METIS is an AI-native tail spend management platform from CollectiveSpend, built in Dubai, where the company has worked since 2012. It takes on the long list of small, unplanned purchases that sit outside contracts: the spend procurement teams know matters but have no time to manage one order at a time. A requester describes the need in plain English, by chat, email or a document. METIS turns it into a structured requirement, finds suppliers in a network of more than 17,000 verified suppliers, issues the request for quotation and scores the bids on price, delivery, terms and supplier risk. AI agents negotiate Agent-to-Agent inside limits the client sets. The result goes through the client's own approval chain, and the purchase order is issued with a full audit trail, typically in around 48 hours instead of the usual two to three weeks. Three ways to buy sit on one platform: a catalogue for recurring items, AI sourcing agents for one-off needs, and a Buying Desk of experienced buyers for the exceptions. The managed service can invoice the client as a single vendor, so one-time suppliers never need to be set up in the client's systems. METIS connects by punchout to SAP, SAP Ariba, Oracle, Microsoft, Coupa, Zycus and Ivalua, typically in two to three weeks including testing. It runs on AWS with regional data residency for GCC clients, with SOC 2 certification in progress, and supports live programmes across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait and Oman.
