Avetta adds Epigroup, Unimarket & Wakata partnerships. Tue, 8th Sep 2026 (Today) Avetta has partnered with Epigroup, Unimarket and Wakata, adding three companies to its supply-chain partner network. The agreements span safety consulting, procurement software and field operations management, broadening the support available to clients and suppliers in higher-risk industries. Perth-based Epigroup focuses on workplace safety services, including psychosocial risk, technical safety staffing and digital tools designed to improve workplace culture and frontline safety practices. Under the partnership, Avetta and Epigroup will work on a more people-focused approach to safety oversight. This includes supporting customers managing psychosocial risk and strengthening safety culture across contractor and supplier environments. Another agreement brings Unimarket into Avetta's network. Unimarket provides source-to-pay software, now integrated with Avetta so procurement teams can access supplier readiness, risk and compliance information within sourcing and buying workflows. The integration brings verified supplier data closer to purchasing decisions, linking procurement activity with contractor and supplier checks that are often handled in separate systems. For organisations with large supplier bases, that could affect how quickly they assess vendors and move contracts forward. "Our partnership with Avetta helps bring supplier readiness, risk and compliance data into the procurement workflows where sourcing and buying decisions are made," said Dale Burgess, Director of ANZ Partnerships at Unimarket. "By connecting Avetta's supplier intelligence with Unimarket's source-to-pay platform, organisations can gain greater clarity and control and make more informed decisions across the supplier lifecycle and buying journey," Burgess said. Wakata, the third new partner, focuses on compliance and governance in field operations. Its work includes worker assessments and the management of plant and equipment, areas tied closely to day-to-day activity on worksites and in operational settings. Through the partnership, Avetta's compliance processes will be linked more directly with field-level oversight. The companies said this would create a more connected approach to contractor compliance, worker readiness, assessments and asset management. That reflects a broader shift among companies seeking to combine procurement, compliance and operational monitoring rather than treat them as stand-alone functions. In sectors such as construction, energy, mining and industrial services, the strength of those links can shape both risk control and the speed at which work is approved to begin. Scott Spencer, Senior Vice President of Alliances at Avetta, said the company was extending the range of specialist support available through its broader ecosystem. "At Avetta, we're committed to building a connected ecosystem that helps our clients and suppliers stay ready for whatever comes next," Spencer said. "By bringing together trusted partners with specialised expertise, we're expanding the support available to organisations as they strengthen safety, manage risk and improve operational performance. Whether through deeper platform capabilities or access to expert services, these partnerships help close the work readiness gap and keep work moving forward." Broader scope The three partnerships show how supplier management platforms are expanding beyond prequalification and documentation checks into adjacent areas such as procurement integration, workforce assessment and field asset oversight. Companies buying these services increasingly want a single view of supplier readiness that extends from onboarding to activity on site. Avetta serves more than 360,000 businesses in over 120 countries. Its platform covers compliance, prequalification, safety and performance benchmarking, giving it a large installed base from which to add partners and integrations. For Unimarket, the relationship offers a route into organisations looking to embed risk and compliance checks inside purchasing processes rather than run them in parallel. For Epigroup and Wakata, it links advisory and operational tools to a broader network of hiring clients and contractors already using Avetta. Field link Wakata's role in the partnership points to growing attention on what happens after supplier approval. Many businesses now want evidence that approved contractors, individual workers and equipment in the field remain aligned with the standards set during onboarding and procurement. "Our partnership with Avetta connects supply-chain compliance and governance with the realities of work in the field," said Emmy-Clare Rule, Director at Wakata. "Bringing together worker readiness, asset and equipment management with connected assessment records helps organisations see what matters and act with greater confidence. We're looking forward to being part of the Connection Centre in Sydney, where we can connect with organisations across the Avetta community and share practical perspectives on making work safer."

Avetta appoints Lynda Richards as APAC health chief. Wed, 26th Aug 2026 (Today) Avetta has appointed Lynda Richards as APAC Principal, Health and Safety, expanding its health and safety leadership in the region. Richards will work across Avetta's Risk Advisory, Product Management, and regional leadership teams. She will support the company's health and safety efforts in Asia-Pacific and contribute to product and service development for contractor management and supply chain risk. The appointment adds an executive with experience in governance, contractor management, and operational risk from roles at Sydney Airport, Qantas, Thales, and CBRE. That background is expected to inform Avetta's work with businesses managing complex supply chains in sectors including aviation, infrastructure, defence, and property. Her remit includes helping address work readiness gaps across supply chains. The hire is part of a broader effort to add more industry experience to teams focused on risk and safety issues. Avetta provides compliance, prequalification, safety, and performance benchmarking tools through a single platform used by hiring clients and suppliers. Its network includes more than 360,000 companies in over 120 countries. Richards will report to Scott DeBow, Director, Health and Safety, at Avetta. The role sits within the company's Risk Advisory practice, which combines health and safety, procurement, and environmental, social and governance expertise with data from its customer and supplier network. Regional focus The hire signals a continued focus on the Asia-Pacific market, where businesses face growing scrutiny over contractor oversight, operational risk, and supply chain resilience. Companies across infrastructure, transport, and property have been under pressure to improve how they assess suppliers and monitor on-site safety performance. For software and advisory providers in this market, recruiting leaders with direct operational experience has become a common approach. Businesses want advice and systems shaped by people who have managed risk and contractor relationships inside large organisations, rather than by product teams alone. Richards pointed to that operational background in comments on the appointment. "Having worked on the client side, I'm very familiar with the implementation and operational processes that go hand-in-hand with adopting new technologies," she said. "I'm excited to bring those insights and knowledge to Avetta so we can deliver improved and aligned outcomes for our customers, helping them build stronger, more resilient supply chains to drive long-term success." Her client-side experience may be particularly relevant for organisations trying to introduce new compliance and safety systems without disrupting established procurement and operations processes. In large supply chains, the challenge often lies not only in collecting supplier data but also in ensuring contractors, site managers, and procurement teams use the same standards. Advisory team Luke Boyle, Vice President of APAC Operations at Avetta, linked the appointment to customer demand in the region for stronger approaches to safety and risk oversight. "We're thrilled to welcome Lynda to Avetta," Boyle said. "Lynda's expertise in these specialist areas will be invaluable as we focus on increasing safety and risk maturity throughout the supply chain in APAC. For our local customers, having someone of Lynda's calibre on board is going to be transformative for the way they interact with Avetta's solutions." Avetta has built its business around helping clients assess whether suppliers meet required standards before they begin work, while also tracking ongoing compliance and performance. Adding Richards suggests the company sees a need to pair those tools more closely with regional operational knowledge as clients respond to changing expectations around contractor governance. The appointment also highlights the importance of health and safety expertise in supply chain software markets that have broadened from compliance checks into wider risk management. As companies seek better visibility over contractors and suppliers, executives with experience across safety, governance, and operations are becoming more prominent in product, advisory, and customer-facing roles. Richards joins Avetta after holding roles in organisations where contractor oversight and operational continuity are central concerns, including airports, airlines, defence, and commercial property. Those sectors share a reliance on large supplier networks and strict safety requirements, making them a useful testing ground for systems designed to identify and manage risk.
