Executive summary

How extended workforce programs have changed

Twenty years ago, the primary concern for extended workforce program owners was minimize the cost of external labor, most of which was then provided by temporary staffing agencies, often called “staffing vendors.” To control these costs, businesses adopted technology known as VMS.

Today’s extended workforce programs are much more strategic. While cost control is still important, the primary focus now is to deliver the talent your organization needs to achieve your strategic goals. Conventional VMS solutions have not kept up with this strategic shift. This is why Beeline expanded to an extended workforce platform and offers solutions specifically designed to address the needs of external workforce programs.
