Avetta: Vendor Analysis (Part 3) — Competitive and Summary Analysis

The worlds of supplier networks, supplier management and services procurement compliance are converging — and Avetta is one of the providers at the forefront of this convergence. Avetta’s initial releases and managed service offering addressed independent contractor verification, validation and management. In some industries, accidents or errors from unqualified third-party contractors, either due to lack of training or lack of certification, can result in million-dollar lawsuits and threats to public safety, so ensuring proper qualifications and training is key.

Today, Avetta has evolved its offering to deliver an enhanced supplier management platform customized for credentialing, certification and contractor capability tracking with respect to health and safety, sustainability and other specific needs. However, unlike some niche supplier information management solutions, the solution allows the questions and profiles to be configured for each supplier based upon service(s) provided, risk profile or industry — and takes this capability down to the individual contractor level.

This final installment of our multipart Spend Matters PRO Vendor Snapshot series covering Avetta offers a competitive analysis and comparison with other procurement technology providers. It also includes a user selection guide, user interface and user experience (UI/UX) analysis and summary evaluation and selection considerations. Part 1 and Part 2 of this PRO research series provide a company and deep dive solution overview, a SWOT analysis, product strengths and weaknesses and a recommended fit analysis for what types of organizations should consider Avetta.
