Aimed at fostering a digital connection between the UAE\u2019s complicated ecosystem of managers, suppliers, Transguard Group, one of the nation\u2019s largest employers, has announced a partnership with SAP that is aimed at digitally transforming the country\u2019s USD $1 billion job outsourcing market. <\/p>\n
A Bayt.com survey found two-thirds (66 percent) of Middle East employers plan to hire in 2018. Increasingly, employers see the UAE as an outsourcing hub, with the country\u2019s outsourcing market set to grow by 22 percent to USD $1.2 billion by 2020, according to the International Data Corporation (IDC). By partnering with SAP Fieldglass, Transguard Group is making it quicker, easier, and more cost-effective for companies to find, hire and manage the right staff at the right time.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe workforce for many organisations in the Middle East consists of an increasingly high percentage of contingent workers, such as contractors, skilled trade workers and professionals, to help run their business,\u201d explained Greg Ward, Managing Director of Transguard Group. \u201cThese workers are constantly evolving and can be difficult to track, both from a cost and personnel perspective. It\u2019s challenging, if not impossible, to effectively manage a workforce and the multiple companies supplying those workers when the true cost and performance is unknown. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe partnership between Transguard MSP and SAP Fieldglass solves this problem by managing their external contract suppliers and workforce while providing a complete and accurate picture of their entire headcount and spend,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is ground breaking for the region and we\u2019re obviously delighted to be in partnership with SAP, to provide it in the Middle East. Our clients using this solution system will reap a range of benefits, including cost savings, greater access to talent, quicker employee placement and increased revenue potential,\u201d Ward concluded.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs the UAE\u2019s first managed services provider for contingent workforce management, Transguard Group is developing new services, increasing speed to market, and meeting market demands,\u201d said Gergi Abboud, Senior Vice President and General Manager, SAP Middle East South. \u201cWe\u2019re localising global best practices for Transguard Group to have the knowledge, resources, and flexibility to meet the UAE\u2019s rapidly-changing talent development needs to 2020 and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
