This paper discusses how Master Vendor and VMS management models for the contingent workforce, have frequently denied client protection and control over risk, technology, and access to talent. It also provides an instructional overview of how The Managed Service Provider (MSP) model turns the situation around in favor of the client, by helping the reader recognize quality and process failures. You will find pointers on setting up relationships that enable essential service- components to be independently swapped out as necessary to avoid the trap of “starting over”. The MSP model discussed in this paper, also addresses the most talented, costly and high risk segment of the contingent workforce, the Independent Contractor.
