Non-Permanent

HOW CAN YOU BETTER MANAGE YOUR NON-PERMANENT WORKFORCE?

When it comes to visibility and insight for your non-permanent workforce, it can often be difficult to gain a central viewpoint across your operations. Traditional Managed Service Provider (MSP) arrangements go some way in providing this central point of control, but organisations find they can often lose sight of their supply chain and struggle to drive consistent engagement with suppliers. Not enough suppliers and roles become hard to fill as there is not enough flexibility to scale up operations in a short period of time, but too many and performance and compliance becomes harder to manage.

At Linx we believe that what’s important when it comes to managing an organisation’s non-permanent workforce is listening to our clients to understand their current frustrations – what’s not working as well as they’d hoped it would with their current MSP solution; how effectively can it balance supply with demand; how responsive are their preferred suppliers.

OUR FLEXIBLE APPROACH

We love to build our clients non-permanent workforce solutions that are strategically aligned with their organisations goals – which ensure they have the room to grow, whilst satisfying their day-to-day demands. We’ll analyse your existing supply chain to review its current performance and agility and devise processes to effectively manage labour forecasting and demand planning. Working with you to devise well-structured change management programmes that ensure your supply chain is engaged and acknowledged throughout the process.

With good insight we know we can better support our clients as our solutions are rolled out across their operations, so we’ll spend time developing the right technology that will make processes leaner and more efficient, whilst ensuring you have full visibility through detailed management information reporting. We remain impartial and neutral when it comes to your preferred supplier list and our technology providers, which means we concentrate on identifying the right suppliers to bring your workforce strategy to life, with a constant focus on making sure it remains flexible, transparent and future ready.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A HYBRID APPROACH?

At Linx we specialise in creating hybrid solutions, because the pace in which clients engage their workforces is constantly changing. This means that our clients are not restricted to any set solution, instead we take the best parts of MSP and neutral vend, as well as looking for other options to ensure your non-permanent workforce remains flexible enough to meet your business needs. This can also include exploring service provision options such as Statement of Works and Employed Resource Models, to complement contingent hiring processes.

CHALLENGES WE OFTEN HEAR…

“We cannot centrally manage or control agency spend across our Hiring Managers.”

We know that for you to work strategically, you need to have full visibility of your supply chain spend and performance. That’s why we undertake an extensive review of your contractual terms, annual spend and agency rates – to identify any cost savings and improvements that can be made.
