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 and distributors in one workflow and build procurement-ready BOMs your team can act on immediately.

Automated RFQ and follow-up

Send RFQs, track responses, and compare normalized quotes in one place instead of managing inbox threads across suppliers.

AVL and compliance enforcement

Filter sources against approved vendor lists, lifecycle status, and regulatory constraints before awards and purchase orders go out.

Real-time availability and lead times

See pricing and stock across suppliers to award lines that meet build schedules and avoid constrained or obsolete parts.

Second-source and cost optimization

Identify alternates and additional suppliers across the BOM to improve leverage and reduce direct spend on every build.
