The problem today

External workforce still runs on Excel, phone and paper

Many companies manage their external workforce with Excel, phone calls and paper. That works as long as the processes stay manageable. As volumes grow, reviews come up or invoices show discrepancies, things become hard to keep track of — and risky: legal deadlines pass unnoticed, and if a provider fails, the company is liable. The systems meant to solve this go unused.

Europe's external workforce runs on Excel. For now.

Excel

No overview

Every site keeps its own Excel lists. Anyone who wants to know who is on assignment where, at what rate and until when, often has to gather the information first.

Result: costs and assignments without reliable numbers

Phone and email

No speed

A staffing request goes out to several providers, replies come back one by one, and approvals run over phone or email. The current status quickly ends up scattered across different inboxes.

Result: coordination chaos, duplicate work and slow staffing

Paper

No evidence

Timesheets, clearance certificates and temporary staffing licenses often still exist as printouts or attachments. When a deadline passes, in the worst case it only comes to light at the next review.

Result: liability risk at the next audit

The solution

One process, two different paths

On one side are your sites, on the other your staffing providers. In between lie either many individual channels or one shared system.

Without Pactos
  • One Excel list per site
  • Request by phone, confirmation by callback
  • Records as attachments in an inbox
  • Deadlines in one person's Outlook calendar
  • Check the invoice against paper
  • chaotic
  • error-prone
  • no shared state
  • deadlines flown blind
With Pactos
  • One staffing request goes to all connected providers
  • Records arrive automatically and are checked
  • Deadlines are monitored automatically and reported in time
  • Invoices are reconciled against approved timesheets
  • one central place
  • traceable
  • one state of data
  • Deadlines are monitored automatically
  • CV parsing
  • AI matching
  • Interview guides
  • Invoice verification
