PRO Unlimited pioneered contingent
workforce management nearly 25
years ago when companies were
beginning to recognize the strategic
potential of these workers. That trend
has only accelerated since then, and
PRO has maintained a leadership
position with a highly experienced
staff and a unique value proposition
that combines a truly vendor-neutral
managed service provider (MSP)
and vendor management system
(VMS) solution. PRO’s professionals
help enterprises build well-managed
contingent labor programs, enabling
them to secure the best talent at
minimal cost, while managing risk and
demonstrating compliance.
When PRO Unlimited began in
1991, the workplace was in the early
stages of a dramatic transformation.
Large companies were downsizing
their workforces for lower costs
and greater flexibility, giving rise to
a rapid proliferation of temporary
staffing providers. Suddenly, growing
percentages of the workforce
became contingent workers—temps,
independent contractors, and
consultants.
While many staffing suppliers ad-
dressed the need to recruit and
source workers for this growing
workforce, no one responded to the
ever-increasing need to manage the
overall process.
Part of the problem was that con-
tingent labor programs operated in
myriad silos, and organizations lacked
visibility across all of them. PRO
was founded to tear down those
silos and to provide enterprise-wide
transparency by building connections

OVERVIEW
and managing the processes
between all of the different
contingent workforce stakeholders.
The trends that prompted PRO’s
founding have only accelerated
since then. Contingent workers have
accounted for a larger share of total
employment year after year, with 42
percent of companies planning to
expand their use of contingent labor
in the coming year.1
To manage this burgeoning ecosystem
and the systems and processes within
it, organizations are turning to outside
assistance—services and technology.
For example, since 2010, combined
MSP and VMS solutions have grown
15 percent year over year. Over 44
percent of large companies now have
a managed contingent labor program
in place, and this number is only going
to expand further in coming years.2
While the marketplace has changed
over the years—from new business
requirements and technologies to
additional regulations—PRO’s vision
and mission have remained the same.
PRO welcomes the opportunity to
add to our fold of customers that
have reduced costs, mitigated risks,
and improved talent quality.

solution provider that is

ontingent workers have long
been used for commodity
positions. Staffing needs for
these roles routinely fluctuate. Two
-plus decades ago, when PRO was
founded, the majority of contingent
workers—predominantly sourced
through staffing agencies—were
temporary, largely filling roles
requiring basic skill sets.
But overthe past decade, the landscape
changed, with companies seeking
contingent workers for more highly
skilled and strategic roles. Some initially
speculated the cause was the Great
Recession: companies were concerned
to fill roles with full-time employee and
opted for contingent workers. For these
workers, the assumption was that the
temporary job would either become
permanent or be eliminated once the
economy stabilized.
Yet the percentage of contingent
workers did not decrease as the current
economic recovery picked up steam.
The exact opposite occurred. Not only
are companies embracing this new on-
demand workforce model, but growing
numbers of workers—many of them
with highly sought-after skill sets—also
see advantages in the flexibility of
contracting.3
From the perspective of U.S. workers,
changing demographics and priorities
around work-life balance is changing
how workers view contingent
assignments, with growing numbers
preferring contingent over full-time
work. For their part, businesses value
the flexibility and elasticity realized by
utilizing contingent workers exactly
when they are needed.
As contingent labor becomes more
prevalent—and more strategic—
businesses face a number of
challenges with their contingent
workforce programs today:
Evolution and Growth
of Contingent Labor
4
TRENDS
1. Aligning contingent labor with
corporate objectives. Contingent
labor programs are often in silos
spread across different departments
and business units, with little or no
visibility at the corporate level. Even
if the program is centralized, ensuring
that it stays consistent with company
goals—and that all departments
participate in it—can be challenging.
2. Getting the best talent. The hiring
manager cares more about securing
the right people and less about which
suppliers are used or how they work
with the MSP and VMS providers. But
being successful involves a delicate
balance of market knowledge, optimal
supplier pricing, and good program
management.
3. Controlling costs. As contingent
labor increases as a share of all
workers, CFOs are placing more
scrutiny on the number of workers
and what compensation they receive.
They also want to ensure they are
paying fair, yet competitive market
rates. The challenge ultimately boils
down to securing needed talent at
the lowest possible cost.
4. Ensuring compliance. Penalties are
severe for worker misclassification
and other regulatory violations of
federal, state, and local laws. The
ACA is just one recent addition to
the mix. Businesses are challenged
not only with the need to comply, but
the requirement to demonstrate that
compliance.
5. Mitigating risk. Growing any
business involves risk, but the
contingent workforce presents special
challenges with everything from
intellectual property to regulatory
compliance to maintaining worker
morale.
Building a Business
Case for a Managed
Program
One of the most common
challenges HR and procure-
ment professionals face when
evaluating a managed program
is articulating the benefits of it
to various internal stakehold-
ers. The following are some of
the factors these professionals
need to consider when building
a business case:
• Voice of the stakeholders.
Get the voice of the
customer before going
to market. Primary
requirements and goals
of end users need to be
captured. Identify all of the
key stakeholders, including
legal, finance, IT, security,
and HR.
• Supplier feedback and
insights. Speak with
suppliers to gain their
thoughts and insights
(though those getting
preferential treatment may
not be open to having
a conversation). Most
suppliers are happy to
absorb small markups in
exchange for growing their
business.
• Business outcomes.
Delineate the different
business outcomes that
include a) lower cost, b)
mitigated risk, c) transparent
enterprise-wide visibility of
contingent workforce spend
and utilization, and d) better
talent quality.
• MSP that fits the
business. The MSP needs
to be malleable and flexible,
accommodating different
business requirements and
cultures. Many departments
and business owners are
concerned they will lose
independence and the
supplier relationships they
have developed.
Many high-skill workers now prefer the
flexibility of contracting, and businesses
value the flexibility of using contingent
workers exactly when they are needed.

anaging the cost and risk of
a contingent labor program
is a complex undertaking.
PRO pioneered contingent workforce
management—including the industry’s
first MSP and VMS offerings—and
understands the importance of an
integrated solution.
How We Can Help
PRO’s integrated MSP and VMS
approach enables enterprises to focus
on their business while we hone their
contingent labor programs. There are
several ways we can do so:
1. Full-service managed program.
Our managed services program (MSP)
uses Wand®, PRO’s omnichannel
VMS platform, to manage all aspects
of the contingent labor ecosystem.
PRO has more than 20 years of
vendor-neutral experience in the
supplier community and uses
market-driven pricing and quality
benchmarks to source the best talent
at market rates.
Working from each customer
site, the MSP team provides
strategic and tactical consultative
recommendations and moreover
serves as an outsourced extension
for HR and procurement functions.
These include, but are not limited
to, recruitment, worker relations,
procurement, vendor management, as
well as onboarding and offboarding.
2. 1099 and co-employment risk
management. This service leverages
PRO’s MSP services and VMS
platform to help prevent worker
misclassification and co-employment
situations while ensuring compliance
with various regulations such as
the ACA.
3. Third-party payrolling services.
PRO can become a worker’s employer
of record, thus assuming payrolling
responsibility for temps, independent
contractors, consultants, former
employees, retirees, et al.
4. Advisory services. Our consultants
have deep expertise in the field and
access to the most current data on
trends in the contingent workplace.
Companies wishing to do a top-to-
bottom review of their contingent
labor programs do well to engage
with the experts.

and supports growth from
within, and we offer employ-
ees a strong training program
and ongoing guidance to
support a strong career path
with new and exciting oppor-
tunities. As a global company,
PRO enables employees to
gain and develop exper-
tise with the international
business community and its
contingent labor needs.
For two consecutive years,
PRO has been listed among
the 50 Best Small and Medi-
um Business to Work For by
Glassdoor, based on voluntary
and anonymous feedback
from employees in that trans-
parent career community. This
recognition corroborates what
our leadership has known for
a long time—that employees
enjoy working at PRO, where
their expertise is valued by
every member of the team.
Enterprises can realize significant business
value through effective management and
up-to-date data.
W
hen integrated with the
Wand VMS platform,
PRO’s truly vendor-
neutral MSP solution enables
enterprises to flexibly and creatively
source the talent they need. These
firms are not tied to certain favored
suppliers or limited to the traditional
“temp” or contractor model to secure
workers to move their business
forward. The following are some of
the talent supply channels supported
by PRO’s solution:
1. Staffing firms. Ranging from
national, general-purpose suppliers
to boutique agencies specializing
in specific kinds of talent, PRO
Wand provides a level playing field
for all staffing firms. It also delivers
flexibility in the type of arrangement
with each worker (employee of
record or independent contractor).
And with PRO’s deep experience
and access to data and analytics, you
will be able to optimize the sourcing
process over time by measuring
supplier performance with various
types of talent.
2. Self-sourcing. Companies may
opt to qualify their own candidates
for certain roles. PRO Wand’s
YourSource feature enables
directly sourced workers to be
included in the centralized program.
3. SOW projects. Rather than paying
for work by the hour, more firms are
now opting to pay by the project,
using Statements of Work (SOWs)
executed with SOW suppliers. Such
projects usually require high-skilled
workers, and the supplier serves as
employer of record and assumes the
risk of labor cost overages.
4. Freelancer marketplaces. An
evolution of the online staffing
model, freelancer management
systems (FMS) create a completely
new talent network of independent
workers interested in short-term
projects for specific tasks. PRO Wand
enables enterprises to integrate
workers secured via an FMS into
the main contingent labor program.
PRO’s truly
vendor-neutral
MSP solution
enables enterprises
to flexibly and
creatively source
the talent they
need.

TALENT
SUPPLY
CHANNELS
E
nterprises that optimize their
contingent worker programs
with PRO’s integrated MSP and
VMS solutions can realize significant
business value through effective
management and up-to-date data.
The following are a few benefits re-
alized by many of our customers:
1. Cost savings. With the expertise
of PRO’s MSP professionals and the
latest data, companies can secure
the talent they need without paying
above-market pay rates and supplier
markups.
2. Risk management/mitigation.
Firms can focus on running their
own business while PRO ensures
full compliance with federal, state,
and local laws and standards, while
minimizing all other categories of risk
from a contingent labor program.
3. Transparency and visibility.
Companies can achieve full visibility
into contingent labor usage
across all business units, minimize
“rogue spend” by departments not
participating in the centralized
program, and enable the performance
of every supplier to be measured and
evaluated.
4. Talent quality. PRO’s truly vendor-
neutral approach enables companies
to optimize the talent pool by enabling
more supplier options. This results
in the acquisition of higher-quality
workers over a shorter timeline, as
the organization is able to optimize
the use of providers.
The business results PRO customers see fall
into four general buckets: cost savings, risk
management and mitigation, transparency
and visibility, and talent quality.

  • 1.
  • 2. PRO sought to tear down silos and provide enterprise-wide transparency by building connections and managing the processes between all of the different contingent workforce stakeholders. Founded 1991 Locations Global Headquarters Boca Raton, Florida EMEA Headquarters London, U.K. APAC Headquarters Hong Kong Research and Development Center San Francisco, California CONTACT US U.S. Toll Free +1.800.291.1099 International Toll Free +00 800 778 77877 Email information@prounlimited.com PRO Unlimited pioneered contingent workforce management nearly 25 years ago when companies were beginning to recognize the strategic potential of these workers. That trend has only accelerated since then, and PRO has maintained a leadership position with a highly experienced staff and a unique value proposition that combines a truly vendor-neutral managed service provider (MSP) and vendor management system (VMS) solution. PRO’s professionals help enterprises build well-managed contingent labor programs, enabling them to secure the best talent at minimal cost, while managing risk and demonstrating compliance. When PRO Unlimited began in 1991, the workplace was in the early stages of a dramatic transformation. Large companies were downsizing their workforces for lower costs and greater flexibility, giving rise to a rapid proliferation of temporary staffing providers. Suddenly, growing percentages of the workforce became contingent workers—temps, independent contractors, and consultants. While many staffing suppliers ad- dressed the need to recruit and source workers for this growing workforce, no one responded to the ever-increasing need to manage the overall process. Part of the problem was that con- tingent labor programs operated in myriad silos, and organizations lacked visibility across all of them. PRO was founded to tear down those silos and to provide enterprise-wide transparency by building connections 2 OVERVIEW
  • 3. and managing the processes between all of the different contingent workforce stakeholders. The trends that prompted PRO’s founding have only accelerated since then. Contingent workers have accounted for a larger share of total employment year after year, with 42 percent of companies planning to expand their use of contingent labor in the coming year.1 To manage this burgeoning ecosystem and the systems and processes within it, organizations are turning to outside assistance—services and technology. For example, since 2010, combined MSP and VMS solutions have grown 15 percent year over year. Over 44 percent of large companies now have a managed contingent labor program in place, and this number is only going to expand further in coming years.2 While the marketplace has changed over the years—from new business requirements and technologies to additional regulations—PRO’s vision and mission have remained the same. PRO welcomes the opportunity to add to our fold of customers that have reduced costs, mitigated risks, and improved talent quality. PRO Unlimited Is… • A leading VMS and MSP solution provider that is truly vendor neutral • Named a “Cool Vendor for Procurement and Sourcing, 2015” by Gartner • A top 50 “Best Small & Medium Companies to Work For” in 2014 and 2015 in the Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Awards • MPS and VMS provider with one of the highest and fastest-growing Statement- of-Work (SOW) spend in the marketplace Industry Leadership PRO touts a proven track record of innovation in the industry: 1991 Independent Contractor Classification and Co-Employment Management 1994 Purely Vendor-Neutral Managed Service Provider (MSP) 1995 Vendor Management System (VMS) 2002 Global MSP Offering 2004 Statement-of-Work (SOW) Management 2014 Native Mobile VMS Apps for iOS 2015 Native Mobile VMS App for Android 2015 Native VMS Wearable for Apple Watch Use of contingent labor continues to expand rapidly. Forty-two percent of companies plan to expand their use of contingent workers this year. 3
  • 4. C ontingent workers have long been used for commodity positions. Staffing needs for these roles routinely fluctuate. Two -plus decades ago, when PRO was founded, the majority of contingent workers—predominantly sourced through staffing agencies—were temporary, largely filling roles requiring basic skill sets. But overthe past decade, the landscape changed, with companies seeking contingent workers for more highly skilled and strategic roles. Some initially speculated the cause was the Great Recession: companies were concerned to fill roles with full-time employee and opted for contingent workers. For these workers, the assumption was that the temporary job would either become permanent or be eliminated once the economy stabilized. Yet the percentage of contingent workers did not decrease as the current economic recovery picked up steam. The exact opposite occurred. Not only are companies embracing this new on- demand workforce model, but growing numbers of workers—many of them with highly sought-after skill sets—also see advantages in the flexibility of contracting.3 From the perspective of U.S. workers, changing demographics and priorities around work-life balance is changing how workers view contingent assignments, with growing numbers preferring contingent over full-time work. For their part, businesses value the flexibility and elasticity realized by utilizing contingent workers exactly when they are needed. As contingent labor becomes more prevalent—and more strategic— businesses face a number of challenges with their contingent workforce programs today: Evolution and Growth of Contingent Labor 4 TRENDS
  • 5. 1. Aligning contingent labor with corporate objectives. Contingent labor programs are often in silos spread across different departments and business units, with little or no visibility at the corporate level. Even if the program is centralized, ensuring that it stays consistent with company goals—and that all departments participate in it—can be challenging. 2. Getting the best talent. The hiring manager cares more about securing the right people and less about which suppliers are used or how they work with the MSP and VMS providers. But being successful involves a delicate balance of market knowledge, optimal supplier pricing, and good program management. 3. Controlling costs. As contingent labor increases as a share of all workers, CFOs are placing more scrutiny on the number of workers and what compensation they receive. They also want to ensure they are paying fair, yet competitive market rates. The challenge ultimately boils down to securing needed talent at the lowest possible cost. 4. Ensuring compliance. Penalties are severe for worker misclassification and other regulatory violations of federal, state, and local laws. The ACA is just one recent addition to the mix. Businesses are challenged not only with the need to comply, but the requirement to demonstrate that compliance. 5. Mitigating risk. Growing any business involves risk, but the contingent workforce presents special challenges with everything from intellectual property to regulatory compliance to maintaining worker morale. Building a Business Case for a Managed Program One of the most common challenges HR and procure- ment professionals face when evaluating a managed program is articulating the benefits of it to various internal stakehold- ers. The following are some of the factors these professionals need to consider when building a business case: • Voice of the stakeholders. Get the voice of the customer before going to market. Primary requirements and goals of end users need to be captured. Identify all of the key stakeholders, including legal, finance, IT, security, and HR. • Supplier feedback and insights. Speak with suppliers to gain their thoughts and insights (though those getting preferential treatment may not be open to having a conversation). Most suppliers are happy to absorb small markups in exchange for growing their business. • Business outcomes. Delineate the different business outcomes that include a) lower cost, b) mitigated risk, c) transparent enterprise-wide visibility of contingent workforce spend and utilization, and d) better talent quality. • MSP that fits the business. The MSP needs to be malleable and flexible, accommodating different business requirements and cultures. Many departments and business owners are concerned they will lose independence and the supplier relationships they have developed. Many high-skill workers now prefer the flexibility of contracting, and businesses value the flexibility of using contingent workers exactly when they are needed. 5
  • 6. 6 M anaging the cost and risk of a contingent labor program is a complex undertaking. PRO pioneered contingent workforce management—including the industry’s first MSP and VMS offerings—and understands the importance of an integrated solution. How We Can Help PRO’s integrated MSP and VMS approach enables enterprises to focus on their business while we hone their contingent labor programs. There are several ways we can do so: 1. Full-service managed program. Our managed services program (MSP) uses Wand®, PRO’s omnichannel VMS platform, to manage all aspects of the contingent labor ecosystem. PRO has more than 20 years of vendor-neutral experience in the supplier community and uses market-driven pricing and quality benchmarks to source the best talent at market rates. Working from each customer site, the MSP team provides strategic and tactical consultative recommendations and moreover serves as an outsourced extension for HR and procurement functions. These include, but are not limited to, recruitment, worker relations, procurement, vendor management, as well as onboarding and offboarding. 2. 1099 and co-employment risk management. This service leverages PRO’s MSP services and VMS platform to help prevent worker misclassification and co-employment situations while ensuring compliance with various regulations such as the ACA. 3. Third-party payrolling services. PRO can become a worker’s employer of record, thus assuming payrolling responsibility for temps, independent contractors, consultants, former employees, retirees, et al. 4. Advisory services. Our consultants have deep expertise in the field and access to the most current data on trends in the contingent workplace. Companies wishing to do a top-to- bottom review of their contingent labor programs do well to engage with the experts. OUR SOLUTION “Next-generation evolutionary VMS solutions like PRO’s Wand platform will help organizations drive efficiencies and visibility within the complexities of the modern contingent workforce umbrella.” – Christopher J. Dwyer, Sr. Analyst, Ardent Partners

  • 12. W hen integrated with the Wand VMS platform, PRO’s truly vendor- neutral MSP solution enables enterprises to flexibly and creatively source the talent they need. These firms are not tied to certain favored suppliers or limited to the traditional “temp” or contractor model to secure workers to move their business forward. The following are some of the talent supply channels supported by PRO’s solution: 1. Staffing firms. Ranging from national, general-purpose suppliers to boutique agencies specializing in specific kinds of talent, PRO Wand provides a level playing field for all staffing firms. It also delivers flexibility in the type of arrangement with each worker (employee of record or independent contractor). And with PRO’s deep experience and access to data and analytics, you will be able to optimize the sourcing process over time by measuring supplier performance with various types of talent. 2. Self-sourcing. Companies may opt to qualify their own candidates for certain roles. PRO Wand’s YourSource feature enables directly sourced workers to be included in the centralized program. 3. SOW projects. Rather than paying for work by the hour, more firms are now opting to pay by the project, using Statements of Work (SOWs) executed with SOW suppliers. Such projects usually require high-skilled workers, and the supplier serves as employer of record and assumes the risk of labor cost overages. 4. Freelancer marketplaces. An evolution of the online staffing model, freelancer management systems (FMS) create a completely new talent network of independent workers interested in short-term projects for specific tasks. PRO Wand enables enterprises to integrate workers secured via an FMS into the main contingent labor program. PRO’s truly vendor-neutral MSP solution enables enterprises to flexibly and creatively source the talent they need. 12 TALENT SUPPLY CHANNELS
  • 13. E nterprises that optimize their contingent worker programs with PRO’s integrated MSP and VMS solutions can realize significant business value through effective management and up-to-date data. The following are a few benefits re- alized by many of our customers: 1. Cost savings. With the expertise of PRO’s MSP professionals and the latest data, companies can secure the talent they need without paying above-market pay rates and supplier markups. 2. Risk management/mitigation. Firms can focus on running their own business while PRO ensures full compliance with federal, state, and local laws and standards, while minimizing all other categories of risk from a contingent labor program. 3. Transparency and visibility. Companies can achieve full visibility into contingent labor usage across all business units, minimize “rogue spend” by departments not participating in the centralized program, and enable the performance of every supplier to be measured and evaluated. 4. Talent quality. PRO’s truly vendor- neutral approach enables companies to optimize the talent pool by enabling more supplier options. This results in the acquisition of higher-quality workers over a shorter timeline, as the organization is able to optimize the use of providers. The business results PRO customers see fall into four general buckets: cost savings, risk management and mitigation, transparency and visibility, and talent quality.
