And to ensure immediate access to actionable insights, we complete the data upload work for you. Simply forward us up to 10 BOMs and we will handle the rest. You will have immediate access to BOM cost and risk information available to you via our intuitive dashboard suite. Our AI-powered SaaS platform enables smarter data-driven decision making that lowers sourcing costs.
