IT Vendor Management Services

Outsource Your Heavy Lifting to IT Vendor Managers

Think about the last time you invested in a new solution at your workplace. How many vendors did you have to deal with to implement it? More importantly, how much resources and time did you spend customizing every solution according to your requirement?

Our 6-Step IT Vendor Management Approach

Develop a Vendor Management Strategy

Before we do what we do, we take our time to understand your industry, specific business needs, current IT infrastructure, and budget to plan our approach. For example, if you prioritize network security and reliability, we’ll recommend solutions that stand out in those departments.

Create Contracts and Bid Documents

Depending on your company size, you’ll have to seek bids for big purchases and vendor relations based on your organization’s needs. This process involves creating a Request for Quote, Information, or Proposal document which we’ll send out to different vendors for prices, solutions, recommendations, etc.

Vendor Management

Using KPI reports and active monitoring tools, we practically manage all the vendors you have onboard your enterprise. We also look for ways to reduce costs and improve performance by active feedback to the vendors. With a stable relationship model, we keep an eye on everything while you and your team carry out their everyday tasks, thus ensuring the vendor’s service quality remains consistent throughout the contract’s tenure.

Contract Negotiations

After narrowing down the list of potential vendors, we proceed to negotiate the contract with both the preferred solution and the next best alternative. We take our time to negotiate a win-win contract so both parties can have a mutually beneficial relationship and grow together.

Offer Evaluation and Vendor Shortlist

We will evaluate all offers available based on cost, compatibility with your IT infrastructure, and your IT team’s competence. Most businesses automatically opt for the lowest price, but we put emphasis on your needs and choose the right solution. This way, you have a better chance of achieving your strategic and operational goals. Settling for the lowest bidder often means you’re compensating for performance.

Create a Vendor Selection Criteria

To ensure we’re on the same page throughout, we proactively devise vendor selection criteria based on strengths, weaknesses, and value offerings. This way, you can choose solutions that best fit your organization in terms of cost, performance, security, support, etc.
