The iluminr platform delivers microsimulations of risk situations to pressure test an organization's policy, action plans and organizational responsibilities.

SYDNEY and DENVER, Oct. 16, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- iluminr, the trailblazer in gamified engagement for resilience, today announced it has been included in the 2023 Gartner "Cool Vendors" in Sourcing and Procurement Technology.

According to Gartner, "Sourcing and procurement leads the supply chain risk management effort in more than half of organizations we surveyed. Respondents plan to be more proactive and better prepared for disruption over the next two to three years." Gartner recommends "[leaders] build an awareness of risk and resilience in [their] organization by proactively communicating, providing training on risk management and resilience activities, and not waiting until a disruptive event occurs."

"At iluminr, we're committed to empowering organizations to not only manage risks but also foster collaborative relationships with their critical suppliers, turning challenges into opportunities for growth and resilience."

Post this

"iluminr is gaining significant traction helping companies better manage third party risk by building the collaborative muscle memory for response," said Joshua Shields, CEO of iluminr.

"We believe that being named a Gartner 'Cool Vendor' further validates not only the market need, but also the impactful solution that we have created. We will continue to strengthen and expand our offerings to help customers collaboratively test response strategies, effectively respond to disruption, and learn from these experiences with critical suppliers and third parties."

iluminr uses simulations to test an organization's policies, plans, and roles. This helps organizations become more aware of and evaluate their strategies for managing third party and supplier risk, resilience, compliance, and business continuity. During disruptions, organizations and third parties use the same platform to capture and respond to events as they happen, providing insights on how to improve response over time.

iluminr empowers organizations to:

  • Enhance Third Party Assessment:‥iluminr's platform helps to facilitate ongoing 3rd party incident response and capability testing, providing insights on demonstrated strengths and vulnerabilities.
  • Enhance Supplier Collaboration: The platform fosters closer collaboration with suppliers, ensuring transparency on resilience posture, and enabling organizations to build stronger, more mutually beneficial response capabilities.
  • Improve Resilience: iluminr's capabilities help organizations gain control over third party vulnerabilities, test their response strategies, identify cost-saving opportunities, and drive risk awareness into strategic sourcing initiatives.
  • Boost Compliance: iluminr enables organizations to meet regulatory requirements and internal policies for vendor assessment, scenario testing, and audit, ensuring risk-aware sourcing and management practices.

Marcus Vaughan, Co-Founder, and Chief Growth Officer at iluminr, added,

"Third-party and supplier engagement is the cornerstone of effective risk management. At iluminr, we're committed to empowering organizations to not only manage risks but also foster collaborative relationships with their critical suppliers, turning challenges into opportunities for growth and resilience."
