Throughout the
Public and Not-For-Profit sector there are a number of different ways in which
organisations handle their IT recruitment needs.
Open:
-
Organisations with an open policy generally leave IT up to
the recruiting managers or the HR Managers to decide upon which method of
recruitment they use, be it advertisements, agencies or both. Under this method
the managers can negotiate the terms with the agencies on an individual basis
and are not signed into using certain agencies for a period of time.
Preferred
Supplier List (PSL):
-
Organisations which operate
PSLs generally have a list of
recruitment agencies for each section who have signed a framework agreement to
source temporary and sometimes permanent staff for the organisation. This
agreement is usually negotiated and signed by procurement. Generally the PSL has
a number of preferred agencies who get sent out every vacancy in the area they
cover from the organisation and have signed into set fee agreements.
Managed Vendor Agreements:
-
Managed Vendor agreements are where an organisation has
negotiated an agreement and a set of Service Level Agreements (SLAs) with a 3rd
party to handle all their recruitment needs. This agreement can be either a
Neutral Vendor agreement or a normal Vendor agreement. In the neutral Vendor
agreement the vendor may not supply staff to the organisation, they simply
manage all recruitment for the organisation. The Vendor would then hold a tender
to select a first and secondary tier of suppliers who will source the staff for
the organisation. All suppliers would be signed into a framework agreement
including set fees and timescales for every role. The vendor would also provide
an online system where all roles, timesheets, invoices and candidate CVs can be
submitted to try and help improve the efficiency of the recruitment process.
Outsourced:
-
An outsource
agreement can cover part or all of an IT department. This is where the
organisation decides, at board level, to let another company handle its IT
requirements. They sign into an agreement and SLAs with this company who then
either TUPE across the
organisation’s staff, provide the IT services from a remote location or,
generally in smaller organisations, send their own staff onto the organisation’s
site. The organisations who sign into these outsourcing agreements would pay
this company a fee which would depend on how many of the SLAs they hit during a
set period which they agree to. Recruitment for the sections covered by the
Outsourcer would be dealt with by them as well as usually removing the
organisation’s need to recruit.
3rd
Party Vendors: -
This is when the
client forgoes the need to recruit staff to provide support or development on
certain systems and software by signing into a support contract with the
software supplier. This generally happens on niche software products.
