Yes. FacilityOS integrates directly with Avetta, so the two don't have to be an either/or decision. Avetta can remain your system of record for qualifying contractors and suppliers, while FacilityOS becomes the enforcement layer: VisitorOS automatically validates a contractor's Avetta compliance status at check-in, flagging or denying anyone whose standing has lapsed, and then feeds their on-site presence into EmergencyOS for real-time mustering. In other words, Avetta tells you who should be allowed on-site, and FacilityOS enforces that at the door and accounts for them during an emergency — the operational layer Avetta's network model doesn't cover on its own. For teams not already invested in Avetta, ContractorOS delivers verification and enforcement natively, without the network-fee model.

Avetta earns its reputation for the scale of its supplier network and its strength in procurement and supply-chain risk monitoring. Where FacilityOS pulls ahead is the operational layer: contractor compliance that's enforced at site entry rather than verified in a central database, native integration with visitor management and emergency mustering, turnkey kiosk hardware, and a faster path to go-live. If the question is "are this supplier's documents current across our network?", Avetta answers it well. If the question is "can a non-compliant contractor get onto our floor right now?", only FacilityOS answers it by design.

The most useful question is who owns the problem. If contractor compliance is primarily a procurement and supply-chain risk program — and you need a large pre-vetted supplier pool with centralized ESG and financial monitoring — Avetta is a credible network. If contractor compliance is an operational and security problem owned by site managers, facility teams, and security leads — where verification has to happen at the gate, contractors must be accounted for in emergencies, and compliance spans ITAR, GMP, FSMA, and CTPAT as well as OSHA — FacilityOS is the more defensible long-term decision.

Yes. FacilityOS is an AI-powered platform with automated document workflows, expiration management, and real-time notifications across ContractorOS — plus Beacon AI capabilities across the platform. The difference isn't whether AI reviews documents; it's what happens after review. In FacilityOS, an approved or expired status immediately changes what happens when that contractor arrives at your facility.

No. FacilityOS is a client-funded platform — your contractors aren't charged a network fee to be compliant with you. Avetta operates a network model in which suppliers and contractors typically pay recurring fees to join and maintain their standing, a cost that appears regularly in user reviews and can create friction with the contractors you rely on.

With Avetta, compliance records live in the supplier network — there is no integrated, real-time accountability for who is physically on-site. With FacilityOS, contractor check-in data feeds directly into EmergencyOS, enabling digital roll calls, two-way communication, building sweeps, and automated drill reporting. For audited facilities, that integration is the difference between having records and having accountability.

Yes — and this is one of FacilityOS's structural advantages. Start with ContractorOS, then add VisitorOS for check-in, EmergencyOS for evacuation and drill readiness, LogisticsOS for mailroom and asset management, or SecurityOS for physical identity and access control — all within the same platform, without switching vendors or migrating data. Avetta expansion deepens your supply-chain risk program; FacilityOS expansion deepens your control over the facility itself.

No — and that's an honest scope difference. Avetta's network is built for discovering and qualifying new suppliers at scale; if sourcing from a large pre-vetted pool is your primary requirement, Avetta is worth evaluating for that. FacilityOS is built for the contractors and vendors already coming to your sites: verifying them before entry, enforcing requirements at the door, and accounting for everyone on-site.
