How Berger Communities Transformed Vendor Compliance with NetVendor
NetVendor helped Berger Communities eliminate manual vendor compliance tracking across 60 communities in Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland, replacing a binder-based process with automated COI collection, Entrata-integrated compliance enforcement, and streamlined vendor onboarding.
✓ Easiest integration, works seamlessly inside Entrata
✓ Non-compliant vendors blocked from payment
✓ Confidence to scale, no added compliance risk
✓ Fast property onboarding, with. many vendors already enrolled
✓ Hundreds of accounting hours saved on vendor follow-up
Before NetVendor, Berger's vendor compliance process was entirely manual and handled by the accounting team. Staff tracked insurance compliance in a physical binder and had to chase vendors for documents,, compliance couldn't be enforced at the point of payment, and there was no system to flag non-compliant vendors before work was performed. The process didn't scale with the portfolio.
Objectives:
- Replace manual, binder-based compliance tracking with an automated system
- Enforce vendor compliance requirements at the point of payment
- Integrate directly with Entrata so compliance is enforced inside the PMS
- Scale the portfolio without increasing compliance risk
- Onboard new vendors quickly as the portfolio grows
“Our accounting team had to manually track compliance using a binder—it was insane that in 2018, we didn’t have an automated system.”
How Berger Communities Automated Vendor Compliance With NetVendor + Entrata
NetVendor's direct Entrata integration was the deciding factor for Berger Communities. Vendors cannot be paid or used until they are fully compliant, enforced automatically inside the system the team already uses.
“We knew immediately that NetVendor was the best fit. If a system doesn’t integrate easily, we don’t want it. NetVendor was our easiest integration, and it works flawlessly with Entrata.”
Berger Communities’ Improved Efficiency & Reduced Compliance Risk With NetVendor + Entrata
Berger implemented NetVendor Compliance to automate vendor management across its portfolio.
Compliance is now enforced at the point of payment, so non-compliant vendors can't be paid or used at any site.
- Hundreds of Hours Saved
- 99% Risk Reduction
- 100% Site-Level Enforcement

Accounting no longer spends hours chasing vendors.
Vendors cannot be paid or used unless compliant.
New vendors are onboarded quickly and efficiently.
“We are no longer afraid of taking on new vendors when we expand. NetVendor makes it easy—we send out invitations, and many vendors are already in the system. There’s no compliance hesitation.”
