Sourcing should be a competitive advantage, not a bottleneck, for equipment builders
Machine builders spend valuable time assembling multi-vendor BOMs and chasing vendors in order to deliver machines on time and under budget.
Multi-vendor BOMs live in silos
Master BOMs are assembled manually from manufacturer portals and saved searches, leaving purchasers without a consolidated view of cost, availability, and approved sources.
RFQ cycles consume buyer bandwidth
Chasing quotes across distributors and OEMs for hundreds of line items slows quoting, resulting in lost opportunities, and delays delivery for customers.
Compliance and shortage risk surface late
AVL violations, obsolescence, and availability issues often appear after PO placement, triggering rework and eroding your margin.
Keep machine builds on schedule and on budget
Kipo AI automates part selection, sourcing, and purchasing across your entire BOM.
Consolidated multi-vendor sourcing
Source parts from multiple OEMs in one workflow instead of assembling a master BOM from multiple supplier portals.
Procurement-ready BOMs from the start
Automatically check for availability, compliance, and obsolescence issues before purchase orders go out.
Brand-swaps for cost optimization
Identify cost-saving alternate sources or swap brands (e.g. swap all Siemens motors for ABB ones) with minimal design impact in order to reduce costs or meet customer requirements.
Faster quotes win awards
Submit competitive quotes faster by selecting parts and collecting quotes from your vendors faster than your competitors' purchasing teams.
Automated RFQ and follow-up
Send RFQs, track responses, and compare normalized quotes in one place instead of managing inbox threads across suppliers.
PO execution and supplier follow-up
AI agents integrate with your ERP system to issue purchase orders and follow up with vendors on delivery statuses.
