The Case for Independent Workforce Intelligence

See What Your Contingent Resource Program Is Actually Delivering

Presented By

Brad Killinger, CEO, Sapience Analytics

Session Description

Designed for contingent workforce leaders, strategists, and managers, this session explores why objective, independent workforce intelligence is the missing layer in even the most mature contingent workforce programs. Attendees will learn what becomes possible when organizations have a continuous, evidence-based view of whether billed hours reflect actual productive work — and how that visibility transforms decisions around timecards, extensions, and supplier performance. Walk away with a clear framework for adding independent intelligence to your program without replacing the infrastructure you’ve already built.

Takeaways

  1. Independent intelligence unlocks what program data alone cannot. Even well-run programs with strong VMS and MSP infrastructure lack one critical capability: an objective baseline for workforce value. Independent work activity intelligence fills that gap — continuously and without bias.
  2. Visibility changes every decision downstream. When you know whether billed hours reflect productive work, timecard approval becomes genuine validation, extension decisions become data-informed, and supplier performance gains a new and more meaningful dimension.
  3. The ROI is quantifiable — and often immediate. Organizations with an independent intelligence layer don’t just gain visibility. They gain indisputable, quantifiable evidence of where value is being delivered and where savings opportunities exist.
