What is a Vendor Management System (VMS)?

A Vendor Management System is a centralized program that lets an organization outsource its contract staffing management to a neutral party.

Frontline can provide project leaders or full project teams for any IT or business project. VOP benefits include an account center, an information management center, risk management, custom invoicing, consolidated invoices, and custom reporting.

How does a VMS reduce staffing costs?

A VMS reduces staffing costs by standardizing pricing and contracts across all vendors, consolidating invoicing and reporting, and providing a single point of contact. This eliminates the administrative burden of negotiating and managing multiple vendors and gives organizations clear visibility into vendor performance and spend.

What is the difference between a VMS and an MSP?

A VMS is a neutral, technology-driven program for managing multiple vendors, standardized contracts, and consolidated reporting. An MSP adds a managed-service layer focused on cost savings, performance monitoring, and consistent charge rates across a multi-site organization. Many organizations combine both depending on the scale of their contract staffing needs.

Who benefits most from vendor management services?

Organizations that run large, multi-vendor, or multi-site contract staffing programs benefit most. Companies dealing with inconsistent charge rates, fragmented invoicing, limited vendor performance visibility, or the burden of managing many staffing suppliers gain the most from consolidating under a VMS, MSP, or VOP program.

This simplifies accounts payable and improves visibility into contract staffing spend.
