In本四部分系列的第2部分那we examined the emergence of purportedly enterprise-grade, fit-for-purpose, technology-enabled direct sourcing solutions over the past few years, beginning from the “first stab” of freelancer management systems (FMS) to today’s solutions, which are being developed and brought to market a range of different third parties: VMS providers, new software/technology providers, contingent workforce service providers and even some of the talent marketplace platforms.
但是,在这一复杂的一系列不同解决方案的出现,不断发展的供应方环境呈现企业企业和功能高管,并挑战整理和识别适合目的的直接采购解决方案,并将满足企业要求。然而,适合目的可能意味着不同的东西,具体取决于什么类型的独立工人正在源于采购和订婚,以执行特定的工作(例如,低技能Gig Workers与专业技术,熟练的独立专业人士)。
In this third part of our series, we focus on the crucial relationship between technology-enabled direct sourcing and engaging specialized, skilled independent professionals.
Professional Independent Talent: A Breed Apart
Not all categories of workers are ideally suited for direct sourcing, and, in some of these cases, traditional sourcing through staffing firms or service providers can be the optimal sourcing approach. However, specialized, skilled independent professionals are becoming increasingly important to larger, often global enterprises — and this hard-to-find talent must, by definition, be directly sourced.
此外,企业管理人员需要快速,可靠地访问已知人才 - 技术支持的直接采购解决方案也支持的东西。事实上,通过一方面,技术的直接采购,另一方面,基于专业的独立/自由人才,另一方面,适合手和手套 - 即,提供了适当的,适用的解决方案来源并管理这些工人的独特参与。
基于专业知识的独立工人的人口 - 越来越重要的批判性(且通常是稀缺)技能,企业知识和服务的重要来源 - 正在增长。根据这一点MBO Partners“State of Independence in America” report, in 2017 the number of high-earning independents rose for the sixth year in a row. Full-time independents making more than $100,000 annually (accounting for 20% of all independents) were up 4.9% from 2016, while the remaining 80% of the population grew by only 2.7%.
特别是在最高水平的需求专业知识,独立专业人员不是通过任何方式进行“标准产品” - 他们的专业化,各种各样和更改的技能概况和偏好(以及客户的偏好)不能简单地解决标准化,自动化流程。独立人士是最佳的源性和订婚,考虑到以下内容:
- 他们更喜欢独立于超过收益的各种原因;他们倾向于为工作生活平衡的灵活性重视灵活性,并且只想出于各种原因专业独立(例如,工作多样,技能发展)。
- 他们对个人支持有先进的需求(例如,遵守,时间管理,法律,会计,税收,保险,发票,应收款项,付款以及客户关系管理,最后但并非最不重要的是,渠道获得新客户。
- 他们是复杂和技术的。他们不仅预计通过技术进行,而且对最新技术往往感兴趣,特别是这位工人的大量增长将来自年轻工人。
- 他们知道自己的价值,他们将选择他们为他们工作的客户以及他们将执行工作的条款。企业需要在独立专业人才的眼中成为“选择的客户”。
简而言之,顶级独立专业人员是一种繁殖,他们想直接。支持技术的直接采购是寻找和参与这一顶级人才的最佳模型。但企业必须正确。
来自企业的景色:将它们束起来
希望取得成功的企业从事这一关键的技能来源,专业知识和服务必须拥有一种能够实现技术的直接采购解决方案,适合该目的,并将满足企业解决方案要求的全部补充。
因此,企业必须有一个解决方案,符合他们希望参与的独立人才的上述需求 - 这种解决方案是成为成为“选择客户的”客户的关键基础元素。但是,企业也必须有解决方案,符合不可转让的企业要求。这些包括:
- 企业技术:This includes meeting IT’s technical requirements, such as technology stack (e.g., cloud), technology architecture (e.g., SOA), openness (e.g., APIs) and security (e.g. ISO/IEC 27001).
- Enterprise Integration:This includes the ability to integrate or harmonize within established enterprise processes (e.g., requisitioning contingent workforce, invoice/payment processing) and systems (e.g., VMS, financial as well as potentially e-procurement and CLM).
- 工人合规:This includes ensuring correct worker classification, compliance with other external legal requirements and meeting a specific enterprise’s requirements for background check, business insurance, IP protection and so on.
- Talent-facing Support:这包括独立专业人员所需的能力和服务,以担任企业的有效,兼容,低风险的供应商(例如,财务管理,商业保险,合规性教育以及建立适合特定独立专业人士的法人实体)。
- 采购选项:This includes access to both client-designated sources of known independent talent (e.g., previously engaged contractors, alumni) and multiple external sources (in particular, work marketplace platforms).
总之,一个由直接的苏rcing solution that will support successful engagement of independent professionals must be fit for that specific purpose and must satisfy stringent enterprise requirements for technology, integration, compliance and sourcing.
