Report Overview:

Alexander Mann Solutions (AMS) began providing contingent workforce services in the U.K. in 1996. Its first client, ICL (now Fujitsu), was previously using agencies and wanted the recruitment service to have a greater focus on outcomes and quality of hire, rather than just on filling positions. The contract scope included the management of 1.5k workers across IT contractors, support staff and engineers. The scope of the ICL contract included RPO for permanent hires as well as contingent workers.
