HACKENSACK, N.J - September 16, 2025 – StafferLink, a Smartlinx company, announced today that its StafferLinkVMS platform has been ranked the #1 healthcare-specific Vendor Management System (VMS) in Staffing Industry Analysts’ (SIA) newly released VMS Global Landscape & Differentiators 2025 report.
SIA's report separates healthcare VMS platforms from horizontal, cross-industry tools to address the healthcare industry's complex regulatory and dynamic staffing needs. StafferLinkVMS secured the top position among leading healthcare solutions.
The report highlighted the platform’s standout features[1], including:
- Cloud-based, multi-tenant platform supporting a total healthcare talent spend, which enables suppliers to align more broadly and efficiently with multiple client accounts through a single secure login.
“This recognition from SIA underscores our commitment to helping healthcare organizations solve workforce challenges with innovative, purpose-built technology,” said Mark Stoever, CEO of Smartlinx, parent company to StafferLink. “StafferLinkVMS empowers customers to fill shifts faster, lower labor costs, and enhance workflows. The platform is engineered specifically for healthcare, and we’re proud to be recognized as a leader delivering differentiated solutions that truly move the industry forward.”
The ranking follows Smartlinx’s strategic acquisition of StafferLink earlier this year, strengthening its position as the market leader in healthcare workforce and vendor management solutions.
StafferLinkVMS continues to undergo a series of enhancements to further strengthen its market leadership, including integrating AI for predictive redeployment, expanding chatbot and self-service capabilities, refining dashboards and credential reporting, and broadening mobile access to match the successful mobile experience of the ASM product. Additional updates will enhance API connectivity for greater integration flexibility and introduce expanded agency management features, including rate review and compliance tracking.
The SIA VMS Global Landscape & Differentiators 2025 report is widely regarded as the industry’s most comprehensive evaluation of vendor management systems, combining provider self-assessments, in-depth platform demonstrations, and client feedback.
