The relationship between your VMS, your MSP partner, and your team should be an asset—not a roadblock. If you got off on the wrong foot or have drifted apart, you’ll never experience the value that true partnership brings.
We have a few ideas when it comes to what makes a great VMS partnership. Download our checklist before your next account review to:
Whilst having a VMS provider makes your programme run, having a VMS partner takes you where you need to go.
Our native language is Beeline, but we’re also fluent in SAP, Oracle, Workday and anyone else who helps your business run.
Flexible. Nimble. Agile. Your VMS technology should adapt to your needs, not the other way around. Many source-to-settle suites are powerful in size, but lack the rapid innovation necessary to help businesses along in their digital transformation.
The proof is in the numbers. Gartner found that just over half of respondents in a recent survey use a single P2P suite, but of those, 64% are only doing so within a single region or country. In a new report, Gartner lays out its recommendations for choosing the right technology strategy to meet your specific needs.
Consider what’s possible when your account team brings ideas to the table. Or, when your VMS fits your workforce programme like a glove.
