Fieldglass-Sponsored Aberdeen Research Report Finds Best-in-Class Companies Use Vendor Managed System (VMS) Technology to Achieve Tangible Results
Report Offers Inside Look at How Companies are Managing Their Growing Contingent Labor Programs
CHICAGO, July 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Fieldglass, Inc., the leading technology provider to procure and manage contingent labor and services, today announces the availability of a new report by the Aberdeen Group identifying labor management trends and best practices. Fieldglass is offering the report, titled "Contingent Labor Management: Strategies for Managing the Complexities of the Contingent Labor Umbrella," free of charge for a limited time here.
The study identified several tactics and strategies shared by "best-in-class" companies to drive maximum value from their contingent workforce programs. Aberdeen found that 63 percent of those that achieved the best-in-class designation (top 20 percent of performers) utilize VMS technology to manage increasingly complex labor programs.
"With nearly 20 percent of the average company's workforce considered contingent labor, it is more important than ever to fully manage the many complexities with each sub-set of contingent labor, such as independent contractors, Statement of Work (SOW) labor, services and 'classic' temporary labor," said Christopher Dwyer, research analyst, Aberdeen. "Utilizing best-of-breed VMS technology allows companies to maintain spend visibility, drive compliance, achieve cost savings and attain superior performance."
The best-in-class companies identified in the research findings reported a variety of results that have a direct impact on business goals and the bottom line. Best-in-class companies:
- have a 76 percent higher cost savings on contingent labor spending
- are nearly 75 percent more likely to regularly track contingent worker quality
- are 25 percent more compliant to federal/state/regulatory labor and tax policies
