Challenge brief

What you are building

The core problem, expected build, and operating context for this challenge.

Extract rate cards and route conditions from carrier quotation emails written in English, Mandarin, and Malay. Score quotes against Singapore port drayage benchmarks and dispatch orders.

SME procurement manager

Ingest supplier price quotations and vehicle availability messages across regional languages.

Normalize currency conversions, fuel surcharge surcharges, and heavy vehicle parking fees.

Benchmark rates against historical Jurong and Tuas drayage price matrices.

Dispatch selected carrier routing orders to logistics partners via automated webhook payloads.

Comparative quotation dashboard with currency conversion ribbons, rate anomaly callouts, and dispatch trigger buttons.

Construct synthetic multi-currency quotation logs referencing Singapore heavy vehicle parking guidelines. Starter examples below are synthetic. They are not downloaded records.

Singapore open data API Employs Singapore real-time dataset conventions from data.gov.sg for local road and infrastructure fee structures.

dspy, pydantic, fastapi. DSPy compiles robust prompt assertions to normalize diverse tabular quotation formats across three languages. Multilingual model deployed via standard API with deterministic tabular data extraction capabilities.

Submit runnable source, pinned dependencies, setup commands, a working interface, example outputs, and a recorded end-to-end demo. Include tests and an action log.

Normalizes foreign currency freight quotations into Singapore Dollars accurately.

Extracts detention terms, chassis types, and maximum gross vehicle weight allowances.

Highlights uncontracted accessorial charges such as tail-lift or night delivery fees.

Dispatches winning mock carrier allocation payloads with audit timestamps.
