Not a System of Record. Not a dashboard. A System of Judgment.

Your most valuable procurement data doesn't sit in an ERP — it lives in the heads of your senior buyers. Kodiact continuously infers, encodes, and automates that judgment, turning tacit knowledge into a permanent corporate asset.

2026 State of the Industry: Strategic Category Management

The agentic frontier in direct materials. Benchmarks, buyer-time data, and the playbook leading manufacturers are using to turn category management into a continuously optimized advantage.

The situation

The largest financial lever in manufacturing — still managed in spreadsheets.

Manufacturers spend 35–60% of revenue ($1–3B annually for a global enterprise) on raw materials. Yet the decisions affecting this exposure are fragmented across ERPs, spreadsheets, negotiations, engineering, and market reports.

Four critical dimensions — Margin, Innovation, Supply Chain, and Collaboration — are managed in isolation. Small improvements in decision quality create disproportionate shareholder value.

What we do

Four pillars of category intelligence, an integrated platform, and 487 pre-mapped materials.

Explore the full picture — solutions, industries served, and how the platform delivers value.
