Case Study: BÜFA achieves faster, more sustainable supplier search with Matchory

BÜFA identifies 10 top suppliers in days with Matchory

BÜFA GmbH & Co. KG, an international chemical company, faced a complex challenge in its procurement process. It needed to efficiently identify new suppliers for a specific chemical product who could meet high quality, sustainability, and logistical standards, moving beyond time-consuming conventional search methods. In a joint research project with Hochschule Mainz, the company turned to the vendor Matchory and its AI-powered supplier search platform to find a valid selection of strategic partners.

Using the Matchory platform, a project team conducted targeted searches and applied filters to quickly generate a longlist of potential suppliers. The solution enabled them to identify 317 global suppliers and narrow these down to a shortlist of nine high-potential ROI matches in just three months. This AI-driven approach by Matchory dramatically reduced the supplier search time from weeks to days, providing BÜFA with data for a more efficient, transparent, and strategic procurement process.
