Case study 01 / AiForm Procure
Public procurement,
made easier to inspect.
A live South African procurement product for finding public opportunities and understanding supplier readiness.
01 / The problem
The opportunity exists. The path to it is fragmented.
Public procurement notices live across different sources. Suppliers must find relevant work, check whether it is still current, prepare repeated documentation and show that their compliance evidence is ready. When those steps are disconnected, viable opportunities are easier to miss.
02 / What we built
One place to discover opportunities, inspect evidence and move between supplier and buyer workflows.
01 / Discover
A current feed of public tenders and RFQs, linked back to original sources.
02 / Prepare
Supplier profiles bring compliance evidence and readiness information into one place.
03 / Assess
SmartScore makes evidence-based supplier readiness easier to inspect.
04 / Connect
Buyer and supplier workflows support RFQs, matching and quote comparison.

04 / What we're learning
The product is live. The learning is ongoing.
Source fragmentation
Opportunity data is spread across sources with different formats, rhythms and levels of detail.
Data quality
A useful feed needs ongoing checks for stale, cancelled, awarded or duplicated notices.
Supplier readiness
Finding an opportunity is only one step; suppliers also need their compliance evidence ready to inspect.
Collector reliability
The work is operational as much as technical: sources change, so collection and review need continuous attention.
