In 2020, Alexander Mann Solutions’ end objective is unchanged. Alexander Mann Solutions is passionate about helping companies and individuals fulfill their potential through talent acquisition (TA), talent management, and contingent workforce solutions.

Direct to Market Sourcing is well-established in Alexander Mann Solutions. Direct-to-market sourcing models are part of most of its clients’ MSPs. In 2020, Alexander Mann Solutions will advise more U.S.-based clients on direct sourcing, as new clients embrace it for the first time.

Its Insight-led sourcing strategy, prevalent in most of its MSP clients, will continue to be rolled out during 2020.

In 2019, Alexander Mann Solutions’ Talent Collective team saw much traction in consulting on contingent workforce advisory services and technology.

It will continue to grow these new consultancy areas in 2020.

Firstly, its predictive analytics platform, Intellirate (built on the Azure platform), has become the single interface layer for clients, into which other technology/tools are integrated behind the scenes.

Alexander Mann Solutions manages many MSP/CWS clients. Alexander Mann Solutions’ clients are predominantly large organizations with very complex structures. 

Alexander Mann Solutions’ more recent client wins include healthcare, life sciences, and technology.
