Vendor Management System

Vendor Management System

A vendor management system (VMS) is an Internet-enabled, often Web-based application that acts as a mechanism for business to manage and procure staffing services – temporary, and, in some cases, permanent placement services – as well as outside contract or contingent labor. Typical features of a VMS application include order distribution, consolidated billing and significant enhancements in reporting capability that outperforms manual systems and processes.

In the financial industry due to recent regulations, vendor management implies consistent Risk Classificant and due diligence done to ensure risk assessment that eliminates undue third-party risks exposure.
