Jagan Reddy, Head of Engineering, implemented Kipo AI. The engineering team uses the AI agent to specify parts for new processes, while the sourcing team uses it to second-source, quote, and negotiate hundreds of parts at once from bills of material.
Air Company developed a process to turn captured carbon into synthetic jet fuel. But their manual procurement process was slow and error-prone, leading to vendor lock-in and delays across billions of dollars in planned spend for multiple plants.
With Kipo's help, Air Company delivers plants months ahead of competitors and wins ever-larger offtake agreements. As it scales further and spends billions on new facilities, Kipo will help it save eight to nine figures in equipment.
“It would take me all afternoon to find a cost-saving alternative to a single Emerson instrument. We can't spend that time. The Kipo platform lets us both move fast and hit our cost targets.”
AirCo saves 12% using the Sourcing Agent and completes sourcing six weeks faster. The AI handles RFQs and negotiations on auto-pilot with human oversight.
Kipo's AI assistant saves each user seven hours per week by reading drawings and datasheets to match parts to technical requirements.
Select and configure automation and control components to meet complex technical requirements, saving 10 hours per week.
Find cost-saving alternates and use AI agents to negotiate on everything from high-end controllers to commodities.
Ensure engineering picks available parts and purchasing orders the right parts from the fastest distributors.
