Cutting Costs in Half by Establishing an Internal PMO
November 2, 2023

CHALLENGE

For 20 years, a multinational healthcare services company relied on the outsourcing support of a managed services provider to fulfill their hiring needs. Upon evaluating the deal later on, the client learned that not only were they overspending on resources, but that they lacked all contract proprietary rights. They did not own any of the documentation or standard operating procedures in place in their own company, handcuffing them to their old vendor.


SOLUTION

As the client brainstormed how to move away from their former vendor, they learned that the first step was to build an internal project management office (PMO) so they had full control over their own projects, could build in-house expertise, and create their own documentation and standard operating procedures. They chose to partner with Optomi to facilitate these initiatives.

THE OPTOMI DIFFERENCE

Optomi is skillset-focused. Our recruiters are five times more certified than the rest of the IT Staffing industry. Their deep network of candidates within the most in-demand technology sectors is at your fingertips.


Based on the client’s goals, we:

  • Fully staffed a team of over 70 consultants
  • Sourced 90% of candidates with healthcare-specific experience per the client’s request 


RESULTS

In the initial stages of the partnership, Optomi worked closely with the client to gain a full understanding of the organization’s specialized healthcare skills, projects, and corporate culture. After fully grasping the client’s initiatives and industry-specific knowledge, our team was prepared to provide the necessary methods and tools to succeed in the client’s fast-paced environment.


Optomi staffed a team of Program Managers, Project Managers, and Project Coordinators to enable the client to reclaim ownership of their own projects. After implementing new best practices and standard documentation, the client’s costs were reduced by 50%. The foundational knowledge built into the newly formed PMO now enables the client to shift more work away from their former vendor, allowing them to continue eliminating wasteful spending and continue building a more sustainable, cost-efficient team for the future.
