RIMS Feature Highlight Vendor Management

RIMS™ helps you manage relationships with all your real estate due diligence service providers, including appraisers, environmental and construction consulatants, and more.

Maintain detailed records of your vendor’s contact information and state certifications (appraisers). Control vendor access – only RIMS™ users that you authorize are permitted to login to RIMS™.

Track vendor histories and performance. RIMS™’ Vendor Service Report displays all activities related to one or more selected vendors within a specified date range.

Do you know what a vendor’s average fee is, or average turn time? Do you know how many assignments were awarded to a select vendor over the past 12 months?

These questions and more can be answered quickly through standard RIMS™ reports. RIMS™ keeps track of transaction details so that you don’t have to! Vendor scorecards allow you to rate a vendor on each job; keep track of late deliveries or poor performance to fine-tune your vendor list. Reward those vendors that perform well with increased bidding opportunities.

Vendor service areas can be defined in advance to expedite candidate selection for a new RFP. Service areas are location-based, with further filters available for property type / sub-type, transaction size and special programs.

Let your vendors assist you in keeping track. Vendors may maintain their own contact information and state certifications through their dedicated interface.

Enhanced communication and targeted bidding opportunities will improve vendor relations and lead to better work product, shorter turn times, and maybe even lower fees.
