Why a Smarter Contingent Workforce Strategy Matters

‍

In today’s dynamic workforce landscape, nearly 30 percent of employees in large organizations are contingent workers, including freelancers, contractors, interns, and consultants. Managing this growing segment presents challenges across compliance, budgeting, talent acquisition, and supplier oversight. To stay competitive, companies are rethinking how they structure their sourcing models, integrating solutions such as Vendor Management Systems and freelance marketplaces to streamline operations and reduce costs. A thoughtful, flexible approach that aligns with company maturity and strategy can improve hiring speed, enhance visibility, and drive long-term efficiency across HR and procurement.
