Sourcing and tenders

Sourcing and tenders

Agents build the tender from your intake requirements, including scoring criteria and compliance rules.

Agents distribute it, run the question and answer thread, and collect every response to deadline.

Agents score technical compliance, benchmark pricing and flag risk across all proposals, then hand your team a ranked shortlist.

Purchase orders and expediting

Agents place orders against the agreed contract and terms.

Agents chase every open order and reschedule it as soon as a date moves, before the slip becomes a shortage.

Agents confirm receipt against the promised date and resolve any discrepancy on arrival.

Supplier performance and contracts

Supplier performance and contracts

Agents keep delivery, quality, cost and compliance current per supplier rather than per quarterly review.

Agents benchmark contracted rates against market indices and flag every rate that has fallen out of line with the market.

Agents read contracts for renewal and escalation dates, and raise them ahead of the deadline.

Frequently asked questions

Do agents place orders themselves, or propose them?

They place them, within the limits set by your team. An order within your thresholds is placed against the agreed contract and terms. An order above a threshold is escalated to a named owner with the reasoning attached, and nothing is placed without that person's decision.

What happens when a supplier moves a date?

The agent reschedules the order, resets the date the rest of the operation is working to and chases the supplier for a new confirmation. The change is logged with the supplier's message as its input, so you see the slip before it costs you cover.

How long is it until the first operation is live?

The first operation goes live in weeks, on your own data. You start with one lane, prove it against your own numbers, then add the next.
