SAP Fieldglass: Vendor Analysis (Part 2) — VMS solution strengths and weaknesses, in-depth solution details, analyst summary

SAP Fieldglass has long been regarded as one of the leading VMS (Vendor Management Solution) in the market, distinguished by the depth of its solution offering, volume of spend under management, global market reach (including reach into areas not previously supported by traditional VMS providers), customer-centric approach, reliable support, and adaptability within the broader talent market. Over the years, SAP has expanded across multiple types of support for the broader extended workforce, and it has developed solutions that may not fit into the traditional VMS footprint.

This two-part Spend Matters PRO Vendor Analysis series is based on recent briefings and demos of SAP Fieldglass capabilities and roadmap. SAP Fieldglass is evolving toward being a platform that can provide the market with multiple external workforce capabilities as it seeks to provide a solution platform that seamlessly fits within the broader total talent ecosystem, offering fit-for-purpose domain solutions (today there are four distinct core offerings available, with support for other external workforce types through various partnerships).

The first part of this two-part Spend Matters PRO Vendor Analysis of SAP Fieldglass presents a company background, a high-level solution overview, a company SWOT analysis and tech selection tips. It also provides a detailed list of SAP Fieldglass’ competitors. Part 2 of this series provides a deeper dive into the common use cases the platform supports, along with a section on strengths/weaknesses, and an analyst summary.
