Construction Material Company Streamlines Vendor and Contract Worker Management

“In the past, we relied on paper certificates, and we couldn’t be certain that a supplier’s insurance was up to date. That’s a nightmare for our risk management. Today, Avetta gives us clear information that tells us where our risks are and helps us drive better partnerships with our suppliers.”

– Director of Procurement, Building Material Supply Company

A leading U.S. construction materials company transformed vendor and contract worker management with Avetta – automating compliance, cutting manual work by 25%, and reducing incident rates by 44%.

Challenges in Compliance Management

This company used to shut down its major construction material plants for two weeks annually for equipment repair and maintenance. With much of this work outsourced, it required documenting and training hundreds of contract workers from different service providers, and ensuring access to sites was streamlined.

Before Avetta, the company managed vendor information manually. Procurement staff spent up to 25% of their time validating insurance certificates, and resolving missing or incomplete documentation could take weeks. With this manual process, they lacked confidence that supplier information was fully validated.

The company needed a solution to:

  • Automate vendor information management
  • Gain unified visibility into vendor capabilities
  • Assess risks across all suppliers

The Avetta Experience

Avetta helped the company quickly implement a centralized management system for repetitive, template-based processes. During the initial launch, documents for 300 workers at one site were processed, and the system was soon scaled to manage 1,500 workers across three sites.

The platform’s templates simplified registration for procurement staff and suppliers, eliminating duplicate supplier records stored in data silos. With many suppliers already in Avetta’s network, onboarding and procurement processes improved immediately.

With Avetta, vendors could be verified, trained, and evaluated before arriving on site, minimizing gate congestion and ensuring maintenance was completed on time.
