Scaling a workforce

with demand

The challenge

A leading e-commerce company known for natural and organic products saw demand skyrocket during the COVID-19 crisis. Their workforce needs didn’t just increase, they multiplied, and they needed reliable people fast without lowering their hiring standards.

The solution

  • Built a multi-state sourcing plan anchored in three MSIL locations: Batesville, Indiana; Reno, Nevada; and Pennsylvania
  • Centralized sourcing and oversight while tapping regional talent pools for faster hiring
  • Kept teams on site at all times to support staff, managers, and day-to-day operations
  • Layered in a Management Service Provider (MSP) and Vendor Management Software (VMS) for tracking and visibility
