HOW CANARY WORKS

Turn campus feedback into better supplier performance.

Facilities, labs, dining, IT, and academic departments experience contracts in different ways. Canary brings their feedback together and helps procurement follow through.

01 / LISTEN

Gather feedback

Invite campus purchasers to submit quick reviews. Add Custom Questions alongside the standard review when a contract has specific requirements to measure.

02 / UNDERSTAND

Find the pattern

View supplier scores, comments, and trends by campus unit and contract. Alerts and AI summaries help recurring issues stand out.

03 / ACT

Improve service

Bring the evidence into supplier conversations, coordinate follow-ups, and use the record in business reviews, renewals, and future sourcing.

VISIBILITY ACROSS CAMPUS

See where service is strong and where it slips.

A supplier can deliver well for one department and struggle in another. Canary brings reviews together across campus, then lets you drill into results by supplier, unit, or contract. Compare providers on the same agreement and focus attention where it matters.

FROM INSIGHT TO ACTION

Give suppliers a clear way to respond.

Performance alerts surface concerns while there is still time to fix them. AI summaries organize recurring themes. Supplier Enablement and the Communications Hub give your team and your suppliers the same context for questions, replies, and next steps.

BUILT FOR THE CONTRACT LIFECYCLE

The performance record becomes useful at every step.

01 / ACTIVE CONTRACTS

Catch problems earlier

Hear about missed deliveries, slow responses, and inconsistent service while your team can still address them.

02 / BUSINESS REVIEWS

Come prepared

Walk into supplier meetings with specific feedback and trends from the people using the contract.

03 / RENEWAL & REBID

Use the history

Bring a documented view of performance into renewal, negotiation, and future sourcing decisions.

A HIGHER ED PERSPECTIVE

“Having spent more than a decade in higher education procurement, I know how hard it is to get this regular feedback…”
