What is SIGMA?
Statewide Integrated Governmental Management Application (SIGMA), is a major initiative for the State of Michigan, focused on replacement of the state’s current enterprise wide financial systems, Michigan Administrative Information Network (MAIN). SIGMA provides more functionality than the current systems and will improve the way Michigan performs all financial activities, including budgeting, accounting, payments, and business and grant opportunities. SIGMA has the capacity for future modifications, enhancements, and upgrades, to ensure Michigan will continue to make the best use of new technology and processes in the foreseeable future.
What is SIGMA VSS?
SIGMA Vendor Self-Service (SIGMA VSS), is the vendor portal where you can register, maintain your account, and perform financial inquires. SIGMA VSS will improve how the State of Michigan will work with vendors, payees and grantees, replacing Contract & Payment Express (C&PE) and Buy4Michigan. If you have an active account in the C&PE system on June 30, 2017, you will be converted to the user-friendly SIGMA VSS. July 31, 2017 you will need to go into SIGMA VSS and claim your account.
