Simplify staffing supplier management while gaining access to the broadest network of contract talent.

The problem:

• Larger companies have a difficult time finding the right staffing vendor mix to meet their contract staffing needs on an ongoing basis.
• The contract talent market has become increasingly fragmented - 90% of US staffing firms are small (less than 25 contractors) and more consultants are choosing to work independently rather than through firms.
• Managers are swamped with calls from staffing firms who solicit them daily, yet limiting the vendor mix can result in spiked rates for niche or legacy skills
• Creating master service agreements for each new staffing vendor is time consuming, and processing invoices from dozens of suppliers can be overwhelming.
• On-boarding and educating new staffing suppliers and contractors is a burdensome and inconsistent process within most companies, and tracking and reporting is frequently minimal (or altogether absent).

The solution:

• The HotGigs Channel Vendor program provides you with a strategy to help manage your staffing suppliers (either all firms, or your non-preferred firms) through a single vendor relationship.
• Your company can access contract talent from our growing network of 16,000+ consulting and staffing firms contacts and 100,000+ independent consultants on the HotGigs Staffing Exchange.
