  1. 01 The case 0:00

    A U.S. component maker serving armor and tactical companies. Strong product, small team, no sales department. Their question: which fifty companies are worth a sample kit?

  2. 02 The result 0:15

    They filtered the ArmorList catalog by company type, product category and location, and chose fifty. A quarter replied. Ten asked for quotes. Two deals have closed, and more are in progress.

  3. 03 The insight 0:27

    The product held up in front of buyers. The limit was capacity: one team selling, quoting and running a factory. That is where IntelAlytic works alongside: Procurement Ready, so buyers can clear you without you in the room; proof you are in good standing and can deliver what a buyer needs, from Berry compliance to set-asides and HUBZone status; and business development that keeps moving every day.

  4. 04 The same search, every direction 0:51

    The same search works in every direction. Manufacturers find materials suppliers: fifty of them, and 544 materials. Programs find dealers and distributors: more than three hundred. Suppliers find buyers: SAM.gov notices and forty-seven contract vehicles, and buyers find you by your compliance, from ISO 9001 to country of origin.
