Order entry and purchasing agents that run inside your network.

A customer PO arrives by email. Someone keys it into the ERP, and someone else checks there's enough material to build it. Trelium's agents do both from servers in your data center or private cloud, and the ERP stays on your internal network.

Why manufacturers keep it in-house.

It usually comes down to the ERP.

  1. 1

    The ERP only answers internal requests

    Many manufacturers run an ERP that only accepts connections from inside the network. Trelium runs on that network, so there's no tunnel or firewall exception to argue for.

  2. 2

    Customers limit where their data goes

    Some customer contracts restrict where POs, part numbers, and pricing can be stored. Self-hosted, that data stays on your servers.

  3. 3

    Upgrades follow your change calendar

    We schedule upgrades with your IT team, so the agents work the same way through a busy production week or a quarter-end close.

Agents sit next to the ERP.

Trelium runs on the same network as your ERP and order inbox. Agents read and write over internal routes, and every write is logged to storage you own.

1Connectors
Talk to your ERP, databases, mail server, and file shares over the internal network. None of them gets exposed to the internet.
2Agent runtime
Does the actual work, from reading a PO attachment to posting the sales order, on servers you operate.
3Data and audit store
Run history, source documents, and audit logs are written to your storage and kept as long as your retention policy says.
4Admin and identity
People sign in through your identity provider. Roles and approvals work the same way they do in Trelium Cloud.

What plant IT will ask about.

Agents write to the ERP your production schedule runs on, so IT wants to know who approved each entry and what started it. Read the security overview.

  • Approvals

    Nothing posts without sign-off

    Require a person to approve a sales order or supplier PO before the agent writes it to the ERP.

  • Identity

    SSO and role-based access

    Sign in through your identity provider and decide who can build agents, run them, and approve their work.

  • Audit

    Every entry traced to its PO

    Each ERP entry is logged with the PO or request that started it, what the agent decided, and who approved it.

  • Data location

    Data stays in your perimeter

    Customer POs, part numbers, and pricing stay on servers you control.

  • Model training

    Never used to train AI

    Nothing processed through Trelium, including customer POs and pricing, is used to train, fine-tune, or improve any model.

Three places to run it.

It usually comes down to one question: can this data leave your network? If not, self-host. If it can, Trelium Cloud means there is nothing to install.

What your IT team will need.

This is the checklist our engineers go through with you during scoping, before anything gets installed.

Infrastructure
Servers in your data center or private cloud. How many depends on how many agents you plan to run, so we size it together.
Storage
Persistent storage for run history, source documents, and audit logs.
Network access
Internal routes from Trelium to each system an agent works in: your ERP, mail server, file shares, and anything else in scope.
Model access
A model endpoint your security team has approved. If you don't have one yet, we'll go through the options against your data policies.
Identity
A SAML identity provider, such as Okta, Google Workspace, or Microsoft Entra.
Your team
Someone from IT to own the install and upgrades, and one person who owns each workflow you automate.

Questions from manufacturing IT.

  • Trelium works with ERPs like SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, and Microsoft Dynamics. Where an ERP has an API, Trelium connects to it directly. Where it doesn't, a browser agent works through the approved web interface instead.

  • No. Trelium runs on the same network as the ERP and reaches it over internal routes.

  • No. Trelium works on the business side: the order inbox, the ERP, file shares, and supplier portals.

  • The agent stops and sends it to a person with the problem called out, such as a part number that isn't in the ERP or a price that doesn't match the contract.

  • On your servers. POs, part numbers, pricing, run history, and audit logs stay in your data center or private cloud.

  • No. Upgrades are scheduled with your IT team on your change calendar and are never pushed automatically.

  • No. Nothing processed through Trelium, including customer POs, part numbers, and pricing, is used to train, fine-tune, or improve any AI model, by Trelium or any third party.
