Supplier Intelligence – Verified, relevant supplier information
Overview
Supplier Intelligence (SI) is a powerful solution designed to provide organizations with verified, meaningful, real-time information on their suppliers. By aggregating and displaying validated credentials against the Supplier profile and enabling users to filter to find suppliers with specific credentials, Supplier Intelligence supports better decision-making in procurement.
How It Works
Supplier Intelligence is a structured framework that aggregates and organizes verified supplier data into Credentials, which represent specific, validated attributes about a supplier. Each Credential is formed through a combination of a Source and an Indicator:
- Credential – A verified supplier attribute (e.g., Financial Health, Sustainability, Compliance).
- Source – The trusted data provider or system that verifies and supplies information.
- Indicator – The specific status or classification assigned based on the data (e.g., Approved, Monitored, Certified).
For example:
✅ Credential: Compliance
🔗 Source: Rapid Global
📊 Indicator: Non-compliant
Supplier Intelligence Credentials are consumed by Go to Market with Credentials appearing (in full detail) on the supplier profile and icons can be filtered on in Supplier Discovery making it super easy for buyers to find best-fit suppliers.
Key Benefits
