The Challenge
Prior to collaborating with Azumo, Facebook encountered several challenges in supplier management at conferences:
- Overwhelming Attendees: Facebook's conferences attracted a large number of attendees, making it challenging to efficiently manage supplier information.
- Limited Tracking: Beyond business cards, Facebook had no systematic way to track and categorize suppliers, leading to missed opportunities.
- Lost Potential: Promising vendors often fell through the cracks due to the lack of a streamlined supplier management system.
- Limited Supplier Search: Facebook teams had limited ability to search for suppliers when new opportunities arose, hindering their ability to connect with potential partners effectively.
The Solution
Azumo worked closely with Facebook to develop a comprehensive solution that addressed their specific supplier management needs at conferences:
- Azumo built a react-based conversational application.
- The app allowed suppliers to self-register with Facebook.
- Suppliers could scan their basic information into the system.
- They could then chat with the bot to provide additional details.
- A robust database allowed all suppliers to be categorized and scored.

Azumo's agile development approach and expertise in software development delivered outstanding results for Facebook's supplier management at conferences:
- Enterprise-Ready Solution: Within just eight (8) weeks, Azumo developed and delivered an enterprise-ready application, providing Facebook with a powerful and efficient supplier management system.
- Efficient Supplier Search: Today, Facebook can quickly search for suppliers and connect with potential partners with ease. This streamlined process has significantly improved their ability to find and engage with suppliers.
- Organized Conference Events: With the new application, conference events are more orderly, and critical supplier data is no longer lost in the process.
- Opportunity for Suppliers: Suppliers now have a platform to shine inside Facebook, with a systematic approach to showcase their offerings and connect with the company.
