8 Ways the myTrack Platform Differs from a Vendor Management System(VMS)

Can your VMS ensure you are paying your contractors correctly?

A vendor management system (VMS) is an application to procure and manage staffing services for contingent workers. The complexity of maintaining consistent contract terms, conditions, and rates and schedules across multiple locations and thousands of contractors/vendors extends well beyond the scope of a VMS. Our myTrack Platform is the market leader in true real-time contractor billable hours management that allows owners to agree and authorize their supplier's invoices. More importantly, invoices are true and accurate, eliminating millions of dollars in overspend. A VMS could help businesses source contractors, but myTrack will will ensure they maintain compliance and are paid based upon what they have earned. 

VMS's certainly have a place in helping to procure labor services. However, they are not equipped to enforce the terms, conditions, rates, and schedules of the contract that apply to these services. Owners lose millions of dollars a day by paying at gross hours versus net billable hours. The myTrack Platform is the premier contractor management solution used at over 300 industrial sites, including over 90% of North American refining capacity. 

Here are 8 ways our myTrack Platform differs from a VMS:

1. We specialize in managing craft labor, equipment, and materials by vendor using myTrack pay formula and schedules.
2. myTrack  manages all contractor labor, equipment and material terms, conditions, rates and schedules. 
3. Owners can achieve optimal usage fees for equipment on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis per vendor through automated contract rate enforcement. 
4. Our contractor management platform enables owners to breakout routine maintenance, STO projects, and capital project agreements every day per contractor. 
5. We enable owners to track transit time by calculating the distance/time/costs per contractor between multiple work/site locations. 
6. Owners can allocate across multiple vendor crafts/rates per contractor per shift.
7. Owners can calculate spend/progress across projects or work orders for labor, equipment, and materials per contractor. 
8. myTrack calculates accurate invoices for each worker, based on what is actually earned versus presumed earned.
