Partnering for Success: PCG Delivers Just-in-Time Business and IT Resources

Overview

Pillar Consulting Group partnered with a boutique management consulting firm in Chicago to fill immediate skill gaps for private sector healthcare and finance clients. The partnership was a success, with all resources staffed for the full duration of their contracts, plus three receiving extensions to other projects and clients.

Strategy & Approach

The consulting firm faced a challenge with staffing specialized roles for their clients in the healthcare and finance industries. The internal HR team was unable to find the right candidate and the delivery team felt this pain on a daily basis, overwhelmed with requests from their end-clients and unable to keep up. Our client required experienced professionals who could work on immediate projects and deliver results efficiently.


We recognize the importance of not just validating our client’s skill requirements, but also screening for culture and value alignment. We conduct extensive interviews to provide seamless extensions to our client’s team. Pillar Consulting Group employed a swift and rigorous approach to staffing the required positions by leveraging our vast network of professionals. Even with highly specialized requirements, candidates were validated and submitted to the end client within 48 hours of PCG receiving the initial job description.

Outcome and Impact

Pillar Consulting Group staffed the following roles to meet the client's needs:


Each team member provided specialized skills and expertise to the client and was an asset to their projects. Pillar Consulting Group ensured that each resource was dedicated and met the client's expectations.


Pillar Consulting Group's quick and efficient staffing process led to a successful partnership with the boutique consulting firm. Our specialized resources were able to immediately integrate into the client's projects and deliver the required results. The success of this partnership was further validated by the extension of contracts for three resources, a testament to Pillar Consulting Group's expertise in resourcing and commitment to delivering quality results.

Client Testimonial

“We started working with Pillar Consulting in July of 2021 when we were experiencing a significant surge of demand that we could not handle with our current employee base. Pillar was able to step in and very quickly find us qualified candidates to help fill our gaps. Pillar’s ability to understand the scope of work around the resource needs as well as the cultural fit we were looking for was critical in them sourcing qualified candidates in a very short turnaround. Since 2021 we have continued to look to Pillar to help fill our needs whenever we see demand that outpaces our supply. The group at Pillar is extremely responsive and easy to work with making the partnership an easy choice.”
