Recently I found out that apparently when we were going through our implementation phase, one of our implementation specialists was asked by our client to help provide a bill rate for an independent contractor they were bringing on. The hiring manager was ok with the $125/hr asked by the contractor. When we looked at the actual work being done by the contractor our rate data showed that with his experience the rate should be around $85/hr. We were able to feed this information to the hiring manager who was then able to talk intelligently to the contractor and negotiate to a market relevant rate. Our client has never forgotten this one small outcome but it has become our largest feather. ![Free Your Procurement Teams To Focus on What is Important](https://www.contraxworkforce.com/hubfs/What%20is%20an%20MSP%20and%20do%20I%20need%20One-1.png) ### Contrax has a supplier management solution just for you.
