Every vendor. Tracked. Rated. Accountable.

PartnerPULSE gives clients the oversight and influence to ensure their vendors deliver on promises, stay sharp, and remain aligned to business outcomes.

What is PartnerPULSE?

PartnerPLUS is Observer Solutions' vendor accountability framework—deployed alongside or independently of OBSESS. It formalises the way we:

  • Track vendor performance

  • Measure follow-through

  • Share market signals

  • Influence renewal and roadmap decisions

How?

  • Outcomes Agreed
    We align with both client and vendor on the specific commercial or technical outcomes that matter — not vague intentions, but clear, measurable results.

  • Constructive Oversight
    We attend QBRs, monitor KPIs, and flag issues early. We’re not adversarial — but we are unflinching in pressing vendors to follow through. We act as your proxy when needed.

  • Performance Scoring
    Each vendor is scored on delivery, responsiveness, and roadmap alignment — using consistent criteria and cool-board benchmarking.

  • Market Signal Sharing
    We draw on insight across sectors to inform decisions — bringing peer context into each vendor review.

  • Outcomes Realised
    Vendors that deliver earn trust, traction, and renewals. Those that don’t, don’t. PartnerPULSE makes this transparent — and fair.
