摘要

The storage unit 120 stores the purchase request information 14, the supplier company information 17, and the supplier product information 18. The matching unit 130 selects the supplier 30 from the supplier company information 17 as the selected supplier based on the purchase request information 14. [ The matching unit 130 also determines the degree to which the specification of the supplied product supplied by the election supplier matches the specification of the product desired to be purchased. The matching unit 130 analyzes the difference between the specification of the supplied product supplied by the election supplier and the specification of the product desired to be purchased when the degree is smaller than the threshold value. Then, the matching unit 130 determines whether or not to extract the information of the supply product of the selected supplier from the supplier product information 18, based on the analysis result.
