SourcePanel + responsible AI

Experience seamless project execution with SourcePanel's AI-driven project scoping, efficient automated project management and intelligent resource assignment.

SourcePanel Project Builder

  • Receive initial project title and description
  • Combine data with historical customer project data, customer profile and customer vertical.
  • Run data through our hybrid LLM model which is a combination of enterprise LLMs and our internal LLM. Our internal LLM is a combination of historical SourcePanel project data and our vectorized database of skill sets.
  • Run data through customized prompt instructions based on customer project data, customer profile, customer vertical market and historical SourcePanel project scoping data.
  • AI generates 3-5 project scoping questions for the customer.
  • Receive additional data input and generate templatized project scope
  • Included scope enhancements as appropriate
  • Allow customer to select additional scope recommendations.
  • Regenerate project scope to be presented to the assigned SourcePanel service or solution provider.  SourcePanel automatically generates ideal skill sets for project.

Support

  • By vectorizing data associated with commonly asked questions, we are able to provide customers and providers a free text support mechanism with highly accurate outputs. This enables our users to avoid reading through a long list of FAQs or recommended support articles. Who wants to do that? Not us.
  • Just type your question and get your answer quickly. And if you still need help your assigned account manager is only an email away.

SourcePanel Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)

  • Vectorization of Internal Data: SourcePanel’s database of IT project work has been converted into vector embeddings
  • Retrieval Mechanism: Instead of relying solely on a vendor-based Large Language Model (LLM) which has pretrained knowledge only, a retrieval step fetches relevant vectorized SourcePanel data based on a query.
  • Augmented Generation: The retrieved data is fed into SourcePanel’s selected LLM as context, allowing it to generate more relevant and accurate recommendations and project scope improvements.
  • Fine-Tuning: SourcePanel also fine-tunes this hybrid approach by extensively testing outputs in our proprietary prompt engineering playground. This allows us to generate highly personalized outputs for our customers and service providers.

Resource assignment and solution recommendations

  • SourcePanel has vectorized our database of 900+ supported skill sets and engineered the intelligent project builder to recommend ideal skill sets for a project
  • We take the skill recommendations output and combine this with an algorithm that assesses the provider’s likely success on the project. This includes historical provider data, current utilization, historical pricing, total resources, location and more.
  • We then recieve a list of ideal matches and this list is reviewed by one of our humans for actual assignment. In many cases we will make a call or two to verify skill sets and availability of skill sets.

Licensing

  • SourcePanel has multiple vendor-direct agreements and two wholesale distribution agreements for IT licensing. The agreements afford SourcePanel with API integrations to real-time special pricing, discount programs, licensing management portals, and more. SourcePanel also receives regular FTP files with updated product numbers, pricing updates and purchasing trends. SourcePanel AI allows us to dynamically obtain the best licensing options for our customers, and then manage that licensing to ensure ongoing optimized licensing.
  • SourcePanel licensing options include:
    • Microsoft
    • Google
    • Oracle
    • Dell
    • Salesforce
    • Cisco
    • and hundreds of vertical and application specific SaaS products
  • SourcePanel intelligence allows you to enter SCU numbers, product names, or even types of applications like “CRM” or “web security”. Then SourcePanel’s intelligent licensing module will ask you a few questions and present you with options and best pricing. You can then procure licensing, add on specialized professional services if you like, and deploy or update your licensing. All the while, your IT licensing will be managed and available to you on a dynamic dashboard where you can add or remove seats as needed.
  • The easiest way to get started is to start a licensing audit project from our solutions marketplace and then move some or all of your (newly discounted!) licensing over to your SourcePanel account.
