CHICAGO, Jan. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VelocityEHS, the global leader in enterprise EHS & ESG software solutions, announced today it has completed the acquisition of Contractor Compliance, a Canadian-based enterprise safety and risk management software solution provider. The deal adds innovative third-party contractor and vendor compliance capabilities to the award-winning VelocityEHS Accelerate Platform.
Now enterprises in highly regulated industries like manufacturing, food & beverage and pharma have greater access to enterprise quality contractor management software and businesses of every size can easily reduce compliance admin up to 70% vs. traditional third-party management processes.
