Portfolio

Active Projects

This portfolio contains active tools, pilots, and published work. Each project runs on its own dedicated infrastructure and access model. Where access is restricted, it is due to partner constraints and data governance. “Evidence-backed” refers to signals such as contract history and structured records. NPL does not certify suppliers.

Nordic Supplier Discovery Tool

Public procurement teams, resilience planners, strategic-sector buyers, and suppliers seeking visibility

A public-access discovery tool that lets users describe a procurement need in natural language and returns an evidence-backed shortlist of relevant Nordic suppliers. Results are grounded in procurement records rather than marketing claims.

Supplier discovery in cross-border markets is slow and biased toward incumbents. Many capable SMEs remain invisible because they do not use the same language as tenders and do not have the reach to market themselves across countries. The tool reduces discovery friction while keeping results grounded in evidence.

SAMSIK Resilience Pilot

Resilience and emergency management stakeholders, public agencies responsible for continuity planning

A pilot platform demonstrating how AI and knowledge graph infrastructure can support resilience planning and crisis readiness by mapping procurement and supplier relationships. The aim is to support faster mobilization decisions during emergencies and improve preparedness before incidents.

In a crisis, manual outreach and fragmented spreadsheets do not scale. Agencies need a credible way to identify suppliers with documented delivery history, understand concentration risk, and see potential single points of failure across critical categories.

Horizon Scanner

Defense and strategic-sector procurement teams, capability planners, industrial policy and resilience stakeholders

An AI-powered infrastructure that ingests procurement plans and restructures them into a traceable, multi-tier demand and dependency map. The purpose is to convert static planning documents into structured representations that support earlier market engagement and earlier visibility into dependencies.

Access coming soon

Strategic-sector procurement faces a volume and visibility problem: plans are often published as broad line items that are hard for suppliers to interpret and hard for buyers to operationalize. Authorities face high inbound noise and limited capacity to triage proposals. Multi-tier dependencies are difficult to see early, especially beyond tier-1.

Nordic Defense Procurement Report and Dashboard

Defense procurement stakeholders, strategic-sector policymakers, defense industry, analysts, and researchers

A public report analyzing Nordic defense procurement trends from 2015 to 2025, paired with an interactive dashboard that supports deeper exploration than the static report.

Defense procurement discussions are often based on anecdotes, partial snapshots, or narrow categories. This project provides an evidence-backed view of procurement patterns across the Nordic region, including where activity concentrates and how buyer-supplier relationships form across countries and categories.
