Symbol Technologies
Challenge
Symbol’s procurement organization was faced with the task of trying to identify and more effectively manage their spend for contingent labor and consultants. With the absence of a centralized control point and company wide reporting, this was a difficult task.
Solution
The solution to their task was the engagement of nextSource in providing a vendor management program. With their extensive experience, nextSource was able to assist Symbol in establishing a centralized process for the acquisition of their contingent labor and consultants through the utilization of TAMS, The PeopleTicker and nextSource’s on-site services.
