Supplier OIG

Supplier OIG uses AI and RPA to automate the identification of suppliers listed on the Office of Inspector General (OIG) block list. This solution displays these suppliers in a dedicated list within FSM, which enable users to take necessary compliance actions. By simplifying the procurement workflow and eliminating manual involvement, the system reduces human error, improves accuracy, accelerates processing, and lowers time and operational costs.

This solution automates the workflow:

  • Navigates to OIG website.
  • Retrieves the list of blacklisted suppliers.
  • Compares suppliers in FSM and suppliers in OIG.
  • Validates post name and validates against SSN/TAX ID.

The advantages of this solution include improved compliance, reduced risk, time efficiency, and real-time visibility.

    • Open the Infor RPA Tray Assistant application.
    • After a successful login, verify or install the latest workflow process.
    • Provide all the necessary user arguments.
  • Unattended mode: The user must open the Infor OS and the RPA Management application to provide process parameters and to configure and implement the job.
