FAQs
How MAP2B moves from a specific need to an explainable provider selection.
What is MAP2B?
MAP2B is a B2B decision and matching platform for complex provider decisions. Companies describe their situation and requirements; MAP2B structures the need and identifies suitable providers.
What does MAP2B take off my plate?
MAP2B translates a complex need into comparable criteria, matches them with provider capabilities, and reduces the market to a reasoned shortlist.
How does matching work?
Matching initially uses explainable rules. Requirement attributes are compared with verifiable provider capabilities and characteristics.
Who is MAP2B for?
MAP2B is for companies that need to select and compare suitable B2B providers for a specific, complex requirement.
Does MAP2B decide which provider I must choose?
No. MAP2B structures the decision, explains the fit, and makes alternatives visible. The company seeking a provider remains in control of selection and contact.
How explainable are the recommendations?
A match should show which requirements and provider capabilities support the recommendation. Sources, review dates, and verification status are considered for important data.
Do I need to provide contact details immediately?
No. Requirements should first be captured and providers matched without contact details. Details are requested only after you select the recipients for a specific request.
Do paid partnerships influence matching?
Paid partnerships must not secretly influence the regular match score. Any additional sponsored visibility must be labeled separately.
Is MAP2B limited to energy audits?
No. Energy audits and energy efficiency consulting are the first vertical. The platform is designed for further specialized B2B procurement markets.
