Vendor and Contract Management

Overview

In today's competitive and cost conscious environment, temporary contract employees are becoming a core staffing resource. With the high cost of and short supply of permanent employees, temporary staffing provides a company the ability to bring in mission critical, key personnel to complete projects and augment staff. This allows employers to focus on recruiting and retaining core employees for long-term needs. Using and managing a temporary contract workforce has become a critical element of most companies.

The Problem


In an ideal world, each of your vendors would receive a requisition at the same time. This allows each vendor the opportunity to supply candidates and gives your company the ability to create true competition and reduce costs. Unfortunately for many companies, one or two vendors will get the requisition first by continually soliciting project managers causing distraction and lost work time. These companies will fill the requirements, but at a higher cost because of decreased competition. Even if all the vendors get contract requirements at the same time, managing responses is a time consuming and difficult process. Vendors invariably will send emails or call managers with rate and resume information. It is almost impossible to compare potential contractor skills and rate differences.

Our Solution


The key factor to solving these problems is our Contract Management System which creates a true open-market environment. We eliminate the problems of filling contracts by using enterprise-class software and the Internet to "level the playing field" between vendors. Each will receive the requisition at the same time via email. Better yet, all contract submissions are done through a web-based interface for easy comparison of rate and technical skills by your project managers. No more annoying phone calls and emails from vendors! In addition to your existing vendors list, you can choose to include our private network of 4000+ vendors. This ensures the broadest distribution of your contracting requirements, thereby increasing available consultants and decreasing costs.

Our CMS product offering is completely customizable to your company's requirements and consists of two specific configuration methodologies:
