A ECS Case Study
The Department of Justice (DOJ) faced a significant challenge in recruiting and retaining cleared, certified technical personnel for its newly built data center in Pocatello, Idaho. This facility was part of a large consolidation effort, and DOJ turned to vendor ECS for staffing solutions to fill roles in systems, network, and storage engineering.
ECS implemented a focused recruitment and retention strategy, assigning a dedicated recruiter and offering incentives like bonuses and education reimbursement. They built local partnerships and created an innovation lab. As a result, ECS achieved 100% staffing within eight months, growing the team from 11 to 63 employees with full certification compliance, and established a low annual attrition rate alongside a successful local internship program.
