Finding and buying what you need from compliant suppliers should be easy, whether it’s through your own agency contracts or through other public sector contracts (AKA “piggyback contracts”). Yet many public sector procurement processes can involve paper, email, and/or outdated technology, making it time-consuming, complicated, and costly.
By creating a consumer-like, one-stop marketplace for multiple purchasing categories sold by trusted suppliers, Varis saves you money and ensures compliance by increasing the amount of spending conducted through competitively awarded and approved contracts. Buyers also spend less time
navigating complex procurement processes, including issuing costly and time-consuming Request for Proposals (RFPs), which lowers administrative costs, helps to improve regulatory compliance, and gives buyers more time to focus on mission delivery.
Better Control and Visibility
In addition to lowering costs, Varis gives you better control and visibility into spending to support overall transparency and accountability to taxpayers, auditors, and other key stakeholders. Digitization and automation not only increase efficiency in procurement and finance, but also let you see your entire
spend – across departments and locations, regardless of purchase size – with the touch of a button.
With proven technology and led by experienced B2B sourcing thought leaders, Varis allows you to meet your competition requirements and simplifies how you connect, contract, and transact — helping to keep your organization efficient and focused on your mission.
