AI Deep Search — Supplier Discovery Engine

SupplyHub

Cutting sourcing time from 3 weeks to 2 hours with agent-powered supplier intelligence.

Overview

Project Overview

SupplyHub, a leading procurement platform serving Fortune 500 enterprises, needed to transform their legacy supplier discovery process. Their existing workflow relied on manual database searches, industry directories, and lengthy RFI cycles that took an average of 3 weeks per sourcing event.

Agiliztech built an agent-powered supplier discovery engine that scans global data sources, validates vendor credentials, and surfaces qualified matches instantly — reducing sourcing time from 3 weeks to just 2 hours.

The Challenge

What problems needed solving?

1

Manual Sourcing Bottleneck

Procurement teams spent 60+ hours per sourcing event manually searching databases, trade directories, and industry portals to identify potential suppliers.

2

Inconsistent Vendor Qualification

Vendor vetting was subjective and inconsistent, relying on individual analyst judgment rather than standardized multi-dimensional evaluation criteria.

3

Fragmented Data Sources

Supplier intelligence was scattered across 15+ disconnected platforms, making it impossible to get a unified view of vendor capabilities and risk profiles.

4

Slow Time-to-Contract

The end-to-end cycle from requirement definition to vendor shortlist averaged 21 days, causing missed market opportunities and inflated costs.

The Solution

2

Automated Vendor Scoring Engine

3
