Upwork Announces Vendor Management System (VMS) Partnerships and Extended Integration Capabilities to Deliver More Seamless, Centralized Workforce Management
05 Diciembre 2023 - 8:00AM
Upwork Inc. (Nasdaq: UPWK), the world’s largest work marketplace
that connects businesses with independent talent from across the
globe, today announced its first of many partnerships with vendor
management systems (VMS) and managed service providers (MSP) for
its Enterprise Suite offering. SAP Fieldglass and Flextrack are
partnering with Upwork to deliver a more comprehensive and unified
approach to workforce management. Additionally, Upwork is creating
a set of available integrations and accessible APIs that will
enable the Upwork Enterprise Suite to work seamlessly across an
enterprise’s entire workforce ecosystem. These partnerships and
integrations will help Upwork enterprise customers drive
efficiency, as well as scale and optimize their workforces,
inclusive of independent talent, contingent workers, and full-time
employees.
Business leaders and hiring managers are navigating an
increasingly complex web of specialized tools and platforms
designed for workforce management. Today’s announcement of VMS
partnerships with SAP Fieldglass and Flextrack creates a
comprehensive end-to-end solution for seamlessly sourcing and
hiring expert independent talent. Combining the global network of
skilled independent talent on Upwork and cutting-edge technology
with powerful VMS platforms, enterprise customers will gain direct
access through the VMS to the global pool of talent on Upwork
across more than 10,000 skills in over 180 countries, and
connecting to a VMS will centralize and streamline workforce
management, onboarding, and payment into existing workflows and one
system. In addition, these VMS partnerships will mitigate risks of
departmental hiring outside of existing procurement processes,
provide comprehensive control over sourcing and hiring, and reduce
extraneous approvals and hiring workstreams.
"Upwork's dynamic synergy with VMS and MSP partners tackles many
age-old challenges in our work ecosystem, revolutionizing project
visibility, quality assurance, and industry standards adherence,"
said Christopher J. Dwyer, senior vice president of research at
Ardent Partners and managing director of the Future of Work
Exchange. "The seamless integration of VMS and MSP services on
Upwork is a game-changer, providing a holistic solution for
businesses hungry for agile, on-demand talent. This not only
ensures robust project oversight and compliance, but also sparks a
new, transformative era of workforce solutions collaboration. With
these cutting-edge integrations and added capabilities, Upwork is
setting the pace by meeting the ever-evolving needs of businesses
and talent alike.”
Upwork also continues to extend integration capabilities
requested by customers with leading HRIS, ATS, procurement, and
recruitment platforms. These integrations, coupled with a robust
set of APIs, enable hiring managers to connect and optimize the way
they source, hire, and engage global independent talent within
Upwork’s Enterprise Suite and other workforce management systems
they know and trust.
“Our Enterprise Suite advancements reaffirm our commitment to
providing cutting-edge solutions for our customers navigating the
evolving landscape of work,” said Zoë Diamadi, general manager of
enterprise at Upwork. “As demand for independent talent continues
to rise, we understand the importance of empowering enterprises
with the tools they need to thrive. Our latest partnerships,
integrations, and enterprise product enhancements aim to streamline
and elevate the entire work process, and drive unmatched efficiency
