# State of Flux named to 2019 Spend Matters Providers to Know: The best-in-class companies in procurement and supply chain
By State of Flux
April 10, 2019
State of Flux is delighted to announce that we have been named for the first year on the [Spend Matters 50 Procurement Providers to Know list](https://spendmatters.com/almanac/50-to-know-2019/?inf_contact_key=2cfc6be35f4e3c95380a6b5c2eb4f8ac842e902fbefb79ab9abae13bfcb46658). In the last five years, State of Flux has been featured in the Spend Matters lists for Providers to Watch four times. Thank you to the[Spend M](https://spendmatters.com/almanac/50-to-know-2019/?inf_contact_key=2cfc6be35f4e3c95380a6b5c2eb4f8ac842e902fbefb79ab9abae13bfcb46658)[atters Network](https://www.linkedin.com/company/331315/).
The recognition highlights State of Flux's supplier relationship management services offering as a stand-out compared to its peers , meriting recognition as a Provider to Know.
Each year the 50 Providers to Know list recognises the best-in-class companies in the procurement and supply chain market. These firms lead the charge on new procurement technologies and services, setting the industry standard. Vendors listed are independently selected by the analyst team over multiple rounds of debate, focusing on factors such as innovation, market presence, tech competency, and solution delivery.
> 'We are very proud and honoured to make the Spend Matters 50 to Know list this year. We have been focusing on making Supplier Management a mainstream discipline whilst trying to delight and deliver to clients for over 15 years now. Typically this means our team is focused on the task at hand or trying to develop what’s next in Supplier Management without looking at the great progress made.
> Getting such great recognition from Spend Matters means that we can take a little time out to pause and reflect on the progress made on this journey. So, thank you Spend Matters and thank you to all the State of Flux team, past and present for your hard work and dedication in helping us achieve this recognition.' Alan Day, Chairman and Founder, State of Flux
