The global Managed Service Provider (MSP) market is undergoing tremendous change owing to buyer requirements for more strategic solutions. In additional to the traditional temporary labor, buyers are increasingly relying on their service providers to manage additional types of labor including services procurement/SOW, independent contractor (IC), and permanent labor. In order to service these additional requirements of buyers, service providers are continuously investing to expand their capabilities in these new areas. They are gradually increasing their technology leverage in analytics, SOW management, and IC management areas to optimize the contingent workforce programs of their clients. The leaders in the MSP space have developed a unique vision for their clients and themselves to act as a differentiator going forward.
