Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Workday VNDLY: Workday acquired VNDLY in 2022 to bring vendor management system (VMS) capabilities directly into the Workday HCM suite. VNDLY is the most direct competitor to SAP Fieldglass in cloud-based contingent workforce management for the enterprise.
• Magnit: Magnit (formerly IQNavigator) is a leading pure-play VMS and Managed Service Provider (MSP) platform for contingent workforce management. It directly competes with SAP Fieldglass on enterprise VMS, MSP program delivery, and total talent management.
• Beeline: Beeline is one of the original VMS platforms (founded 1999), serving large enterprises and MSP-led programs for contingent labor and services procurement. It is a long-standing direct competitor to Fieldglass, particularly in MSP-led engagements.

Broad incumbents

• Workday: Workday is a leading cloud HCM and finance suite whose acquisition of VNDLY placed it in direct competition with SAP Fieldglass. Workday represents the broader enterprise HCM incumbent increasingly bundling VMS into core suites.
• Coupa Software: Coupa is a cloud-based business spend management (BSM) platform covering procurement, expenses, and supplier management. While it does not specialize in VMS, its broad spend management suite overlaps with Fieldglass's source-to-pay-adjacent capabilities for enterprise buyers.
• UKG (Ultimate Kronos Group): UKG is a major workforce management and HCM provider. Its Dimensions and Ready suites include time tracking, scheduling, and absence management that overlap with SAP SuccessFactors Workforce Management modules bundled alongside Fieldglass.
• ServiceNow HR Service Delivery: ServiceNow's HR Service Delivery and NowAssist AI offerings are increasingly used by enterprises for employee and contingent worker service workflows. While not a VMS per se, ServiceNow competes with the broader SAP Fieldglass / SuccessFactors footprint inside shared enterprise IT and HR buyers.

Others

• SAP Ariba: SAP Ariba is the sibling source-to-pay platform within SAP's intelligent spend management portfolio. While not a direct VMS competitor, Ariba overlaps with Fieldglass on supplier management, sourcing, and procurement, and the two are tightly integrated as complementary SAP products.

Emerging players

• Procurify: Procurify is a mid-market procurement and spend management platform. While not a direct VMS competitor, it addresses the mid-market segment that SAP Fieldglass does not serve, representing an emerging threat at the lower end of the market.
• Avature: Avature provides a talent acquisition and CRM platform used by global enterprises for contingent workforce, internal mobility, and recruitment. It competes with Fieldglass at the edges of talent management and external workforce profile management.
