Third-Party Workforce Management in Field Service

Outsourcing services to third-party providers allows organizations to reduce costs and extend their service capabilities. With outsourced resources, the service business may not only serve customers cost-effectively, but will also be more flexible and prepared for changing demand for services.

However, to ensure outstanding service for clients, external service workers should be managed effectively, and the tasks they perform should be monitored and controlled.
