With an expected growth of 9.94% CAGR between 2024 and 2029, Vietnam is predicted to become a major player in the APAC region's aspirations for renewable energy. 
Over the next few years, renewable energy companies will be looking to take advantage of government initiatives to meet these targets. This growth isn't without its challenges; the global supply chain, the pace of government support initiatives, building permits, and sourcing the right talent are all obstacles Vietnamese projects must overcome to take advantage of the opportunities. 
However, the landscape is changing, and the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) are at the forefront of providing advice and guidance to the Vietnamese government, agencies, and companies on how to meet their objectives in the country. 
In this episode of Staffing Strategies Simplified, NES Fircroft’s Phoebe Nguyen, the business development manager in our Vietnam office, speaks to Bui Vinh Tang, the general manager of GWEC Vietnam. We go into detail on the current landscape of wind energy in Vietnam, the exciting opportunities for wind development in the country over the next few years, and the work that GWEC are doing to support the industry in the region.

The need for skilled and experienced engineers grows as an engineering an engineering project develops. One of the most flexible means of meeting this need is through hiring contractors and placing talent where and when needed. 

Managing this contract labour contingent and the various agencies and suppliers surrounding it becomes more complex over time, and businesses that need to focus resources on their core function—delivering for their clients—can find themselves overwhelmed with the challenges, costs, and effort required to maintain, monitor, and manage their contractors and services.  

This is where a Managed Service Provider, or MSP, can help. A good MSP can provide more than staffing solutions; it can deliver a full talent sourcing and acquisition package, mobilisation, compliance, contractor support, and management. They can take on the full burden of streamlining, managing and evolving your contract labour provision, giving the rest of your business the freedom to focus on other responsibilities. 

In this episode of Staffing Strategies Simplified, NES Fircroft's Andy Thom speaks to Steve Dern, Director for Solutions in the Americas for NES Advantage Solutions. Steve will be sharing his insights on how businesses can identify their current staffing needs and some of the critical signs that companies could benefit from the support of an MSP. Steve details some examples of MSPs' support and the difference between MSPs and RPOs. He also covers the typical stages and processes of the MSP process, the benefits, and examples of past success. 

By the end of this podcast, you’ll have a greater understanding of MSP and whether it’s the right solution for your contract staffing and contingent labour management needs.
