Openforce launched IC Recruit, a contractor management solution designed to help companies find independent contractors (ICs) who are pre-qualified and ready to work.

“The past 12 months have wreaked havoc on the supply chain in so many ways, including the ongoing driver shortage that has put a strain on businesses that rely on a 1099 workforce to deliver their goods and services,” said Wendy Greenland, CEO, Openforce. “With IC Recruit, Openforce clients can take advantage of our vast network of independent contractors and shorten the time it takes to find and enroll a qualified IC. This solution not only helps our clients by reducing recruiting costs, but it assists independent contractor drivers in finding additional business opportunities.”

From EIN Presswire:

  • New drivers are added daily to IC Recruit, where companies can search by vehicle type and states where they need delivery services. Openforce will then connect them to previously qualified drivers. Contracting companies can choose to contact contractors they are interested in directly or invite them into a pre-enrollment workflow in a single click.

“Our customers are trying to do more with fewer resources, and we want to make it easier for them to scale,” adds Greenland. “With IC Recruit and other tools that we have recently launched like Continuous MVR Monitoring and IC Safety Education, powered by SambaSafety, Openforce customers can create or extend a reliable IC workforce that gives them a competitive advantage.”
