Cloud-Based Solution Transforms the Way Companies Source and Manage Contractors
ATLANTA - March 29, 2011 - Technology Association of Georgia (TAG) has partnered with Georgia-based TALENThire to launch a breakthrough, cloud-based contractor marketplace solution. The TAG Contractor Marketplace will meet TAG's goal of providing service to members who seek more efficient processes to find top talent to fuel their growth. The solution empowers businesses to easily source contract labor and to manage the associated process.
"We currently have a large number of small businesses who are in need of contract labor but don't have the resources to manage the processes. Our Contractor Marketplace transforms a complex and tedious process into a streamlined one via a simple, cloud-based platform that's free to use for companies. As part of our mission, TAG is committed to lead the way in using the latest technology solutions to help businesses seamlessly connect with the talent they need," said Tino Mantella, TAG's President and CEO. "TAG and its partner Talent Hire are not directly in the contract staffing business. We are supporting the technology solution in response to requests from our small company members for assistance in this area. Our member companies, in the contract staffing business will be the ones to fill the orders" Mantella remarked.
"Knowlagent is a growth company that delivers call center technology to our clients. Too often, we struggled to source quality candidates quickly and cost effectively. Using the on-demand Contractor Marketplace solution, we gained instant access to proven Atlanta-based staffing firms who delivered quality candidates within days, without the hassles of finding and contracting with them ourselves and at no additional charge. It really is a breakthrough solution and business model for sourcing and managing contractors," said John Wolf, COO, Knowlagent.
The solution manages all aspects of the contract labor process for businesses, including vendor contracts, contractor timesheets and expenses, invoicing, vendor payments and tax forms. The solution is ideal for companies with ad hoc contractor needs.
To utilize the free, web-based solution visit the website at www.TAGthink.com/contractormarketplace and fill out the Get Started form. From here companies will be provided simple instructions about how to post a contract position. Once the position is posted, our proven Atlanta-based vendors will deliver screened candidates to your desktop. After you select a contractor we handle all of the administrative tasks.
