The Workrise Platform Can Expand Your Approved Vendor List and Reduce Vendor Expenses by 35%
This size of a company’s approved vendor list can sometimes be directly associated with the speed they can move. Smaller vendor lists mean that when a new capability need arises on a job site or if a need arises in a new region, operations teams have to go through the onerous process of finding and vetting the vendors they need. Once they’ve found them, there is the challenging task of onboarding them which can take 6+ months.
Sourcing new vendors can interrupt operations and have a huge impact on cost. The impact of downtime is significant. One study by EY showed that 60% of oil and gas projects experienced schedule delays, and 38% had cost overruns and the impact is in the billion and even trillion dollar range.[3]
