Jim Lanzalotto said the combined SAP and Ariba entity will create a unique offering. reported it will acquire Taleo Corp., a provider of talent management software, including an applicant tracking system for staffing firms. IBM announced in December it was buying VMS provider Emptoris Inc. The deal is the latest of several large IT firms acquiring companies in the talent and procurement space. The deal could also be a strategic buy for SAP because a number of Ariba customers use Peoplesoft, Peña said. “I think this acquisition has more to do with SAP trying to beef up its procurement technology offering than contingent labor,” Peña said.Īriba’s total spend, including contingent labor and other categories, is approximately $319 billion, according to the company. However, spend handled by Ariba in the contingent labor/staffing category is dwarfed by the total amount of spend overseen by the company, said Bryan Peña, vice president, contingent workforce strategies and research, at Staffing Industry Analysts. Ariba posted $3.0 billion in statement-of-work spend and $1.7 billion in temp/contract spend in 2010.
Ariba is a Sunnyvale, Calif.-based provider of cloud-based solutions for spend management, including a vendor management system for contingent labor.Īriba ranked as the sixth-largest VMS among systems that provided data in Staffing Industry Analysts’ 2011 VMS and MSP Supplier Competitive Landscape report.
