Exiger Acquires Proprietary Parts Intelligence Company XSB
Summary
“This acquisition is in response to a growing number of customers who are eager to bring the power of AI to pain points like depot maintenance, category management, parts obsolescence, parts alternatives, price defensibility, and supply chain optimization, and want to be able to access these capabilities within Exiger’s centralized platform,” says Exiger president Carrie Wibben. “XSB’s dataset and cutting-edge AI capabilities will help our government customers increase speed, efficiency and execution, while reducing counterfeit loss, manufacturing costs, research time and the impact of out-of-date parts.” • Founded by data scientists, XSB uses an ensemble of AI-based applications to transform unstructured data into actionable intelligence. XSB’s graph database is widely used across government agencies, platforms and combatant commands, as well as the Defense Industrial Base. The platform offers rich technical data for National Stock Numbers and component parts, reducing design, manufacturing and selection costs while improving quality and reliability throughout the product life cycle. In addition to identifying supply chain partners and surfacing pricing and availability intelligence, XSB helps customers ensure compliance with regulatory standards such as Environmental, REACH and RoHS.
