ServiceNow Industry Partner whyaye wins announced winner of inaugural challenge to help procurement leaders address real-world business risks and challenges
Arlington, Va., Oct. 5, 2022 – Interos, a leading AI technology company solving the most challenging supply chain problems worldwide, today announced whyaye, an IT services consultancy, as the winner of Interos’ Inaugural Partner Hackathon. Interos hosted the challenge to celebrate its integration with ServiceNow’s Vendor Risk Management (VRM) application.
The event brought together multiple partners within the ServiceNow community to address one of the biggest issues facing organizations today: achieving operational resilience in an era of perpetual crisis. Supply chains are inherently fragile and not up to the challenge of a fast-moving economy where disruptions come from every direction and cost companies $182M in annual lost revenue.
With the intention of delivering customer value – anchored in insights and action – partners had three weeks to engineer a new ServiceNow workflow that solved a real customer pain point across procurement, supplier onboarding, ESG, Governance, and other supply chain risk management focus areas. ServiceNow and Interos judged submissions based on creativity, potential impact and the quality of the workflow solution leveraging Interos Vendor Risk Management integration.
whyaye’s solution demonstrated how continuous automated monitoring of the extended supply chain helps procurement leaders identify and eliminate risk before it happens – saving enterprises millions of dollars in costly supply shocks. Wrangu, developer of governance, risk, compliance, privacy, and security software, was the runner-up.
“It was exciting to see the strong collaboration as teams came together to address ongoing supply chain risks and challenges,” said Robin Kearon, VP Strategic Partnerships, Interos. “We were honored to have an enthusiastic reception to our first hackathon and were impressed by the creativity and the relevant and immediate business value of the solutions, especially from whyaye. I would like to thank ServiceNow for its careful deliberation, and congratulate whyaye for its winning solution that demonstrates a high-impact utilization of the ServiceNow & Interos integration.”
“We were thrilled to win Interos’s first hackathon,” said Maureen Robson Norman, Co-Founder and CEO of whyaye. “Our whyaye team worked hard to ensure they addressed meaningful risks in a pragmatic way. They also gained sharp insights from the session. We are grateful for the opportunity to be involved and look forward to future collaboration.”
