Simplification isn't the same as doing less
The instinct when a stack gets this sprawling is often to just push through it, hire more admin support, write more internal documentation, accept the five logins as the cost of doing business. But there's a difference between adding more process around a fragmented stack and actually rationalizing it.
Consolidation doesn't mean doing less with your recruitment technology. It means fewer vendors doing the same amount of work, under one data layer, with one support relationship instead of five. For agencies built around Bullhorn, that usually means looking at document generation, call recording, data cleansing, and workflow automation as one decision rather than four separate ones.
