A typical Fortune 500 L&D function runs five vendors. None of them is fully accountable for the outcome.
Each vendor does its job. The failure happens in the space between them, in the handoff nobody was paid to own. As priorities shift faster and compliance requirements move faster than procurement cycles, that gap is no longer a coordination inconvenience. It is a capability risk.
This eBook makes the case for rethinking how many vendors your L&D strategy can actually survive.
- Why multi-vendor stacks were built for a pace of business that no longer exists
- Where the real costs of fragmentation hide and why they never show up on an invoice
- A new vendor scorecard built around context retention and accountability, not cost and specialisation
- How to consolidate without creating a bigger single point of failure
- A six-question self-audit you can run this week
You leave with a clear framework for evaluating your current vendor stack and a starting point for the conversation your organisation has not had yet.
The question was never which vendor is best. It is how few handoffs your strategy can actually survive.
