SupplyHouse.com

SupplyHouse.com is an online distributor of plumbing, heating, and HVAC supplies with fast shipping aimed at trade professionals. Polygrade treats SupplyHouse.com as one supplier in a real-time sourcing decision, not a system to read a claim from, SupplyHouse.com doesn’t hold claim data, it holds parts.

What Polygrade does with SupplyHouse.com

When a claim needs a part, Polygrade identifies the exact part required from technician notes and homeowner symptom detail, then searches across suppliers including SupplyHouse.com to compare plumbing and HVAC supply catalog listings and shipping estimates.

What Polygrade knows to search for at SupplyHouse.com comes from the homeowner’s own SMS thread, model and serial numbers, photos, and symptom detail collected in a triage conversation with an 80 to 83 percent response rate, not a technician’s guess after the fact.

Polygrade validates fit against the specific appliance model before ordering, places the order with whichever supplier, SupplyHouse.com or another in the comparison, offers the best combination of price, fit, and shipping, then tracks it through delivery and return.

How the SupplyHouse.com connection works

SupplyHouse.com’s ordering platform is accessible for catalog and order data, which is where Polygrade compares price and shipping speed before ordering.

Where SupplyHouse.com doesn’t expose an ordering interface Polygrade can call directly, a Forward Deployed Engineer builds the connection during deployment so SupplyHouse.com stays in the supplier comparison without manual lookup.

What stays with SupplyHouse.com

SupplyHouse.com’s own inventory, pricing, and fulfillment logistics stay exactly where SupplyHouse.com manages them. Polygrade doesn’t change how SupplyHouse.com stocks or ships parts, it changes how often SupplyHouse.com gets found as the best option for a given part.

Across existing parts operations, Polygrade identifies roughly 12.6 percent procurement overspend against optimal supplier routing, comparisons that include SupplyHouse.com alongside every other supplier in the network.

Throughput and data handling

Manual parts sourcing runs about 6 orders per agent hour; with Polygrade comparing suppliers including SupplyHouse.com automatically, that reaches 60. Order cycle time drops from 9 to 20 days down to under 10.

The comparison against SupplyHouse.com runs on a company-specific Polygrade instance, one client’s sourcing and pricing data are never accessible to another. Polygrade is SOC 2 compliant, with both Type I and Type II audits complete.

Deploying the integration

A dedicated Forward Deployed Engineer sets up the SupplyHouse.com connection alongside your existing supplier relationships, so SupplyHouse.com is compared on equal footing with every other distributor in your network from day one.
