Vendor & Contractor Management Toolkit

Setting clear expectations with external vendors and contractors, evaluating performance without waiting for an annual review, and a companion tracker.

Setting clear expectations with external vendors and contractors, evaluating performance without waiting for an annual review, and a companion tracker.

Managing an external vendor, agency, or contractor relationship is a real part of many managers' jobs and rarely gets covered in leadership content. This toolkit covers setting clear scope, deliverables, and decision rights upfront, a lightweight ongoing performance-evaluation approach, and addressing scope creep or missed deliverables directly and early. The companion tracker holds your full vendor roster with contract dates, performance ratings per period, and a flag for contracts approaching renewal. Instant digital download.

Includes: Guide (.docx) + Vendor & Contractor Tracker (.xlsx)
