From Tools to Operating Systems
Why Staffing Agencies Are Replacing Their Tech Stack
The average hourly staffing agency uses six to eight separate tools — an ATS, a texting platform, a payroll system, a timesheet app, a billing tool, and a job board or two. Each one was the 'best solution' at the time it was purchased. Together, they've become a liability. This paper examines what happens when agencies stop thinking in tools and start thinking in operating systems — and why the agencies making that shift are pulling ahead of the ones that aren't.
