THE PLATFORM

From scattered files to clear next steps.

CleanFeed handles the document work and gives your receiving, purchasing, and quality teams a clearer view of what arrived—and what needs attention.

01 / INTAKE

Get the data without the typing.

Receive supplier BOLs, MTRs, and invoices through configured email and SFTP workflows. Turn supported, supplier-specific formats into usable information.

LESS REKEYING · FEWER SILOS
02 / CONTEXT

Connect the information as it arrives.

Browse loads, coils, and heats. Link MTRs by heat number, preserve source-file history, and translate supplier PO and part numbers into your own.

ONE TRACEABLE RECORD
03 / CHECKS

Catch problems before they spread.

Flag missing fields, duplicate records, and weight discrepancies. For teams that need it, compare documented material properties with specifications and order requirements.

EXCEPTIONS BEFORE SURPRISES

HOW IT WORKS

From incoming document to informed decision.

No new routine for your service centers. CleanFeed follows the way information actually arrives, including documents that show up after the shipment.

01

Receive

Ingest BOLs, mill test reports, and invoices from configured supplier channels and formats.

02

Connect

Normalize shipment details. Link coils, loads, and heat data as related documents arrive.

03

Check

Flag gaps and inconsistencies at intake. Add material checks against your specifications when needed.

04

Act

Review exceptions, make material decisions where relevant, and export the data your systems need.

MATERIAL CHECKS / WHEN YOU NEED THEM

Need to verify material?
Know what needs review.

For teams that verify steel against purchasing specifications, CleanFeed compares documented chemistry and mechanical properties with the requirements you define. Missing evidence and out-of-range values are surfaced for review—not silently passed.

Checks where you need themUse material profiles based on your own rules, with templates available where supported.
Your ordersAssociate requirements with part numbers and PO lines when applicable.
Your final decisionReview the findings and record acceptance, deviation, or rejection yourself.

BUILT AROUND YOUR OPERATIONS

A complete picture, without changing how your suppliers work.

Supplier files arrive in different formats, with different identifiers, and rarely all at once. CleanFeed keeps the original information and gives your team consistent records to work from.

  • Use your own PO and part numbersMap supplier identifiers to yours without losing the original values.
  • Get usable data outFilter shipments and choose the fields you need for CSV export.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Built for the real-world messiness of steel paperwork.

The details differ by supplier and customer. That's why the first conversation starts with your actual files.

Will our service centers need to change how they send files?

CleanFeed is designed around existing supplier delivery workflows. Email and SFTP are supported ingestion channels; the specific file formats and onboarding scope are confirmed with your team.

What happens when an MTR arrives after the bill of lading?

When an MTR is associated with a heat number, its mechanical and chemistry data can fill in the matching coil records. Material evaluations can be refreshed as that evidence changes.

Can we use CleanFeed without material checks?

Yes. You can use CleanFeed for automated file intake, organized shipment and coil records, data-quality checks, and exports without setting up material profiles. Material verification is available for teams that need it.

Does a passing material check automatically accept a coil?

No. CleanFeed shows whether the available evidence matches your requirements, what doesn't match, and what needs review. Your team makes and records the receiving decision.
