Consultants do provide value

I agree with another writer from London where he said ?If you get a good Consultant who has substantial experience and expertise you will get excellent value for money.? Consultants and contractors are dependent upon their record for delivery and productivity, many times often over full time staff who are happy to accept the pay check. Their reputation and next contract is dependent upon this. Many consultants and contractors work longer hours and directly invest in themselves (education, further training, etc.), thereby providing direct value to their clients.

They also bring vast experience working amongst various clients that can be of benefit. They may be focussed on revenue and sustainability of a revenue pipeline, but isn?t that what most permanent employees are also after, i.e. to be recognised and well remunerated. Just to reiterate, their revenue pipeline is built upon their track record.
