SAN FRANCISCO, March 29, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- AstraZeneca, a global, science-led, patient-focused biopharmaceutical company, has selected Utmost and its modern Extended Workforce System (EWS) to manage their external workforce, including 34,000 contingent and outsourced service providers across 100 countries. Utilizing Utmost Front Door, they not only have the visibility to know who their workers are and where they work, they are able to make informed talent decisions, and plan their workforce mix in a scalable way.

At Utmost, we are transforming how work gets done. This means finding a more strategic approach in talent channel selection and talent engagement. With Utmost Front Door, organizations like AstraZeneca can adjust or influence future hiring decisions in real-time, which guides them to available options to meet their demands.

"AstraZeneca is thrilled to have selected Utmost to support the development of our Total Workforce strategies," said Will Dempsey, Director, Talent Acquisition – External Resource Management, Systems, Processes & Experiences. "Our externally managed resources continue to play a crucial role in meeting the organisation's strategic objectives and ultimately, fulfilling our purpose – to push the boundaries of science to bring life changing medicines to patients. Utmost now gives us a scalable solution to manage this extended workforce whilst also increasing the visibility of our total workforce in over 100 countries and supporting the business in securing the talent we need to get work done."

Utmost's worker-centric extended workforce system allows organizations to manage all external resources, including independent contractors, project-based and SOW workers, outsourced resources, gig workers, contractors, and freelancers, just as they do for their employees, with full visibility of individuals, skills, and of course, spend. Front Door provides one single, consistent, and manager friendly place to request work.

"We're delighted to welcome AstraZeneca to our growing customer base. With Utmost, we've enabled global workforce visibility, 'in-the-moment' labor decisions, and access to increasing talent channels they've not had in the past," said Annrai O'Toole, CEO of Utmost. "Utmost is building innovative solutions for the enterprise and its extended workforce so companies can use their economies of scale to drive efficiencies in one of the fastest growing sectors of their workforce."

Today, organizations struggle to find highly-skilled talent and must quickly adapt to a changing market and workforce. The business just needs to get work done. Our focus is to make it easy for them to do the right thing and difficult to do the wrong thing with a focus on superior user experience.
