The Tail Spend Platform: Inside Axiom's MarketPlace

S2P systems were built for strategic spend. They're good at it. But tail spend isn't one problem - it's four. 

And trying to force it through a system designed for something else creates the exact behaviour procurement is trying to prevent: buyers going off-platform to find what they need, quickly, without oversight.

Axiom was built from the ground up as a complete enterprise tail spend platform. At the centre of it is the MarketPlace - a single destination for products and services across every category. Category agnostic by design, it gives buyers a familiar, intuitive route to get what they need, and it gives procurement the visibility and control to make sure that route is the right one.

Axi, Axiom's AI agent, guides buyers through the MarketPlace - surfacing the right products and services, applying relevant rules, and keeping purchasing on-policy. When the right option is easy to find, buyers don't need to look elsewhere.

Watch Catrin Walker, Regional Operations Manager, in this 30-minute session demonstrate how the MarketPlace works and why it's a fundamentally different answer to tail spend than legacy S2P systems can offer.

You’ll walk away knowing:

• Why tail spend spans four distinct areas that S2P systems were never designed to address
• How the Buyer Portal & Procurement Control Centre work together across one connected MarketPlace
• The way basket optimisation, procurement tags and rules keep purchasing on-policy without creating friction for the buyer
• How Axi guides buyers to the right product or service, every time, across every category - eliminating the need to go off-platform
