Key Capabilities

What it does

Subcontract Relationship Mapping

Prime-to-subcontractor relationship visualisation across the UK and European public sector. Contract value and CPV code for each subcontracting relationship. Historical relationship tracking showing partnership stability over time.

Social Value Supply Chain Analysis

Identifies prime suppliers who use SME, social enterprise, and supported business subcontractors. Tracks social value supply chain commitments from tender submissions against actual delivery. Alerts when primes with social value subcontracting commitments win new large contracts.

AI-Powered Partner Finder

Capability-based matching using your CPV codes, certifications, and past experience. Geographic proximity scoring for contracts requiring on-site presence. Recommendation engine suggesting prime suppliers most likely to need your services as a subcontractor.

Compliance Tracker

Dashboard tracking your subcontracting commitments against actual delivery. Alerts when you are trending below target in any supply chain category. Documentation generator for subcontracting transparency reports.

How it Works

Simple steps to get started

1

Search for any prime supplier

See their complete subcontracting history and current consortium partners.

2

Use the partner finder

Identify prime suppliers whose subcontracting needs match your capabilities. Filter by CPV code, NUTS region, company size, and framework positions.

3

Monitor social value supply chain opportunities

Track primes who have committed to SME and social enterprise subcontracting but whose current supply chain has gaps.

4

Track your own subcontracting commitments

Monitor your subcontracting plan performance against committed goals with automated alerts and reporting tools.

Why it Matters

The problem this solves

The public sector subcontracting market is largely invisible to suppliers who are not actively networking. Subcontracting Intelligence brings transparency to this ecosystem and helps you identify prime supplier partners whose subcontracting needs match your capabilities.
