The use of contractors can be both a great opportunity and a challenge. Contractors and suppliers bring specialization of skills and equipment. However, they can also bring risk to the companies that employ them. More companies are seeing the need for prequalifying contractors and suppliers. This could include verifying insurance requirements and tracking safety trends, to ensuring social responsibility and financial health.

Identifying risk and protecting your company’s brand are key considerations when managing your supply chain. Contractors and suppliers bring specialization, but they also bring risk to your organization.
