Overview
GEP combines procurement and supply-chain software with strategy consulting and managed services, with offices in the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Africa and the Middle East[6]. Its software, previously marketed as GEP SMART, is now presented as GEP Quantum Intelligence (Qi), an AI-native source-to-pay platform covering intake and orchestration, sourcing, contract management, supplier management, category and spend management, procure-to-pay, third-party risk management, ESG tracking and supply-chain management[6].
GEP states that Qi launched in 2023, supports more than 100 enterprise deployments and holds SOC 2, HIPAA and ISO 27001 certifications[17]. It reports being named a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Source-to-Pay Suites in 2025 and 2026 and in Forrester’s 2026 Wave for supply-chain platforms, and a Leader in Everest Group assessments of procurement outsourcing services[6]. Combining software with outsourced procurement operations is GEP’s distinguishing feature: a client can buy the platform alone or have GEP run parts of the procurement function on it. The site does not state headquarters, employee or client counts, and pricing is not published.
