More than the bottom line: What drives SOW management ROI?
When developing an SOW management program business case, it is critical to define what drives an initiative’s return on investment. And when it comes to folding statement-of-work management into your CW program, it’s important to know how those drivers differ from staff augmentation. Here’s what to consider.
Get a strong CW brand engagement strategy or lose quality talent
As contingent worker usage swells, an organization’s engagement brand has become even more critical. What to keep in mind when developing your strategy.
Beware, you may be using the wrong benchmarks
Comparing your program to marketplace trends is useful, but be wary of misinterpreted or misapplied data.
Don’t ask staffing firms to be your banker or insurer
You would not ask your car dealer to sell you a cake. Why demand banking services from your staffing partner? Many program offices succumb to internal pressures to add contractual requirements forcing staffing partners to be what they are not. Why that can be bad for your program.
Tracking data across applications

Beyond NPS: Scores only tell part of the story
Do you actually understand what is important to your stakeholders and how specific elements of your service are valued? That analysis is where your true CW program value is optimized.
Providing extra value with SOW engagement management services
SOW engagement management is becoming more commonplace in today’s programs; what level of support services are being provided, and how can they grow?
The true ramifications of the evolving legal landscape
Tracking and understanding the ever-changing employment laws and their true effect on the workforce solutions ecosystem is critical to maintaining a compliant yet competitive and nimble program.
A many-splendored tool
A well-crafted mission is a powerful tool in delivering the CW agenda and achieving its promise.
