Vendors included in this report underwent a meticulous selection process, which involved an initial screening of their technical and functional capabilities along with client inquiries. Less than 50% of the initially screened vendors were invited to complete a Request for Information (RFI).
The RFI process involved a detailed examination of the vendors’ Supply Chain Finance (SCF) solutions, considering functionality, capabilities, and implementation experience. Subsequently, a demonstration of the platforms was conducted for the evaluation team.
Irrespective of their segment positioning, every company highlighted in this report fulfils the essential criteria of an SCF platform, catering to distinct client needs influenced by factors such as size, geography, or the comprehensiveness of the solution.
Active participation of these selected vendors in the RFI process underscores their commitment to transparency and ensures that the insights presented in this report result from a comprehensive and engaged evaluation process.
