before notice periods expire - for example, a Slack message to the contract owner 90 days, 30 days, and 7 days before a renewal date. Your team always has time to review, renegotiate, or cancel.

Where is our contract data stored?

In a secure database built into your Appaca workspace. Your vendor profiles, contract files, renewal dates, and performance notes live right inside the tool - encrypted, protected, and only visible to the team members you invite.

Can my whole procurement team use the same tracker?

Yes. Invite your team to the workspace so everyone tracks vendors from the same source of truth. Each contract owner manages their own portfolio, and advanced permissions let you control who sees the full spend picture.

Can it handle vendors across multiple categories?

Yes. Every vendor record has a category field, and the dashboard shows spend and renewals broken down by category - software, logistics, facilities, services, or whatever categories your team uses. Filter and search across the full portfolio at any time.
