Live Breaking News & Updates on Deployed matters

This Spend Matters Vendor Analysis provides an overview of Deployed and its solutions for Statement of Work (SOW). SOW drafting traditionally starts once a supplier bid has been accepted and the business is ready to move forward with work. The business requestor and Sourcing or Procurement go back and forth (usually several times) to ensure the draft reflects the work being requested. Then, the SOW goes to several other stakeholders — legal, finance, risk, etc. — for more iterations of edits and reviews before finalization. All this back and forth can be time consuming and painful as requirements are written legal jargon — especially for the business requestors who may not spend a lot of time dealing with contract writing or legal jargon in their day-to-day work. Also, the scope and requirements can become muddied as the various groups make siloed edits to fit the SOW to each of their department’s unique needs and guidelines. Deployed addresses the above pain points by taking a different approach to SOW authoring. Deployed’s partners realized that if the process began before sending the supplier bid request and a solution were to help users define the scope with autonomous language, the pain of writing an SOW would be almost entirely removed. Deployed focuses on starting the draft in the planning phase, which allows its software to piece together components of the SOW while the business requestor is forming their request. It also breaks down the traditional departmental silos that cause the back-and-forth changes by guiding the change request process and unifying language through an AI-driven Q&A process. This Vendor Analysis explores Deployed’s platform and application and supporting systems. It also delivers a competitive market analysis and concludes with key analyst takeaways. Here’s why Deployed Matters: To the market — Deployed simplifies the SOW writing process for all stakeholders involved by beginning the draft during the planning of a request instead of waiting until after a bid has been accepted.
