🔎 Procurement & sourcing teams

Find the right suppliers before your next RFQ

Stop buying scattered lists. Search government-sourced companies, graded into quality tiers, and build a shortlist of suppliers for further due diligence — in minutes.

The problem

Procurement teams waste days stitching together supplier lists from directories of unknown quality, with no way to tell an established manufacturer from a dormant shell. Lists are stale, unverified, and undifferentiated.

How OneFirmIntel helps

  • Grade every supplier into ★★★ Listed, ★★ Established, or ★ New entrant so you target the right calibre instantly.
  • Filter by industry and city to match your category and lane.
  • See market size live (tier and regional breakdowns) before you commit.
  • Reveal only the companies you need — each one saved to your account forever.

Why supplier discovery is broken

Most procurement teams still build supplier lists the hard way: exporting from a directory of unknown provenance, cross-checking names by hand, and hoping the company on the page still trades. The result is a spreadsheet that mixes a public-market-listed manufacturer with a dormant shell registered last week — with no signal to tell them apart.

That uncertainty is expensive. Sending an RFQ to the wrong tier of supplier wastes weeks, and onboarding a counterparty that turns out to be inactive creates real compliance and delivery risk.

How OneFirmIntel changes the workflow

OneFirmIntel starts from authoritative, government-sourced company records and grades every entity into a quality tier — ★★★ Listed, ★★ Established, or ★ New entrant. Instead of an undifferentiated list, you get a ranked shortlist where the calibre of each supplier is obvious at a glance.

You search by industry and market, see the live size of the supplier base (with a tier and regional breakdown), and preview company names for free. When you find the suppliers you want, you reveal their full records with credits — and they are saved to your account permanently for re-use.

A repeatable sourcing motion

Teams use OneFirmIntel to size a category before an RFQ, to find alternates to an incumbent supplier, and to build region-specific shortlists when a lane or plant location matters. Because every revealed company is kept, the shortlist compounds over time into a private, reusable supplier book.
