To enhance our product offering, in 2012, we began working on a similar SaaS-based technology to deliver expert level prequalification of vendors, suppliers and third-party contractors called “PreQual.” To fill a critical need in the market, we backed this solution with expert financial analysis and administrative support. The impact was immediate and positioned PreQual as an industry leader.
