With Umbiko
Information is spread across PDFs, Excel files, datasheets and tender documents.
Documents are centrally analysed and turned into a structured overview.
Differences from the original request are not always immediately visible.
Deviations, exceptions and missing information become visible much earlier.
Quotes are compared manually, often in Excel.
Umbiko helps compare supplier quotes faster and more consistently.
Certifications, tolerances, warranties and product specifications can easily be overlooked.
Important technical criteria are identified and included in the analysis.
Risks are sometimes discovered late, for example in conditions, scope or delivery details.
Potential risks are flagged earlier, so teams can act before they become a problem.
Engineering, legal, finance and operations often work from separate notes or different document versions.
Teams work from one shared overview with clearly supported findings.
It is difficult to quickly determine which supplier is the best technical and commercial fit.
Suppliers are compared clearly on requirements, conditions, risks and deviations.
Conclusions are often based on manual interpretation and are difficult to trace back.
Findings are linked back to the original source in the document.
A lot of time is lost searching, checking, copying and aligning internally.
More time remains for evaluation, negotiation and decision-making.
