Synuron Contingency Management will allow you to make substantial savings on non-medical, non-clinical contingency workforce costs (e.g. interim staff, temps, contractors… including daily-rate contingents all sourced from third-party suppliers).
This easy-to-use system will allow you to manage the recruitment and management of this contingent workforce without the need for a centralised department.
No more tedious admin, panic buys or lack of essential management information, just a flexible, easy to use system that offers line managers and recruiters alike total control and considerable savings, both in time and money.
The tool:
- Is specifically designed to manage our non-clinical contingent workforce
- Is designed to empower users & bring accountability
- Has a proven track record, risk free implementation & will deliver significant savings.
We estimate that the Contingency Management tool will save a minimum of 10% of your non-clinical contingency workforce costs.
The tool will bring the following benefits:
- Gives senior leadership a visible report on the tracking and use of such contingent resource. This is of huge benefit especially when permanent recruitment is frozen. This will help identify when daily rate staff are more affordable and more productive than a permanent hire.
- Put tighter controls in place on management costs through systemic and electronic forms to approve invoices for daily rate consultants/ interims.
- Cash savings by making agency margins visible: helps you negotiate with suppliers.
- In our experience, agency invoices are typically inaccurate, charging additional time, etc., (there is no easy reconciliation between the timesheet and the invoice). Just by correcting these errors, you can save 2-3% on this contingent bill (and this is a conservative estimate!)
- Reporting system will make sure that Inland Revenue processes are adhered to.
- Help identify when daily rate staff are more affordable and more productive than a permanent hire.
- When a daily rate staff member is kept for longer than the originally agreed period: the system will flag this so you can negotiate discounts on the margins from suppliers.
- Interims can be the best way to deliver focussed project work without burdening senior and costly staff with internal management issues.
- Will help you develop an organisation-wide approach to temporary workforce and deliver cash savings and better governance processes.
