Corporate leaders juggle a complex array of risks, responsibilities, and relationships that includes managing an ever-expanding number of third-party contractors, vendors and suppliers. In the past, businesses were forced to rely on poorly developed software solutions from a variety of sources to accomplish a host of tasks. The following all had to be done separately:
• Vendor document management
• Certificate of Insurance (COI) and third-party contractor compliance tracking
• Vendor, supplier and third-party subcontractor financial risks protection
On top of the related costs of technology infrastructure, multiple subscription fees and additional staff requirements, integrating and customizing all solutions just wasn’t possible.
Vertikal noticed the issue, which is why we made the decision to unite our solutions to create our integrated risk management platform. With Vertikal’s new platform, business customers can access and customize the services they need, whether that’s just one solution, such as CertFocus, or a combination of two or more solutions, such as PreQual and CertFocus. By uniting our risk management solutions on one platform, we can deliver unparalleled results for our clients.
CertFocus allows businesses to create a culture of vendor compliance. Its powerful software solution makes it easy to collect, organize, review and monitor COIs and endorsements for an entire corporate network of third-party vendors, contractors and suppliers. CertFocus dynamic software leverages Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and machine learning technologies to provide businesses with impressive capabilities:
• Alerts, notifications and confirmations
• Multiple reporting and dashboard configurations
• Collaboration and cross-referencing
• Visible carrier insurance ratings

PreQual delivers an enhanced level of transparency to business third-party relationships.

Our integrated risk management platform allows businesses to configure a solution that works for the entire organization, including for CEOs and CFOs, supply chain management, procurement and liability management.
