A governed sourcing process

From unclear project idea to a defensible partner decision.

AI Partner keeps the workflow moving without taking control away from the people accountable for scope, privacy, budget, or supplier selection.

Two intake paths

01

Partner sourcing

Identity protected

02

Comparable proposals

Decision ready

03

The workflow

Six stages, with a human decision at every boundary.

Each stage produces something useful for the next one; there are no hidden handoffs or unexplained status changes.

01

Choose how to start

Use the guided AI builder or book a 30-minute scoping call. Both routes create the same structured brief for your review.

02

Confirm the brief

Review the scope, requirements, timeline, success criteria, budget context, and partner preferences. Nothing is submitted until you approve it.

03

Source confidentially

AI Partner identifies candidates while your company identity and sensitive context remain anonymised.

04

Review partner fit

See why each partner matches the work before deciding who should be invited to propose.

05

Compare proposals

Evaluate architecture, delivery approach, milestones, assumptions, cost, risks, and strengths in one consistent view.

06

Control the introduction

Shortlist the teams worth meeting. Identity is revealed only after your approval, then contracting happens directly with the chosen partner.

Control points

The system cannot silently advance past you.

Submission gates, anonymisation review, match approval, shortlisting, and final selection are explicit actions with an audit trail.

  • You approve the brief before sourcing begins.
  • An admin reviews anonymised proposal content before release.
  • You decide which partner matches may proceed.
  • You control which teams receive an identity-revealing introduction.
  • You select the partner; AI Partner never awards work automatically.
