Frequently asked questions

A managed service provider (MSP) helps organizations manage their regional or global contingent workforce. An MSP partner provides:

  • Flexible talent vendor selection and budget oversight,
  • Customized contingent workforce strategies based on industry insights
  • Flexible talent tracking and process improvements across your organization, including the evaluation of flexible talent engagement
  • Implementation of contractor management technology
  • Streamlined onboarding and off-boarding
  • Invoice consolidation, payroll management and compliance expertise
  • Labor law compliance for single-location companies and multinationals.

A managed service provider is the right choice for recruitment when you lack a cohesive contingent workforce strategy. Common flexible talent issues that benefit from an MSP:

  • Lack of talent vendor oversight
  • Rising flexible workforce costs regionally or globally
  • Labor law and regulatory compliance
  • Changeable contingent talent needs

The difference between a recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) solution and a managed service provider (MSP) solution is that MSP falls under the umbrella of RPO. You may partner with an RPO for an exclusive contingent workforce solution, or an MSP engagement may be one of several solutions your RPO partner provides.
