Every product in your categories, understood. What it is. What replaces it. Who else makes it. What you pay against the market. Whether it may still be sold. And when the next price update lands, what changes — checked, matched, and in your system within the day.

From agreed price list to your ERP
A negotiated saving counts from the first order placed at the new price. Every order before that is leakage.

Category Management is a loop. Most tools cover one arc of it, and the rest falls back to spreadsheets — including decisions worth millions.

Category Management is a loop.
RSI follows a category through the whole turn — from knowing the product to enforcing the price you agreed — on one model of your assortment. Better decisions, stronger supplier relationships and more resilient supply chains
The Category Loop
Category Intelligence for every product from assortment strategy to negotiation.
RSI combines your product data, supplier catalogues, market information, and public registries to identify assortment gaps, overlaps, alternatives, and rationalization opportunities — and prepares you for price negotiations with evidence on price positions, alternatives, and regulatory status.
Negotiate & Contract
Every price negotiation eventually comes to an end. Then you want the updates reflected in your system — quickly.  
Incoming supplier price lists need to be checked, reliably matched with your data, approved for use, and quickly transferred to your operational systems. As pricing is an ongoing concern, speed, reliability, and precision matter most.
Get into the system

Build your own agents
Deep product intelligence for complex medical and dental assortments.

Recall Space connects manufacturer data, GTINs, regulatory evidence, supplier catalogues and your own material master to identify equivalents, compare alternatives and support sourcing and category decisions with evidence.

Between two annual reviews, the category runs on a spreadsheet.

The Problem

A category is mapped once a year, in a spreadsheet, for the supplier talks. The same product sits under six numbers, so the picture is wrong before it is finished. By the time a supplier price update, a stock-out or an expiring certificate arrives, the analysis is stale — and the decision is made on memory.

The Change
Mapped once, kept current: every item resolved to one product.
Positioned on evidence: your price, the documented alternatives, the qualified second source.
Decided as ranked business cases — and in the ERP the day the price list arrives.
Every signal re-enters at the right stage. Every decision is kept.

In the loop.
