Do you replace our existing suppliers?

Not necessarily. We take over management of your existing supply chain, standardise rates and compliance, and supplement with our own network where gaps exist. Existing supplier relationships can be maintained within the programme governance structure.

Can you integrate with our existing VMS?

Yes. ERSG is experienced across the major VMS platforms. We integrate with your existing system or implement and manage a new one if required.

MSP pricing is typically a management fee based on programme spend, a per-transaction model or a hybrid. We present options at scoping based on your current spend profile.

What compliance does the MSP programme cover?

IR35 assessment, right-to-work verification, GDPR compliance, contractor onboarding, health and safety requirements and insurance validation are all managed within the programme. Standards are consistent across all suppliers.

How long to get an MSP programme running?

Implementation typically takes 8–12 weeks from contract signature. Complex programmes with legacy supplier bases or technology migration may take longer. We provide a phased implementation plan at scoping.

Managed Service Provider (MSP)

One point of accountability for your entire contingent workforce. ERSG manages hiring, reporting, suppliers, rate cards and logistics - so you don't have to.

SERVICE OVERVIEW

Simplify Your Contingent Workforce Programme

Managing a contingent workforce across multiple suppliers, rate structures and compliance requirements is operationally demanding. ERSG's Managed Service Provider solution brings it under a single managed programme, reducing complexity, improving visibility and driving cost control.

We handle everything from hiring and onboarding to supplier management and MI reporting. Logistics support - travel, accommodation, onsite assistance - is included where required. We integrate with your existing Vendor Management System or implement and manage a new one.

For organisations with significant contract and temporary workforce requirements, MSP reduces administrative overhead, standardises rates and compliance, and gives you programme-level visibility of spend and performance.

WHY ERSG

Why Clients Choose ERSG for MSP

Sector-specific MSP, not generic workforce management

Generic MSP providers manage headcount. ERSG manages renewable energy talent; specialists who understand the sector, not administrators who process paperwork.

Single point of accountability

One contact. One contract. One set of rate cards. One compliance standard. Complexity absorbed; visibility increased.

Supplier management included

We manage your supply chain, not just direct placements. Every supplier in the programme is governed, measured and held to standard.

Technology-agnostic

We work with your existing VMS or implement a new one. No forced migration; no expensive system replacement if your current platform is working.
