Covendis, the leader in Vendor Management Solutions (VMS) and Managed Services Programs (MSP) for the commercial and public sectors, currently manages the State of Georgia’s temporary staffing for Information Technology (IT). In the November 2010 issue of “Supply Chain Management Review”, Brad Douglas, the State of Georgia’s Commissioner, Department of Administrative Services (DOAS) cited IT staffing rate reductions of fifteen percent (15%), one of the State’s major accomplishments in its procurement transformation initiative.
Raymond Tsao, Covendis’ President and Chief Executive Officer stated “We are extremely pleased that we have been able to effectively partner with our clients in bringing about real change along with significant hard dollar savings. The taxpayers are the real beneficiaries when our clients are able to use their dollars more efficiently in delivering critical and important services. What is impressive is that Covendis has been able to produce these savings without having to apply rate cards, which many organizations have found to be problematic and restricting. The Covendis VMS and MSP programs are highly innovative and are able to effectively and efficiently bring competition to the process of procuring services in an easy-to-use solution without a lot of bells and whistles which, in our experience, generally don’t work.”
