What is ProcureSight Plus?

On This Page
This content applies solely to ProcureSight Plus, which must be purchased separately from the Appian base platform. This content was written for Appian 26.6 and may not reflect the interfaces or functionality of other Appian versions.

Introduction

ProcureSight Plus (PS+) is an integrated offering that embeds the power of ProcureSight's AI search directly into your agency's existing Appian acquisition solutions (e.g., Requirements Management). It multiplies the effectiveness of your acquisition workforce, automatically enriching internal workflows with relevant public data.

For example, as a user defines a new requirement, PS+ can instantly surface similar historical procurements to strengthen the acquisition package. By attaching market research directly to internal work packages, agencies create a fully auditable, data-driven context for leadership and compliance teams.

Why choose PS+?

  • Reduce PALT: Minimize research time for users by integrating external intelligence directly into their workflow.
  • Strengthen Compliance: Improve requirements definition and FAR-compliant market research by embedding data directly into the official process.
  • Robust Records: Minimize application switching by connecting auditable research directly to the artifacts within in your primary acquisition system.

Who is PS+ designed for?

PS+ is designed for three primary agency profiles:

  • Appian-Centric Agencies: Government organizations that primarily leverage Appian for their acquisition workflows and want seamless integration of external market intelligence.
  • Procurement Teams Focused on Efficiency: Groups aiming to reduce Procurement Acquisition Lead Time (PALT) by bringing relevant data directly into their working environment.
  • Compliance-Focused Departments: Organizations prioritizing robust, auditable administrative records where external data is embedded directly into official systems.

PS+ employs a modular design that integrates advanced reporting functionalities, high-fidelity data services, and reusable interface components.

  • Summary views for deep dives into specific records.

Advanced Features

Feature Description
Semantic Search Search through millions of records and hundreds of thousands of documents to bring back relevant results, leveraging advanced AI to understand intent rather than just matching keywords.
AI Document Chat Ask natural language questions directly against documents related to past procurements (e.g., SOWs, PWSs) to instantly mine for specific information, requirements, or clauses without reading every page.
Vendor Responsibility Reports Generate comprehensive vendor reports without limitations to support responsibility determinations.
Workflow Integration Connect data services with solutions like Requirements Management (RM) seamlessly to create a cohesive environment for AI-powered workflows.
Agentic Search Use AI to plan, execute, and automate research activities on your behalf.
Collection Insights Interactive dashboards for market intelligence on procurements and vendors.
GSA Vehicle Search Search across GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract documents and Government-wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) award data using natural language requirement descriptions. Results are grouped by Special Item Number (SIN) for MAS and by contract vehicle for GWACs, with AI-generated match reasons, socio-economic breakdowns, and exportable market insights. Save GSA vehicle snapshots directly to collections.
SUM Analytics Analyze agency spend patterns and identify unmanaged spend from a dedicated Spend Dashboard tab and Category Insights tab. Trigger ad-hoc AI evaluation on individual or bulk awards to assess shift potential, and bulk update shift potential statuses (Low, Medium, High) to prioritize contracts for consolidation.
