SHEET 02The ChallengePROBLEM

The vendor management challenge

Procuring companies manage hundreds of vendors. Vendor onboarding is slow: applications, background checks, compliance questionnaires, insurance verification. Staff manually review vendor information against compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, insurance coverage). Performance metrics are tracked manually. Vendor scorecards are outdated. Contract renewals and re-vetting are ad-hoc. Risky vendors slip through gaps.

SHEET 03The SolutionASSEMBLY

How assistents automates vendor management

assistents vendor management agent streamlines onboarding by collecting vendor application data in a guided intake process. Document AI extracts key information from vendor-provided documents (insurance certificates, compliance attestations, financial statements). The agent verifies insurance coverage, performs sanction screening, checks business registry. Integration with DUNS and third-party compliance platforms (Dun & Bradstreet, LexisNexis, Compliance.ai) automates verification. Vendor scorecards are maintained automatically based on performance data (delivery, quality, incident records). Risk ratings guide procurement decisions.
