Organizations are making the shift from reactive management to proactive strategy with a VMS

A vendor management system (VMS) is technology that helps organizations manage their external workforce – temporary workers, independent contractors, and project-based services – all in one place.

If your team is managing external talent through disconnected tools or spreadsheets, a VMS can bring everything together in one automated solution. 

More than tracking tool, it is a strategic system that integrates with your broader ecosystem – HR, finance, and procurement – giving you the control and insights you need to grow.

FAQs

A vendor management system (VMS) is a technology that helps organizations manage their external workforce — including temporary workers, independent contractors, and project-based services. It centralizes sourcing, onboarding, tracking, and payment, so you can manage every type of external talent in one place.  


A VMS gives organizations visibility, control, and compliance across their contingent workforce. It helps reduce costs through rate standardization and supplier performance tracking, ensures compliance with labor regulations, and automates manual processes that slow teams down. In short, it transforms extended workforce management from reactive to strategic. 

By consolidating manual processes and fragmented data, a VMS eliminates redundant administrative work and reduces billing errors. Beeline Enterprise, for example, provides real-time analytics that uncover savings opportunities — like rate enforcement, reduced cycle times, and supplier optimization — helping organizations do more with less effort and spend.

A VMS can manage nearly any non-employee labor category, including: 

  • Temporary or contingent workers 
  • Independent contractors 
  • Statement of work (SOW) and project-based resources 
  • Consultants and professional service providers 

With Beeline Enterprise, you can manage all these talent types and the suppliers who support them through a single, connected system.
