The efficient management of workforce transitions is paramount. One model gaining traction in organisations across the UK, for streamlining joiners and leavers IT requirements is outsourcing, particularly from a device perspective.

Outsourcing IT tasks related to onboarding and off-boarding processes offers firms a strategic advantage by leveraging specialised expertise and reducing the operational burden on internal IT teams. It also provides the ability to scale up/down quickly to meet business needs.

Ensuring that new employees seamlessly integrate into the company’s technological ecosystem requires speedy device provisioning, software installations, network access setups and often deliveries to remote workers. Outsourcing these tasks to expert partners guarantees a swift, standardised and positive onboarding experience, reducing the time it takes for new hires to become fully operational.

Similarly, when employees leave, managing the retrieval of devices, securing sensitive data and decommissioning access points are crucial to maintaining the organisation’s security posture and recovering company assets. Outsourcing these leavers IT requirements ensures a systematic and thorough process, minimising the risk of data breaches or unauthorised access after an employee’s departure.

Outsourcing on/off boarding of employees offers scalability and flexibility. External partners can efficiently handle varying volumes of devices during periods of high turnover, adjusting resources as needed. This prevents overburdening internal IT teams and ensures that the company’s device infrastructure remains agile and responsive to changing workforce dynamics.

In essence, outsourcing joiners and leavers IT requirements will enhance operational efficiency, cybersecurity and adaptability that’s for sure – if you secure a great partner.
