IT Strategy & Supplier Management

Your Technology Buyer’s Agent. Your Advocate at the Table. No Cost to You.

Think of YMBS as your realtor for technology—we find the right fit, negotiate the deal, and steer you away from money pits. And like a lawyer in a tough case, we protect your interests, pressure-test claims, and hold suppliers accountable.

You get one point of contact while we coordinate, filter, and vet suppliers (and their third-party implementers/trainers). Suppliers only show up when it’s worth your time—demos, key trainings, and final approvals.

Commission-based, paid by suppliers. Zero cost to you. Independent, client-first advocacy is non-negotiable.

Why Work with Yellow Mountain?

450+ vetted suppliers:

Across cloud, telecom, cybersecurity, data, contact center, and AI—pre-screened for security, capability, delivery record, and references.

We know your business first:

current stack, constraints, and future needs—so recommendations follow best practices, not vendor hype.

We vet the supplier’s suppliers:

Integrators, trainers, and customizers are screened so weak links don’t sink your project.

Master-customer leverage:

We bring suppliers customers; they protect their reputation with us—faster escalation, tighter SLAs, fewer games.

Road-tested:

We’ve implemented these same platforms for multiple clients; we know the hurdles, hidden costs, and fast paths.

No cost to you:

Our role is paid via supplier commission; our standard is advocate-only.

industry reputation to keep vendors honest—at no cost to you.

Are you like a technology realtor?

Yes. We act as your buyer’s agent—finding fit, negotiating value, and preventing expensive mistakes.

If suppliers pay you, are you really independent?

Yes. Our model is commission-based, but our standard is advocate-only: apples-to-apples options, documented trade-offs, and SLAs tied to your KPIs.

Do you vet third-party trainers/customizers?

Absolutely. We evaluate the vendor’s subcontractors with the same rigor as the primary vendor.

Why does your leverage matter?

Because we are a key account that suppliers rely on for repeat business, we carry influence that individual customers don’t. Vendors escalate faster, deliver better service, and avoid shortcuts because protecting their reputation with us is critical.
