South Jersey Industries (SJI) lacked visibility into its contingent workforce program, which hampered its ability to scale and succeed.
They adopted Prosperix’s combined VMS/MSP solution, which gave them complete visibility into their contingent workforce. They also gained access to a vast network of talent suppliers and their talent pools to quickly hire at scale.

South Jersey Industries is a publicly-held energy services company with more than $1B in revenue and more than 1,000 employees across various US locations. Their main line of business is delivering natural gas to more than 380,000 residential, commercial, and industrial customers.
Given their scale of operations, they needed more controlled processes and a true system of record to manage their contingent workforce.
Before implementing MSP and VMS Network solutions from Prosperix, South Jersey Industries (SJI) lacked visibility into its contingent workforce program, which hampered its ability to scale and succeed. Some of the more significant challenges Prosperix helped mitigate were:
- Managing more than 10 staffing agencies with no comprehensive technology platform
- Inability to scale hiring caused by lack of access to qualified suppliers and talent pools
- Lack of visibility around headcount and relevant spend analytics associated with incumbent suppliers
- Difficulties with onboarding, invoicing, and performance management of talent suppliers
- Compliance risks with 1099 independent contractor population
- No rate standardization
By taking advantage of network intelligence and the builtin integration with the Crowdstaffing Hiring Marketplace, the Prosperix VMS Network enabled SJI to match open jobs to an expanded network of thousands of diverse talent suppliers and their respective talent pools. This allowed them to fill all open positions quickly across various skill sets and geographies.
