VendorConnect today announced the launch of its open-source platform designed to transform how Australian businesses manage external vendors, projects, and deliverables. Built with modern frameworks and available on GitHub, VendorConnect empowers organisations to collaborate more effectively with contractors, standardise workflows, and ensure consistency across distributed teams.

At its core, VendorConnect provides a user-friendly vendor portal that integrates project oversight, vendor management, and task standardisation into a single ecosystem. By reducing friction in working with external partners, the platform helps businesses save time, maintain compliance with client requirements, and strengthen supply chain and service delivery performance.

Built for Modern Business
VendorConnect v1.0 ships with a modern UI, role-based access controls, and portfolio management tools. It adapts seamlessly to industries ranging from marketing agencies managing creative contractors, to operations teams standardising vendor onboarding and compliance.
Powered by Laravel 10, Next.js 14, and MySQL, the platform is engineered for performance, reliability, and scalability. With its MIT-licensed open-source release, VendorConnect is both accessible for small teams and extensible for enterprises.
A Local Solution with Global Alignment
While designed with the Australian market in mind, VendorConnect reflects best practices in global vendor collaboration. Its modular approach allows suppliers, contractors, and agencies to align with international compliance standards (including GS1 labeling, where required) without building complex systems in-house.
