VENDOR MANAGEMENT

Automated.Consulting can offer a full range of vendor management services including researching and sourcing vendors, obtaining quotes with pricing, capabilities, turnaround times, and quality of work, negotiating contracts, managing relationships, assigning jobs, evaluating performance, and ensuring payments are made.

Most projects dip into outside resources to achieve their objectives. It’s becoming increasingly rare for any one organization to have all the goods and services necessary to complete the work they’ve set out for themselves.

We analyze key variables about the vendors that are bidding or interacting with your business. Inquiries such as; Does the vendor have extensive experience? Have they worked in similar environments? Are they stable? Do they have standardized processes and provide economies of scale? Have they been sued? What’s the highest dollar amount on a project they have worked? What’s their rating on the BBB? Social Media? Consumer Reports?

Automated.Consulting takes care of the vendor management for you so your business can focus on growth and your customers.

  • Vendor Selection

    Using an up-to-date risk profile and qualifying and segmenting based on category, location, and business unit, while simultaneously cross referencing public reviews, formal complaints and other important metrics.

  • Risk Assessment

    Performing risk due diligence based on the nature of your vendor engagement, we ensure that the vendors you deal with wont create reputational risk or financial risk.

  • Contract Negotiation

    Establishing terms and risk KPIs are paramount to making sure that vendors understand the project scope and don’t over bill.  We have seen time and time again where vendors bill an enormous amount of hours with no oversight. We also provide time sheet review, task tracking and full accountability for vendors to make sure that you get what you pay for and nothing less.

  • Onboarding Vendors

    Need to bring on new vendors? Getting them acquainted with the processes and procedures of the company takes time. Giving them the information and documents they need to perform their duties or complete their tasks is a process that we can handle efficiently.

  • Managing Performance

    Utilizing a matrix-based, single view of vendors and a data-driven incident model, we are able to track vendor’s performance and determine whether their cost vs. risk vs. performance is a viable option as the project progresses.

We manage your vendors so your company can focus on whats important. Speak To A Consultant
