The best incentive from my experience would be a transparent roadmap of work that a service provider could translate into their own "prospect/ pipeline" in a 3 - 6 - 12mth period. They will fill the blank with quality work and trusting relationships to materialise the pipeline.

A dried-up pipeline is the worst nightmare right now for any business. So make it a win-win incentive for your organisation and trusted service delivery partners.

By incentivizing such contributions, you can aim to create an environment that encourages the vendor to think outside the box and actively seek ways to optimize processes and deliver exceptional results.
