Increase Transparency and Mitigate Risk in the Public Sector with Contractor and Supplier Management

Public sector organizations must live up to greater expectations from stakeholders-and face higher scrutiny-when it comes to subjects such as transparency, efficiency and compliance. This includes policies and procedures that ensure fair bidding practices and managing the risk of utilizing outside service providers in terms of health and safety, security, insurance coverage, liability and costs.

ComplyWorks contractor and supplier management solutions help public sector organizations live up to those expectations and provide a greater degree of transparency. With ComplyWorks, public sector organizations such as school districts and all levels of government can standardize the process of selecting and hiring contractors and suppliers by prequalifying those that are compliant with their internal requirements, industry regulations and relevant legislation. Organizations can then interact with prequalified contractors and suppliers via communications that can be tracked and audited, including records that show who's read and acknowledged individual notifications. At the same time, ComplyWorks streamlines the procurement process from prequalification and selection through to monitoring performance and payment at the end of a contract or project.

The result is risk mitigation that increases safety and security wherever contractors and suppliers are engaged, shortens the delay between the times when contractors and suppliers are hired and work begins, improves the quality of work performed and strengthens the relationships between employers, contractors and suppliers, and employees-and between public organizations and stakeholders such as consituents, collective bargaining groups and other levels of government.
