What the publisher says

Smart Sourcing Agent by MCA Connect is an intelligent procurement solution built for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. It automates the RFQ (Request for Quotation) process, scores suppliers based on configurable criteria, and provides real-time insights to help sourcing teams make faster, smarter decisions.

This solution is ideal for procurement managers, sourcing analysts, and supply chain leaders who need to streamline manual sourcing tasks, reduce cycle times, and improve supplier selection accuracy. By integrating directly into Dynamics 365, Smart Sourcing Agent eliminates the need for external tools and manual spreadsheets, enabling a seamless and efficient sourcing workflow.

Organizations often struggle with time-consuming RFQ processes, inconsistent supplier evaluations, and lack of visibility into sourcing performance. Smart Sourcing Agent addresses these challenges by automating RFQ generation, standardizing supplier scoring, and delivering actionable analytics—all within the ERP system.

Reading the score

Disclosure · how many sources corroborate it

NoneNo source has it. Shown red, because Unknown means Unknown.
1 sourceA single place has it. A listing and its certification page and policy docs on one marketplace count as one source.
2+ contestedTwo or more sources cover it but they do not agree. The disagreement is shown, never dropped.
2+ agreeingTwo or more genuinely separate sources agree: another marketplace, or an outside record.
Steps below are possible but not automated yet, so today they sit open.
SettleTop confirmedSettleTop confirms it directly.

Evidence · what kind of evidence backs it

NoneNo source discloses it.
PublicPublicly available info, such as reviews, listing age, or vendor firmographics like legal entity and headquarters.
Vendor statedThe vendor's own claim on its marketplace listing, website, or policy documents.
Self-attestedThe vendor's self-attested certification or operator program, a marketplace program rather than an independent audit.
Steps below are possible but not automated yet, so today they sit open.
Vendor providedThe vendor hands SettleTop the underlying material, such as an SBOM or a data policy.
Vendor attestedThe vendor signs an attestation to SettleTop.
SettleTop verifiedSettleTop verifies it directly.

The SettleTop steps above are possible but not automated yet, so today they sit open and a perfect 10 is out of reach. Open information like firmographics and reach has fewer steps to climb, so it sits a little higher for the same visible evidence.

Information shown here reflects the best available information at the time of assessment and may be incomplete, outdated, or subject to change. It should be independently verified before being relied upon for any decision. SettleTop is not liable for any errors, omissions, or decisions made in reliance on this information.
