E-Meet Software for Automated Vendor Management
What is E-Meet?
Brooklyn E-meet provides automated management capabilities for all of your suppliers, by sending out regular vendor review questionnaires that have some new, important capabilities. Results are then collated into the platform, giving you an overview of vendor performance.
Next actions are available for the platform to take, based on the user’s configuration of those questionnaire responses. Consequently, your team begins its work with more facts in hand and the right next actions already underway, when appropriate.
Your team recovers time and rests assured that any issues found in smaller vendors that require manual intervention will be brought to your attention automatically.
What is the Problem?
Regardless of the size of your team, remaining consistently connected to vendors is a time-consuming and incessantly manual process. It is essential to stay ahead, but demand for your attention can allow critical issues to go unresolved if not spotted. The growth of your business will only widen the haystack in which to find needles and overwhelm the workforce sourced to find them.
Current-generation assessment and/or survey tools are en vogue but do not solve enough of the problem. In fact, they might add to the problem if overused. What’s been missing until now is a level of dynamic response in which real and meaningful governance activity happens, completely automatically, based on the responses coming back and pursuant to very easy-to-understand rules.
What is the Solution?
All clients need to be kept in close contact with your company, however, the levels of urgency will differ. Managing larger strategic clients will naturally take up more of your team’s time leaving delays in smaller follow-ups. Brooklyn’s E-meet works by automating forms and questionnaires to smaller vendors and depositing the results into online documents that you can access to track where action may be required.
What is completely additive and special about the E-Meet approach is the scoring mechanism and the easy manner in which users can compose the right next action, based on the answer received, at a granular level. Brooklyn users cut down on emails and skip the predictable, oft-repeated follow-up to answers submitted — the platform handles all this, bringing back more and better facts, before the team takes action.
Maximise Effective Governance
Brooklyn assists management of the Vendor Tail, ensuring you are maximising governance and monitoring capabilities against lower-end suppliers post-contract.
Only through a purpose-built digital approach can any organisation get across the vendor tail and handle the latent, embedded risk, innovation, and optimisation opportunities. This is exactly the capability now opened up via E-Meet.
Centralised Visiblity
E-Meet gathers feedback from stakeholders and enters this into a central scoring mechanism.
Automatically Flag Risks
Supports risk management by flagging risks and issues for manual intervention based on responses given by your suppliers.
How It Works?
Brooklyn’s E-meet reduces extensive manual vendor management workload by introducing automated management across: Vendor Tail Business Reviews, Pre-Meeting Content Capture, Periodic Process Refresh Follow-Ups, Strategic Innovation Forums, Regulatory Compliance Checks, and more. By applying E-meet to the workspace, businesses reduce the burden on their teams to perform manual outreach. This allows them to focus on high priority tasks.
