TCO Calculator
for Duplicate PO Detection

Duplicate purchase order creation is a frequent challenge for enterprises, leading to redundant commitments, supplier confusion, and procurement inefficiencies. Legacy OCR systems can extract PO data but cannot compare new entries against historical records to detect duplicates. This forces procurement teams to manually verify submissions, increasing operational overhead and risk of redundant orders.

AI-powered duplicate PO detection automates the identification of redundant purchase orders by matching extracted details such as PO number, vendor, date, and line items against historical records. This ensures procurement accuracy, prevents supplier disputes, and reduces wasted effort.

This total cost of ownership calculator helps you evaluate the true ROI of the category using modern AI powered alternatives over traditional OCR based solutions.

TCO with Existing Solution

Legacy OCR solutions achieve 80% accuracy and cannot reliably detect duplicates in purchase order records. Procurement teams must manually review and reconcile submissions, which increases cycle times, costs, and the likelihood of redundant orders slipping through.

TCO with AI-based Solution

Modern AI leveraging OCR, NLP, and pattern recognition achieves 92% accuracy ±2% in detecting duplicate purchase orders. While this substantially reduces manual workload, AI cannot always identify near-duplicates caused by vendor or system errors, requiring verification before final approvals.
