Every engagement since 2011 started with a question, asked almost word for word by a workforce planning leader, an HR executive or a CEO. This is one of them:

Whether the shortage is real or a sourcing-strategy problem, and which alternative supply channels close it.
How OXYGEN Answers
Demand quantified per skill and horizon, then supply channels compared in one simulation: hire, build internally, borrow, relocate the work, or automate.
