Are you looking to optimize how you manage your non-employee workforce and the staffing agencies you use to source those contingent workers? If so, you’ve probably heard the ROI you can realize from the implementation of a vendor management system (VMS).

A VMS brings huge benefits to your organization, allowing you to implement an effective contingent workforce management program that leads to both soft and hard cost savings, improved workforce quality and more strategic staffing agency decision-making.

Through the use of a vendor management system your business will be able to automate processes for improved efficiencies, gain complete visibility into your contingent workforce program, consolidate your staffing agencies for more insightful performance data and control the rates that hiring managers pay across your organization through standardization. 

With that in mind, are you actively on the hunt for a vendor management system but have no idea where to start with all of your questions? We have an eBook that will help. 

Conexis VMS has created the Complete VMS Buyers’ Guide, featuring everything your business needs to know when searching for the right VMS solution.


The ebook, titled ‘Your Complete VMS Buyer’s Guide’, answers all of the questions that your organization will have in the process of choosing a vendor management system to manage its staffing agencies and contingent workforce requirements.

Those questions include:

What is a vendor management system?

We answer some of your questions around what a vendor management system is, and how it improves your staffing agency management and contingent workforce management process through improved visibility, vendor consolidation and process automation.

What benefits will your organization realize from the use of a VMS?

We take a look at some of the benefits that your company will realize as a result of using a VMS, such as better cost control, improved vendor and workforce visibility, access to a higher-quality workforce, significant process efficiencies and improved compliance.

What VMS functionalities do you need? 

Traditionally, VMS solutions were only built for large enterprise organizations with huge contingent workforce budgets. Companies with smaller contingent workforce budgets simply don’t need the functionalities that come with these expensive systems. To find a VMS solution that works for your business, we’ve listed a few core functionalities (such as vendor consolidation, the centralization of your program and easy scalability as your company grows) that you should look out for when selecting your solution.

How do you gain VMS buy-in from your company’s stakeholders?

Any investment is a big decision for your business. That’s why you need the buy-in from your entire team, especially the important stakeholders within your organization. To help you achieve that, we’ve created a quick four-step process to build a winning case for VMS implementation.

How much does a vendor management system cost?

Last but not least, you're going to want to know exactly how much a vendor management system costs before you make your final decision. Unfortunately, the vast majority of VMS solutions are incredibly expensive, requiring a minimum spend volume for your organization to be able to use them. That’s where Conexis VMS comes in. We have built the very first vendor management system designed to automate and consolidate the entire non-employee workforce and staffing agency management process, with no minimum spend requirements
