Why Choosing a Technology-Agnostic Workforce Management Partner is a Smart Move

Partnering with a Managed Services Provider (MSP) that is tech-agnostic can make all the difference in your company’s strategy for utilizing workforce tech to manage your worker population effectively. But why should companies consider a technology-agnostic MSP? Here are a few reasons why partnering with one can pay off:

A tech-agnostic approach will result in a more customized solution

Flexibility is one of the most valuable things about engaging a technology-agnostic MSP. MSPs that are tech-agnostic and not tied to promoting one brand or platform can help advise you to find the best tool for your unique needs. This means you get a solution that fits your business perfectly and can scale with your workforce needs. True tech-agnostic MSPs will have tremendous experience working with the top industry-leading VMS platforms and can advise you on the best platform for your workforce.

Choosing the right partner can save you time and money

When selecting a truly tech-agnostic MSP, you are gaining a dedicated partner with extensive expertise in VMS technology, implementation, strategic consultation, and effective change management. This experience level typically ensures a seamless transition to your new technology, minimizing disruptions during the shift. As a result, you can expect to see significant process efficiencies that save valuable time and resources during the implementation phase and continue to drive cost-effectiveness well into the steady-state operations following the go-live period.

A tech-agnostic MSP will provide a diverse slate of technology solutions

When you work with a tech-agnostic MSP, you tap into a wealth of knowledge across different tools and platforms. They can bring a fresh perspective and creative solutions to your workforce challenges. For example, At OneBeacon, our workforce experts have decades of experience in assessing, consulting, and implementing VMS and workforce technology. They offer our clients insights into what works best across various industries. This has led to a more efficient and effective user experience for hiring managers and internal stakeholders. 

The right partner will help drive innovation and continuous improvement 

Another benefit to partnering with a tech-agnostic MSP provider is the expertise in innovation and continuous improvement that the provider will bring. A true tech-agnostic MSP will strongly advocate exploring various tools and methodologies, and clients embracing this approach will be presented with various workforce management solutions that can drive the business forward. 

The right partner will set you up for success both now and in the future

As your company grows, so do your workforce management needs. A technology-agnostic MSP not only scales with you but also continually assesses your technology to ensure it remains the right fit as you grow and expand your program. With ongoing support from the VMS tech team, your MSP will proactively configure and adapt the technology to meet your changing requirements. This flexibility ensures that you will not have to worry about outgrowing your current solutions; instead, you will always be equipped and ready for whatever comes next.

Wrapping it up

Choosing a technology-agnostic staffing MSP is a smart move for companies looking to stay agile and competitive. Ultimately, partnering with a technology-neutral MSP ensures you have the right tools to navigate workforce management challenges effectively with a tailored VMS solution coupled with expert change management and implementation guidance to drive your program forward.
