Multi-Vendor Procurement

What is multi-vendor procurement and how is it relevant to IT asset management?

Multi-vendor procurement is a strategy for sourcing IT assets in which you choose from a few suppliers to keep pricing competitive and avoid bottlenecks. It’s smart and has several benefits:

• Better pricing: Vendors compete for your business. 
• Reliable supply: You’re not stranded if a supplier drops the ball. 
• More choices: You find the perfect match for your needs. 
• Lower risk: Spreading orders across vendors means you’re not putting all your eggs in one basket!
