Join Us for Our Upcoming Webinar: “SOW: Client Needs, Strategic Choices, and the User Experience”

Virtually every mid-market company outsources some aspect of their business to a professional services firm.  These organizations can deliver expertise not available in-house or address resource shortage issues.  They work under a “statement of work” agreement that specifies the work to be done, deliverables, timeframes, methods for monitoring progress, and payment terms.  Most companies engage these firms, nicknamed “SOW resources”, to aid with IT projects, Marketing, Accounting, or Legal.  But often, in solving the problem of needing these specialized resources, companies take on new challenges that can drive up costs, introduce new levels of risk, and add to administrative burden. For decades, nextSource has been unearthing the root causes of these challenges and guiding mid-market clients through the complexities of modern Services Procurement solutions.   

We are thrilled to announce that we are again partnering with Chateau Consulting, a firm at the forefront of contingent workforce management consulting, for the second webinar in our educational series, “SOW: Client Needs, Strategic Choices, and the User Experience,” scheduled for 1:00 pm EST on May 22nd.
