Benefits of Technical Staffing for Enterprise Companies

Managing Your IT Workload Through Strategic Staffing Solutions

The fast-paced nature of business demands effective management of ever-changing IT staffing demands. However, the process of locating, qualifying, and managing staff for complex IT projects is both time-consuming and costly. This becomes even more challenging as projects keep arising, each with different requirements and skill sets, creating a continuous cycle that diverts organizations’ focus from their core business. At QAT Global, we understand the significance of having the right resources in the right place at the right time. Our strategic staffing solutions aim to help you control costs and maximize profitability.

As your trusted partner, QAT Global delivers qualified professional contracts and permanent IT staff promptly and efficiently, ensuring they align with your immediate and long-term business objectives. With over a decade of experience, we have established ourselves as a leading provider of consulting, staff augmentation, and specialized expertise necessary for critical IT initiatives. All of our consultants undergo a comprehensive interview process tailored to your specific needs. QAT Global will go the extra mile to provide highly qualified consultants that blend into your culture and work well with your staff. Our experience enables us to provide agile and cost-effective IT solutions and services. That’s why our clients include government entities, Fortune 500 companies, as well as smaller local businesses.

Using a consultant from QAT Global empowers you with the ultimate in staffing flexibility. QAT Global assumes the burden of the recruiting process and the overhead associated with employee benefits and payroll taxes. We understand that consultants are typically hired to complete a specific task. When the task is over, our consultants move on to their next assignment freeing you from uncomfortable staffing decisions. We provide competitively priced, task-oriented IT resources to enable lower-cost staff augmentation. QAT Global offers you the flexibility and expertise to take on assignments lasting a few weeks to several years through our Staffing Solutions.

Short-term IT staffing is a perfect solution for businesses that have growing IT staffing needs. As projects ramp up, we are there to provide the additional technical resources to get the project done on schedule. As project activity slows, QAT Global takes care of transitioning away resources once they are no longer required. QAT Global also handles all of the human resources functions.

A Strong History of IT Staffing

Our track record with our clients is a testament to our ability to deliver flexible, on-demand IT resource solutions. Our recruitment consultants have worked continuously with some of our clients for over 13 years, and we are proud that they continue to use our services. We take the time to ensure we provide the best value without compromising on the quality of our service and resources. QAT Global appreciates the importance of having the Right Resources, at the Right Place, at the Right Time – so you can control costs while maximizing profitability.

A Personal Approach

Our approach to resourcing requirements is not to rely solely on Internet job boards. Our first step is to use our extensive network of contacts built up over 20 years in the IT services and staffing recruitment industry. We maintain an exclusive database of IT consultants that have worked for us on assignments internally and externally. We respect the importance of matching the person to the environment. QAT Global will go the extra mile to provide highly qualified consultants that blend into your culture and work well with your team. Our consultants are fully briefed on project requirements before they arrive, and we keep them informed about progress and provide feedback at all times.

Benefits of Our Staffing Solutions

  • Saves significant client time and costs during the recruitment process.
  • The Right Resource, at the Right Place, at the Right Time.
  • The ultimate in staffing flexibility.
  • On-demand specialized expertise.

Attracting talented staff is a continuing challenge for IT departments. Today, hiring managers and personnel have an overwhelming number of sources for IT professionals to fill permanent positions, from Internet-based job boards – to advertisements – to personal referrals, all of which may generate dozens of potential candidates for one position. IT projects, and support operations can potentially be crippled by the days to months it takes to manage the hiring process for all of these candidates. Plus, many of these candidates may not even have the most basic qualifications to fill your position. As the demand for certain skill sets continues to increase while the pool of candidates continues to decrease, being able to act quickly will be ever more imperative. Our long track record in the IT contract resourcing industry makes QAT Global ideally positioned to provide the best pool of candidates for permanent placement, capitalizing on our market knowledge and well-honed recruitment process. We also offer the flexibility to tailor our processes to individual client’s needs and to compensate for changes in the employment market. QAT Global can provide fully screened candidates for positions within days of interviews. After the interviews, your recruiter will follow up to offer the position to the selected candidate, schedule a follow-up interview, or refine the search and set up the next set of candidates.

IT Expertise

Because we have our own solutions division, we can call upon our internal IT professionals to carry out technical assessments before submitting candidates to our clients.

Access to Specialist Skills

We specialize in supplying the highest quality candidates in the following roles across a broad range of technologies:

While using contract resources has been one of the most effective ways of dealing with peak workloads, for major projects, there is often just as much time and effort spent on maintaining the team at the right levels during the life of the project.

A Different Approach

Managed staffing solutions can support the peaks and troughs of a project and avoids losing that valuable technical and business knowledge that inevitably walks out of the door at the end of the project when using contractors.

Maintain Continuity and Control

Our managed staffing solutions offer the flexibility to increase and decrease resources with expert knowledge to meet the demands of the business. QAT Global takes responsibility for identifying and appointing the appropriate resources during the project, utilizing the blend of our permanent resources and consultants and maintaining continuity across several phases of a project lifecycle.

Key benefits:

  • Reducing risk for the project
  • Cost-effective budget controls
  • Reduction in recruitment time and effort
  • Reduction in management time
  • Continuity of technical and business knowledge
  • Working with a trusted partner

We provide workforce and technology assessment services to evaluate currently supported applications along with the skills and resources currently utilized to maintain those applications. From the people to the technology in place, the focus of an assessment is to address the goals of the business today, tomorrow, and far into the future.

Keeping an eye on your strategic plan, we will consider how far into the future to project your Assessment. This includes balancing the certainty of short-range planning against the need to plan for longer-range objectives.

An Assessment typically includes:

  • Strategy Assessment – Review of all pertinent strategic plans and directives and the workforce and technology implications of these plans.
  • Environmental Scan – Conduct an internal and external SWOT analysis and supply and demand analysis.
  • Gap Analysis – Analyze your current talent and technology against short and long-term future needs.
  • Gap Closing Strategies – Development of staffing and technology strategies, including a competency model for your recruitment and selection, performance management, and training and development strategies.
  • Evaluation – Establish performance measures to determine the success of your assessment.

We feel that it is crucial to conduct a SWOT, Supply and Demand, and Gap Analysis before we recommend that you implement workforce and technology strategies. Organizations often jump directly to implementing gap-closing strategies without understanding the underlying workforce and technology issues, leading to ineffective strategies and wasted resources. Completing these three analyses is a developmental process that puts the tools in place to do ongoing planning and action to ensure a high-quality organization.

Critical Success Factors

By keeping in mind the following factors, your chances of successfully implementing your assessment will be significantly improved.

  • Top management/leadership support.
  • Support from project managers and HR managers.
  • Resource involvement.
  • Timely, accurate, and open communication.
  • Link to other strategic planning processes.
  • Availability of accurate input data.
  • Detailed implementation plans.
  • Keep it simple. Identify those factors that your assessment must address.

QAT Global’s ability to consistently provide excellent customer service and an extensive offering of services and solutions have resulted in significant repeat business from local and international government and commercial organizations.

Recruiting

QAT Global’s recruiting philosophy is to provide high-quality IT professionals to our clients and adhere to a strict process to ensure that the appropriate consultant is identified for each customer requirement. As an IT Services provider founded and managed by former consultants, the fundamental tenets necessary to ensure client satisfaction, be they public or private sector, consistently remain the same. We have several processes in place to ensure that a candidate meets not only QAT Global’s high expectations but also meets the client’s needs.

Specifically, QAT Global’s recruiting processes and procedures are designed to provide information helpful in determining if a candidate is appropriate for us as well as our client, identify interpersonal skills consistent with our client’s expectations and verify that their technical aptitude meets all qualification requirements. The ability to hit the ground running with real business expertise can be a significant differentiator and enhancement for the typical QAT Global candidate. The screening process for the determination of best-fit candidates is rigorous. QAT Global uses both standard testing procedures and then, when applicable, Question & Answer specifically authored by QAT Global personnel. Employee referrals are also highly encouraged. Like-minded consultants to those already on staff incrementally reduce any question of possible new contractor risk.

QAT Global’s recruiting team meets each morning to assess the developments of the previous day and determine and delegate action items and priorities accordingly. Upon receipt of a new staffing request, they will initially screen internal employees and contacts and, within one business day, determine what is defined as “Internal Candidate Status.” Ideally, ICS will provide a resource(s) that hold a background like that which the client seeks.

QAT Global also invests in those databases found to yield the best pool of candidates outside the internal network of the company. Along with those databases most commonly used, QAT Global utilizes a software solution incorporating client, candidate and resume tracking into one relational database. Client management in the system includes profiling, organizational hierarchy, the population of information such as address and contact numbers and the ability to match candidates with related skill sets as requested via the Task Order. We believe that to provide the best possible service, we must react quickly and decisively. When Human Resources is forced to step outside ICS, this vehicle provides our recruiters the best odds for finding an experienced IT consultant. The average number of total IT professionals within the database is on average 25,000 plus.

Retention

QAT Global recognizes consultants that clients consider to be “a part of our team” are the most valuable resources our firm provides. To ensure we provide a strong base of qualified consulting resources for our clients, QAT Global takes pride in the retention average of our employees. We offer a competitive benefits package and opportunities to grow within the firm. Promotion from within is fostered and encouraged, and the entrepreneurial spirit prevalent in a significant share of the consultants we have found most successful is itself encouraged within QAT Global. Our focus fosters committed employees who believe in and have seen first-hand the difference superior technology can deliver to the user community. This is a fundamental requirement we stress to all persons considering QA Technologies as an employer. We believe that without this mindset, we gravitate toward an everyday contracting concern.

QAT Global’s Human Resources Manager has been with the company since 1999. The role includes maintaining close contact with the consultants and ensuring those matters outside the jurisdiction of the day-to-day technical deliverable responsibilities are being satisfactorily met. Specific examples might include Benefit and Insurance issues, general career path planning, and any miscellaneous support QAT Global may be able to lend to increase employee satisfaction. QAT Global has an exemplary retention rate for foreign national employees. We attribute this success in no small part to the care and diligence taken to ensure smooth transitions to the United States.

Setting employee expectations has been a driving element in keeping QAT Global moving forward. Working together to accomplish set-upon goals, responding to customer issues, enhancing or developing new and innovative ways of doing things, and ultimately delivering for our clients all matter to our company’s overall success.

It Staffing: Your Questions Answered

IT staffing refers to the process of hiring and deploying skilled IT professionals for specific projects or ongoing support. It involves sourcing, screening, and onboarding individuals or teams with the required technical expertise to meet the enterprise’s IT needs.

Individual performers are skilled IT professionals who are contracted for independently to work on specific projects or tasks assigned by the client. They typically have expertise in specific technologies or domains and can be hired on a contractual or project basis.

Client-managed development teams, on the other hand, are dedicated teams of IT professionals who are managed directly by the client. They work directly with the client to understand requirements, collaborate on projects, and provide ongoing support. These teams are typically long-term engagements and can be scaled based on the enterprise’s needs.

A vendor-managed development team is a team of IT professionals provided by QAT Global to work on a client’s project under the direction of a QAT Global Delivery Manager. QAT Global takes care of sourcing, hiring, and managing the team members while the enterprise provides requirements and feedback for the project. This approach allows the enterprise to access skilled resources without the burden of recruitment and team management.

  • Knowledge retention: The team members accumulate knowledge about your systems and can provide ongoing support and maintenance.
  • Scalability: The team can be scaled up or down as per your changing project requirements.
  • High-level of client control and insight: Since your internal staff are responsible for managing the team, you have the ultimate level of control and insight over both the team members and your project.

  • Reduced administrative burden: QAT Global takes care of recruitment, onboarding, project management, and administrative tasks, allowing you to focus on core business functions.
