Supply Chain & Logistics procurement shouldn't feel like detective work.

Supplier contracts auto-renew because there's no time to run competitive bids every cycle.

Different business units source independently — the same supplier quotes different prices to each.

Freight and logistics quotes are in different formats (per kg, per pallet, per container) — comparison is manual.

Qualifying new suppliers takes weeks of back-and-forth; approved vendor lists never grow.
