Regulated categories

Regulated categories

In a regulated category a supplier is not a candidate until it holds the right certificate. It reads the qualification off the supplier's own evidence, records what it found and where, and screens the shortlist against the gates your part family requires

  • Screened against the certifications your part family requires
  • Every certificate keeps the link and the date it was read
  • A supplier missing a gate is flagged for your call, never hidden

Qualifications it looks for

  • IATF 16949Automotive
  • ISO 9001Quality management
  • AS9100Aerospace and defence
  • ISO 13485Medical devices
  • ISO 14001Environmental
  • ISO 45001Health and safety
  • ISO 27001Information security
  • TISAXAutomotive information security

Plus whatever else your category gates on. Tell it the requirement and it screens against that instead.

When you are ready

Connected to your workforce

When Supplier Matching identifies a part without a suitable approved supplier, Scouting searches for alternatives using the same part requirements. Your approved shortlist passes to RFQ Dispatch.

  • Uses the part requirements from Supplier Matching
  • Returns approved supplier records to your SRM
  • Passes the shortlist to RFQ Dispatch
