Stimulus was founded by Tiffanie Stanard, when she saw the need to build more valuable supplier relationships and level the playing field for all companies to receive business opportunities. Stimulus is based in Philadelphia, PA and provides a cloud-based software to customers across the U.S.

The focus of the software seems to be a way to discover, evaluate  and collaborate with suppliers.  I noticed in particular that it allowed suppliers to be held to diversity and sustainability standards that are increasingly important to many buyers.
