Industry Intelligence Center

Plan industrial equipment purchases with transparent calculators and official public sources. We link to the original data rather than republishing numbers, and every tool states its formula and limits. For projects typically above USD 250,000, our team reviews your RFQ and runs supplier outreach on your behalf.

What is the Industry Intelligence Center?

A free planning workspace for industrial and agri-food equipment buyers. It connects official public datasets (UN Comtrade, FAOSTAT, WTO, World Bank and national tariffs) to calculators with visible formulas, then to a structured RFQ that our team reviews and takes to suppliers on your behalf.

From data to a tracked project

  1. 1. Check official data

    Tariffs, trade flows and country risk from UN Comtrade, FAOSTAT, WTO, World Bank and national customs.

  2. 2. Model the cost

    Landed cost, financing, CAPEX, ROI and payback with visible formulas.

  3. 3. Plan the project

    Turn the estimate into scope, budget and milestones.

  4. 4. Send a reviewed RFQ

    Our team scopes the RFQ and contacts suppliers on your behalf.

  5. 5. Track in your workspace

    Optional sign-in saves the project; the team follows it in our CRM.

Official data explorer

Filter official trade, commodity, tariff, standards and country-risk sources below — each with publisher, coverage, licence and limitations.

Procurement project workspace

Signed-in buyers save projects, tasks and RFQs; our team links them to your managed request. Tools above never require login.

Official data & regulation sources

Linked directly to publishers. We do not show live figures until an authorised data feed is connected, so nothing here is simulated. Check each source's licence before reuse.
