Agentic AI for procurement teams in manufacturing
A typical BOM-line sourcing event takes 3โ10 business days and bounces across email, spreadsheets, ERP, and approvers' inboxes โ while the production schedule waits.
Engineering drops a part number and qty. Someone re-types it into a tracker. Half the time the spec, tolerance, or required-by date is missing โ back to engineering.
Pull the approved-vendor list from a spreadsheet. Email RFQs to three suppliers. Chase. Pray the lead time fits the production window.
Quotes arrive in three formats with different incoterms and MOQs. Normalize in Excel. Draft PO in the ERP. Walk it to the approver. Production waits.
Cost: 60โ80% of the cycle is coordination, not decision-making โ and every day lost is a day closer to a line stoppage.
Sidrun Source executes the seven stages your team already knows โ automated where it's safe, paused where you must decide.
Need parsing, vendor discovery, RFQ dispatch, quote normalization, order tracking, audit logging.
Vendor shortlist confirmation, quote ranking, PO draft. Buyer reviews and edits before progressing.
Final PO approval above policy threshold. Anomaly clarification. Vendor selection overrides.
No customer documents, queries, or supplier data are used to train models. Ever.
SaaS, private cloud, or on-premise. Pick the model that matches your IT and compliance posture.
Every agent decision cites the document or data it came from. No hallucinated suppliers, no fabricated terms.
Timestamped log of every agent action and human approval. Exportable per record.
