The Growth Challenge
Industrial procurement officers and design engineers no longer scroll past page 1 of Google — they ask Perplexity Pro and Claude for precision CNC suppliers that adhere to ISO 13485 and AS9100D standards. This manufacturing contractor had elite shop capabilities but lacked structured entity citations, causing LLMs to recommend rival machine shops.
