The Tech Maturity Gap: How FEMS Is Shaping the Next Generation of CWM
The Tech Maturity Gap: How FEMS Is Shaping the Next Generation of CWM
As contingent workforce programs evolve, many are finding that legacy tools and fragmented processes can't keep up. The challenge isn't a lack of technology, it's technology maturity - specifically when it comes to automation.
In this on-demand session,we unpack the findings from Everest Group's latest research, Democratizing Contingent Workforce Management: How Next-Generation Freelancer Engagement and Management Systems (FEMS) Are Disrupting CWM Solutions.
Hear from Lokesh Goyal, VP at Everest Group, and Joao Martires, COO of YunoJuno, on why traditional CWM programs are reaching their limits, the tech maturity gap behind it, and how next-generation FEMS are closing the gap to manage the needs of today's contingent workforce.
What you'll learn
- Why more than 60% of organizations are actively seeking modular CWM solutions to automate their programs
- Why most CWM programs sit at a "mid-maturity" stage, with point solutions in place but no end-to-end automation
- How Freelancer Engagement and Management Systems (FEMS) are disrupting traditional CWM models
- A practical framework for evaluating your own program's technology maturity
- The business priorities driving modular technology adoption, and how to build the case internally
- What "good" looks like: the measurable advantages of faster time-to-hire, improved spend visibility, and stronger compliance
