Defence & national security
Procurement that survives an audit.
Defence programmes do not fail their audits because someone lacked a Kanban board. They fail because the trail runs cold at a system boundary — the supplier record lives in one tool, the evaluation in another, the licence determination in a spreadsheet, and nothing reconciles. Planet B2B keeps sourcing, delivery and documentation in one tenancy with one append-only audit trail.
We already do the unglamorous part
We build and maintain GSA Advantage catalogues in production — not as a case study, as ongoing operational work on behalf of a schedule-holding client. That means the parts that usually get discovered late:
TAA compliance screening
Country-of-origin determination applied across a catalogue, with brand-level defaults where the data is thin and exclusions where it cannot be established.
Government pricing
Computing compliant government pricing from supplier price data, rather than hand-maintaining a parallel price list.
ProductFile generation
Producing addition, deletion and full ProductFile submissions against the catalogue as it changes.
Contract baseline reconciliation
Keeping the awarded baseline and the live catalogue reconciled, so what is offered is what was awarded.
If your programme has ever lost a week to a country-of-origin question, this is the part of the pitch worth reading twice.
What matters in this sector
Air-gapped deployment
Fully on-premises installation with Keycloak identity and HSM-backed encryption, for estates where data cannot leave. No outbound telemetry requirement.
Export control in the workflow
Export-control screening, sanctions and denied-party checks, and licence matching run inside the procurement flow — so a blocked party is caught before an RFQ is issued, not during the post-mortem.
Clearance-aware access
Hybrid RBAC/ABAC with clearance levels and scopes, evaluated together with record attributes and data classification tiers.
Tamper-evident audit
An append-only event log across every module and action. Entries are written, never rewritten — the distinction that matters when a bid is challenged.
Sealed-bid evaluation
RFQ → sealed offers → multi-criteria evaluation → contract, with the complete bid audit retained end to end.
Multi-tier supplier visibility
Map the supply base beyond your direct contracts, with sub-tier risk indicators surfaced where the buying decision is actually made.
