The challenge

Pilulka's supplier analytics cycle for ~320 suppliers was mostly manual.

Before Duvo, category managers spent hours moving data between VMS, CRM, BigQuery, XLSX files, Many ERP, PDFs, and email. Errors were often caught late, and missing approvals or evidence could stall without clear escalation. Category managers prepared for supplier meetings without consistent data packs, supplier terms lived in emails and personal spreadsheets, and monthly evaluation/factoring work depended heavily on one analyst.
