Managed Service Program FAQs

Most MSPs are charged as either a percentage of contingent workforce spend, or a price per transaction fee. We can also tailor payment options to the specific needs of your organization, including a fixed fee or a performance-based pricing model, in which savings are shared.

We’ll explore the options available when it comes to supplier management, tailored to the specific challenges and ambitions faced by your organization and MSP implementation. We’ll always choose to champion enablement over control.

The first step is to set up a multidisciplinary Steering Committee, consisting of HR and Procurement, and line management from the teams which hire the most temporary resources. Securing engagement from this project team ensures key perspectives are taken into consideration and that your stakeholders are in agreement before the solution is chosen.

Sustained support and unambiguous communications are essential for a successful outsourcing solution.
