Top New York Based Fashion Brand Selects Aravo

Aravo to Power Global Third Party Risk and Compliance Program

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., July 31, 2015 – Aravo Solutions, Inc., the leading provider of cloud-based Third Party Risk and Compliance solutions, announced today the signing of a multi-year agreement with a $3.3 billion New York based fashion brand to power their global third party risk and compliance program. The program is a critical component of the organization’s broader procurement automation initiative.

Aravo will be utilized to mitigate third party risk by collecting, validating and assessing third party information. The solution will fully automate the company’s current inefficient, manual processes. Third parties that represent elevated risk will undergo extensive assessment and validation to ensure they meet the company’s established guidelines and standards. Once approved, Aravo will pass third parties to a recently selected procure-to-pay solution for onboarding.

Aravo’s newest customer is globally recognized and a respected fashion brand known for innovative design, premium clothing, hand bags and accessories. The firm has rapidly grown to more than 200 retail locations in North America and over 100 internationally. The company sought a user-friendly solution that could be rapidly configured and deployed, from a technology provider with a proven track record of customer success. The customer also sought to leverage Aravo’s library of pre-built content and process templates, allowing them to deploy and go live far more rapidly than competing solutions.

“Aravo is delighted to add another globally recognized brand to our client roster” said Aravo CEO Michael Saracini. “The substantial investments we have made to support the rapid deployment of our Third Party Risk and Compliance solution are now paying dividends for our customers. We look forward to another successful implementation and happy client.”
