Our Neutral Vendor solution keeps you in control of your preferred agencies
Consistent rates and charges will provide cost certainty across your organisation
Neutral Vendor / Multi-Agency platform
We have a simple to use, web-based, Neutral Vendor Platform called CentralAxis. CentralAxis automates the processes of multi-agency recruitment across permanent recruitment, temporary line cover and ad hoc or emergency shift cover.
Being web-based, CentralAxis can be used anywhere and at any time and accessed by smartphone, tablet or PC. Furthermore, there is no software to download or updates to manage.
Here’s the process for setting you up with our Neutral Vendor Platform:
- We work with you to establish a list of your preferred agencies, ensuring they can deliver to your requirements
- We develop Service Level Agreements for your agencies to sign, outlining the terms and standards of delivery
- We configure CentralAxis to your agreed rates of pay and charges
