The Intrinsic Approach
Intrinsic was founded on a completely new way of viewing the supply/demand equation in the ERP space. In fact, we are finding that it applies as well to specialized non -ERP demand as much as it does to the SAP, Oracle, and PeopleSoft needs in the marketplace.
Begin if you will, with the fragmented satellites in today's SAP and other ERP ecosystem, as shown below. Note the pros and cons from the Customer perspective (demand) and from the Resource perspective (supply)… |
Consulting / Contractor Perspective / Pros and Cons of Each |
Customers – be they end clients or the Firms that serve them – continue to have difficulty identifying, screening, contracting, hiring, and keeping experienced talent, let alone growing and retaining their own. Particularly when the distinction between ‘module expertise' and actual business/consulting experience becomes more essential to successful change and increasingly more rare and expensive.
At the same time, Experienced Professionals are faced with employment and contracting options that are almost universally incomplete…whether it's the tradeoff of higher risk ‘independence' for higher compensation, or the missing career progression, market value, or opportunity to grow beyond an IT focus that is so prevalent in industry and larger consulting environments.
To get deep technical and functional expertise combined with ‘consulting skills' such as project management, communication, business process understanding, and just plain cultural fit, customers pay the price.
On the flip side, many times the only way for talented professionals to realize greater recognition for such attributes is to sacrifice stability, rapid career progression, and other benefits… also paying the price.
Enter Intrinsic…
By linking all aspects of the Consulting Value Chain into the Intrinsic Network; by serving as the “One Stop Shop” for high quality consulting professionals with deep package expertise; by providing a storefront for pre-qualified professionals and the clients and consulting firms who need them; and by tapping existing demand through trusted relationships… quality is delivered at the lowest possible cost for the customer and the highest possible reward for Intrinsic professionals. |
