MYVENDORCENTER.COM BECOMES FIRST FREE COMPLIANCE SOFTWARE BY ADDING FREE VENDOR ACCOUNTS

CACM affiliate member MyVendorCenter.com ® , a popular online program for vendor compliance and project bidding, is now offering a free account option for vendors. Property managers and management firms have always been able to use MyVendorCenter for free – now vendors can too.

Vendors have access to project management tools including document storage, invitations to projects, a proposal response system, compliance status notifications, the ability to share compliance documents with any client, and more. The only difference with a free account is that a vendor’s compliance documents will not be reviewed by MyVendorCenter’s compliance team. This “unverified” status is clearly labeled for managers who may set compliance verification as a requirement – which costs vendors $99/year, unlike similar services that charge by the client, per project, or include referral fees.
