Preferred Supplier List with multiple suppliers. Preferred Supplier Lists can be set up on a ranked or neutral basis and will
ensure your needs are covered across a range of experienced and professional organisation.
Talent Bank Technology Solution
4 suppliers
This Lot provides a technology solution which will allow PfH Members to manage their own talent pool of pre-qualified
workers. The technology is particularly powerful where short term staff are required quickly (e.g. care and support roles,
facilities management roles) and enables a hiring manager to access the talent bank to source suitably qualified and
experienced candidates (including those they have used previously) to fill short term gaps in staffing. It can also be used
for longer term roles where the organisation wishes to manage its own recruitment. Platforms operate as a Software
as a Service (SaaS) solution providing access 24/7/365 whilst being compliant with ISO 27001. The platform provides a
solution that will manage the lifecycle of recruitment from finding, through hiring, compliance, time-sheet management and
management information; this single portal allows hiring managers, administrators and candidates to access the services
at any time whilst also ensuring transparency through pay roll.
