The Vetting Process

Here's how we vet every tech vendor before they're matched with IT buyers on TechnologyMatch. Our rigorous process ensures only the highest quality partners reach our platform.

1

Distributor-Backed Screening

We start with a foundation of trust. Many of our partners come through trusted global distributors like Arrow Electronics, TD Synnex, and Ingram Micro.

  • Rigorous vendor certification validation
  • Technical capabilities assessment
  • Financial stability verification
  • Proven delivery track record
2

Initial Review

We assess key details like ideal customer profile, industry focus, technology stack, and case studies. We look for vendors who solve real problems—not just pitch software.

  • Ideal customer profile analysis
  • Industry focus evaluation
  • Technology stack assessment
  • Case study verification
3

Qualification Interview

Our team speaks directly with a founder or sales leader to evaluate sales process quality, responsiveness, buyer alignment, and cultural fit.

  • Sales process quality assessment
  • Responsiveness evaluation
  • Buyer alignment verification
  • Cultural fit analysis
4

Proof & Performance Validation

We verify client stories, review third-party ratings, and ask the hard questions. If it's all smoke and mirrors, they don't make it through.

  • Client story verification
  • Third-party rating reviews
  • Performance evidence validation
  • Reference checks
5

Taster Campaign or Pilot Match

When possible, we test performance in real-world scenarios. If the vendor can't follow up with professionalism or deliver value, we cut ties fast.

  • Real-world performance testing
  • Professionalism evaluation
  • Value delivery assessment
  • Follow-up responsiveness
6

Ongoing QA & Buyer Feedback

We monitor every engagement. If a vendor ghosts a lead, gets negative feedback, or violates trust, they're removed. No exceptions.

  • Continuous engagement monitoring
  • Buyer feedback analysis
  • Trust violation detection
  • Performance accountability
