(San Francisco) – October 6, 2020 – Aravo Solutions, a leader in intelligent automation for third-party risk and performance management, has been recognized as a leader by independent analyst research firm Forrester Research, Inc. in The Forrester Wave™: Third Party Risk Management Platforms, Q4 2020, released today.
Aravo is one of only three leaders in this Wave, and this positioning comes on the back of Aravo’s recent recognition as a leader in The Forrester Wave™: Supplier Risk and Performance Management Platforms, Q3 2020. Aravo is the only provider to have been recognized as a leader in both of these reports.
In The Forrester Wave™: Third Party Risk Management Platforms, Q4 2020, 11 of the most significant third-party risk management solution providers were evaluated on 23 criteria that cover current offering, strategy, and market presence. Aravo received the top scores possible in the sourcing and procurement, risk scoring, continuous monitoring, and the planned enhancements criteria. The report noted that “Aravo goes big on maturity-aligned solutions for risk and performance” and goes on to state that: “This approach provides best-practice templates and streamlines deployment”.
“Being recognized as a Leader in both The Forrester Wave™: Third Party Risk Management Platforms, Q4 2020 and The Forrester Wave™: Supplier Risk and Performance Management Platforms, Q3 2020, is extremely impactful.” said Michael Saracini, Chief Executive Officer, Aravo Solutions. “No other provider is in this position. We believe this is testament to the holistic, cross-functional approach we deliver for our global customers across all of their third-party, supplier, and IT vendor risk, compliance, and performance management requirements.”
Eric Hensley, Chief Technology Officer, Aravo Solutions, noted: “Now more than ever organizations need to rapidly respond to emerging risks, and it’s essential that solution providers continue to innovate. In reference to The Forrester Wave™: Third Party Risk Management Platforms, Q4 2020, Hensley said “As a leader, Aravo scored among the top three in the current offering category, but what we think is another important takeaway is that we also received the top score possible in the planned enhancements criterion. This, we believe, reflects our ongoing commitment to ensure our customers are always equipped with the definitive combination of technology and best-practice expertise to remain effective, resilient, and agile.”
The Forrester Wave™ is one of the industry’s most complete and detailed analyses, using a transparent methodology that includes vendor surveys, product demos, and customer reference calls to compare top providers in the market.
