Assembly Requirements

MODULE INVENTORY (5 COMPONENTS)

A large global enterprise producing TV shows and movies for the international market faced increasing inefficiencies in managing procurement from contractors.

The department responsible for hiring service providers struggled with bureaucratic processes, lack of transparency, and operational delays.

Unibrix began with discovery and consulting, identifying how a centralized internal bidding system could eliminate friction, automate workflows, and provide a unified source of truth.

The initial version of the system enabled employees to submit service requests anonymously, receive bids from multiple contractors, and objectively select providers.

Over time, the system evolved far beyond bidding — transforming into a data-driven recommendation engine powered by historical contractor performance.

STEP 02 — CHALLENGES IDENTIFIED

Assembly Requirements

MODULE INVENTORY (5 COMPONENTS)
REQUIRED CAPABILITIES
A
#checked
Engagement
The system needed to process both communication flows and financial data while remaining intuitive for employees managing dozens of simultaneous projects.
B
#checked
Structure
A complex role hierarchy required high-level access control and security due to sensitive financial and proprietary data.
C
#checked
Scalability
The platform had to integrate with multiple corporate systems and third-party services while maintaining performance across years of accumulated data.

STEP 03 — ASSEMBLY PROCESS

Solution Architecture

MODULE INVENTORY (3 COMPONENTS)
MODULE 3.1
● CORE PLATFORM

The first version introduced a structured bidding procedure:

Service request submission — Employees create structured service requests
Anonymous contractor applications — Fair bid submission process
Messaging and negotiations — Built-in communication tools
Payment planning workflows — Financial tracking and planning
Historical cooperation database — Track contractor relationships

Employees could compare proposals objectively while maintaining fairness and transparency.

MODULE 3.2
● EFFICIENCY ENGINE

Three distinct system layers were designed:

#modules
Microservices

Modular architecture
#dot
Scalable design
#heap
Integration
#dot
Corporate ecosystem
#dot
Third-party APIs
#bolt
Automation
#dot
Workflow automation
#dot
Unified dashboard

This tiered-access structure ensures clarity, security, and enterprise control.

MODULE 3.3
● AI-POWERED

The platform transformed from a bidding system into a recommendation system.

Using accumulated historical contractor data, the system began analyzing:

Project performance
#dot
Reviews & reliability
#dot
Price accuracy
#robot-icon
AI Evolution
#dot
Smart matching
#dot

Based on this analysis, the system suggests the most appropriate contractor for a given project.

A fully automated AI-based solution is currently in development.
