SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Large supplier bases hide overlapping vendors that could be consolidated for savings and single-source vendors that create supply risk. This Skill cross-walks spend data, category data, and vendor analyses to surface both, producing a prioritized consolidation register with recommended moves. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Consolidation candidate detection: Groups vendors by sub-category and scope overlap, then scores each group on dollar opportunity, operational simplicity, risk delta, and switching effort. - Single-source risk analysis: Flags single-source vendors by spend, Kraljic criticality, geographic concentration, and financial health, with dual-source recommendations. - Decision-grade outputs: Generates an interactive HTML dashboard (Overview, Consolidate, Diversify, Risk overlay, Roadmap tabs), an Excel register, and a one-page executive summary. - Use Case: After a spend analysis reveals 40 logistics vendors, run this Skill to get a ranked plan to consolidate to 12 suppliers with named targets, allocation percentages, timelines, and estimated savings. ## Quick Start Run vendor consolidation across my supplier base in consolidate mode with a 20-30% target reduction and show me the savings opportunities.

Frequently Asked Questions about vendor-consolidation

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find vendor consolidation opportunities in my supplier base?

Run the vendor-consolidation skill with a spend dataset or a prior spend analysis. It groups vendors by sub-category and scope overlap, scores each group on savings, risk, and effort, and outputs a ranked register of recommended consolidation moves.

How to identify single-source supplier risk in procurement?

The skill builds a diversification candidate list scoring each single-source vendor on annual spend, Kraljic criticality, geographic concentration, and financial health. It recommends secondary-source development with qualification plans and cost estimates.

What inputs does vendor consolidation analysis require?

It needs a spend dataset, ideally from a prior spend analysis run, or a pasted vendor list with annual spend by category. Optional flags include category scope, consolidate or diversify mode, and a target supplier-count reduction percentage.

What outputs does a supplier rationalization analysis produce?

It saves three files to a dated folder: an interactive HTML dashboard with Overview, Consolidate, Diversify, Risk overlay, and Roadmap tabs, an Excel consolidation register, and a one-page executive summary in Markdown.

When should I not consolidate suppliers?

Avoid consolidation when it drops supplier count below the category's bid-floor, concentrates spend with a financially weak vendor, or eliminates relationships kept for political reasons. The skill's risk overlay flags these cases for human review before execution.
