Spend Matters: Exiger Named Value Leader in Fall 2025 SolutionMap (Third Consecutive Report)

Exiger Earns Category’s Highest Functional Scores in Third Party Risk Management and Supply Chain Risk Management

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Exiger, a leading AI-powered supply chain intelligence platform and a significant technology provider to the U.S. Federal Government, has been recognized as a top-ranked procurement technology vendor in Spend Matters™ Fall 2025 SolutionMap. This assessment, covering 115 vendors, marks the third consecutive time Exiger has earned the title of Value Leader.

“We’re honored to be recognized once again by Spend Matters,” said Exiger CEO Brandon Daniels. “This recognition mirrors what we’re consistently hearing from our customers, namely, the critical need for clarity, speed, and confidence in procurement and supply chain decision-making. At Exiger, our mission is to deliver precisely that advantage through AI-driven solutions, empowering organizations to not only effectively manage risk, but also to identify opportunities for enhanced efficiency and business resilience.”

Specifically, Exiger received the highest functional scores in both Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) and Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) categories within the Spend Matters Fall 2025 SolutionMap. Furthermore, Exiger achieved the highest overall score among all vendors evaluated for Supply Chain Risk Management.

According to Carina Kuhl, CEO of Spend Matters, a Hackett Group Division, “Many organizations underestimate the time it takes for procurement teams to align stakeholders, define requirements, create RFPs, and secure budget approvals for procurement technology, even when the value proposition is clear. This process can often dominate their day-to-day tasks and create significant organizational stress.”

Pierre Mitchell, Distinguished Analyst at Spend Matters, a Hackett Group Division, added: “Beyond basic feature comparisons, we evaluate the underlying platform components to discern genuine capabilities from marketing hype. While some users prioritize configurability, others have different priorities. Our SolutionMap framework considers diverse buyer needs in relation to factors such as AI deployment, user experience, and the utilization of low-code platforms. By providing this holistic view, SolutionMap empowers procurement teams with the necessary information to make informed decisions.”

The SolutionMap evaluation methodology combines detailed requests for information (RFIs) and technical assessments with verified customer ratings. This rigorous approach aims for transparent, data-driven comparisons, enabling organizations to select the most suitable technology partners. The Hackett Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: HCKT), a leading Gen AI strategic consulting and executive advisory firm, publishes the Spend Matters SolutionMap biannually. The assessment evaluates vendors across 500+ detailed functional and capability assessment criteria within 16 source-to-pay categories, incorporating mandatory demos and anonymized customer ratings.

This latest recognition builds upon Exiger’s recent achievements in 2025. The company was named a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Supplier Risk Management Solutions and a Leader in Omdia’s Market Radar: Firmware and Software Supply Chain Security. Exiger also secured the highest ranking among unrestricted vendor awardees in the Government Services Administration’s $919 million Blanket Purchase Agreement for Supply Chain Risk Illumination Professional Tools and Services (SCRIPTS). These accolades further solidify Exiger’s position as a frontrunner in the rapidly evolving landscape of supply chain risk management technology.
