The Benefits of IT Contracting for the Client

The Benefits of IT Contracting for the Client

The latest instalment in our series of blogs on IT Contracting, we have provided insight into the benefits of hiring contractors from the clients perspective. IT Contractors provide clients with flexible access to skills that an organisation does not have, or does not have enough of, and may not need over the long term. When very specific and specialist skills are required, contractors are ideal to plug the gap.

In recent years, there has been a growing trend for companies to take on contractors in the IT Contracting space particularly for projects.

IT Contracting has become popular for every employer type, ranging from multinationals to SMEs and even start-ups. One of the reasons why it’s beneficial for companies to employ out IT contractors to work on specific projects is the specialised expertise then they can bring to a role. From speaking to companies on a daily basis, we at Ergo know that the majority find it difficult to source permanent talent for niche IT roles.

  1.  Access to highly skilled individuals on a project by project basis
  2. No employers PRSI, sick pay or holiday pay to worry about
  3. Stay competitive and profitable by only taking on workers when required
  4. No payment if work is not completed
  5. Supplement internal talent on a project by project basis
  6. Agility and ability to adapt to client requirements quickly

Ergo are key players in the IT Contracting space, especially when it comes to sourcing top class talent that has not only the technical ability to carry out the role but is also a cultural fir to the company they will be contracting for. If you would like Ergo to source IT Contractors for your business, please email us.
