Your MSP partner can work with you — and
suppliers — to develop a highly configurable
strategy that maintains consistency with your
overall brand framework, while targeting and
attracting highly skilled contingent talent to
your organization.
5. talent branding expertise.
6. predictive analytics & data management.
Workforce data and business insights are now
more important to organizations than ever before,
yet many lack the technological infrastructure
or subject matter expertise to leverage this
information. The evolution of MSP has led service
providers to invest in more sophisticated predictive
analytics and easy-to-use reporting dashboards.
You can also benefit from collaborative customer
review sessions where you work closely with
your MSP partner and suppliers to ensure access
to the best talent. Some partners also provide
access to management portals that facilitate
communications and processes among all parties.
8. innovative technologies and practices
Employer branding strategies have long been
considered essential for attracting permanent
hires; however, as companies and talent turn to
flexible work arrangements, a holistic employee
value proposition (EVP) that also accounts for the
contingent workforce is critical.
This gives you the ability to identify issues
occurring around skill needs, spend habits, supplier
performance, fulfillment efficiency and other
important metrics. Some talent analytics platforms
can also help your hiring managers make decisions
on which types of talent are best for their needs,
based on historical analysis of availability of skills.
Because MSP providers constantly invest in their
delivery infrastructure, as a client, you benefit
from the newest tools and process refinements.
For example, you can get access to emerging HR
technologies, such as human cloud platforms,
also known as freelancer management systems
(FMS), that help companies easily engage with
independent talent.
7. improved flexibility and scalability
In today's dynamic business landscape, companies
must respond quickly to changing market conditions;
a highly flexible workforce can help you do this.
Because MSPs work with an extensive supplier base,
your provider can find alternative sources of skills
when your existing supply chain is unable to deliver.
Your program can also be scaled up or down
quickly when business needs change, or replicated
at a different location or market to provide a
consistent experience for hiring managers
throughout the organization.
