“Why did we choose this supplier?”
If the answer disappears when the buyer leaves the project, part of the organization’s procurement knowledge leaves with them.
Supplier data has a shelf life. Capacity, pricing, lead times, quality and communication can all change faster than the supplier profile sitting in the system.
Procurement flexibility comes from having real options. Alternative suppliers matter, but so do current information, visible trade offs and enough context to decide quickly.
If your procurement process still depends on one person remembering to follow up, that's not a process. That's a single point of failure with a job title.
Thank you to National Advanced Mobility Consortium (NAMC) and Velocity for creating the opportunity to connect, share ideas, and introduce @DataISource to the room.
And thank you, @UrecheCornel, for representing @DataISource and giving people a closer look at what we’re building.
Most of the pain here will not land on the companies that buy rare earths directly. It lands two or three tiers down, on the people who have no idea a sub supplier of theirs depends on a single Chinese shipment until the line stops. Now is a good week to ask your suppliers what their own inputs depend on.
Collaboration in procurement is not about adding more people to the process.
It is about involving the right people early enough for their input to still change the outcome.
The more useful AI becomes, the more context we give it.
Documents. Decisions. Supplier knowledge. Internal conversations.
That makes one question increasingly important: where does that context go?
We explore it in Kept Within. x.com/i/article/2094…
We’re pleased to share that DataISource is now a member of the NVIDIA Inception program.
For DataISource, this marks another meaningful step as we continue developing DataProcur and applying AI to real-world procurement challenges.
Our roadmap extends beyond procurement, with expansion, operations, strategy and sales among the areas we plan to address next.
