From talent gaps to business growth: Empact IT’s partnership with Ensitech
About Empact IT
Since 1998, Empact IT has helped its clients make sense of their data. The company built its business around a simple but powerful mantra: Integrate. Automate. Visualize. Through SaaS solutions, custom development, and process automation consulting, Empact IT gives its clients the tools to actually use the data they collect.
The company carries over 200 years of combined team experience across industries and technologies. It holds status as a Microsoft ISV partner, its Matrix for Integration (MxI) platform is listed on the Azure Marketplace, and the team has deep expertise in the Microsoft Power Platform, including Power BI, Power Apps, and Power Automate.
As its business has grown, so has the need for specialized technology talent. That is where its relationship with Ensitech became an important part of the company’s growth strategy.
The challenge: growing without limiting opportunities
By 2024, Empact IT was growing quickly, and growth brought a familiar problem: finding the right people fast enough to keep up with it.
By that point, Empact IT was already working with nearshore providers. The goal was not simply to add another vendor, but to diversify the sources of talent available to its teams and reduce dependency on a limited pool of resources.
As Shawn Pinto, COO at Empact IT, explains, the company had long used a staff augmentation model and needed partners who could understand their business, the roles they needed to fill, and the type of professionals who would be a good fit.
That understanding mattered because they needed qualified, pre-screened professionals who could be introduced to its team without adding unnecessary steps to the hiring process.
The ability to find professionals across different levels of seniority and specialized skill sets, all at competitive rates, was also important.
The solution: a nearshore talent partner built around flexibility
Ensitech came in as an option for Nearshore IT Staff Augmentation, connecting Empact IT with specialized talent across Latin America. What set the relationship apart was Ensitech’s understanding of how Empact IT’s processes worked day to day.
Empact IT valued a partner that understood not only what roles needed to be filled, but also how the company itself operated and what “the right fit” actually meant for the company. Candidates came pre-screened and pre-qualified, which meant Empact IT could move straight to decisions instead of spending time on early-stage filtering.
Since 2024, Ensitech has provided more than a dozen specialists, primarily focused on databases and SQL, as well as professionals with experience in:
SQL, Azure, PostgreSQL, Power BI, SSIS, Node.js, Vue.js, TypeScript, RESTful APIs, Angular, Power Apps, SQL Server, JavaScript, Power Automate, ETL, DevOps, Business Analysis, Agile, .NET, React and DAX.
Ensitech also stayed involved after placement, checking in regularly with both the resources and Empact IT to see how things were going. Shawn pointed to that ongoing support, along with the benefits Ensitech provides on its side, as something that lined up with a value Empact IT cares about deeply: retention.
“We grew quickly. And we knew we needed to get talent quickly, and you all were able to provide it.”. Shawn Pinto, Empact IT’s COO, pointed out.
The results: more capacity, more projects, more growth
The partnership has continued to expand with Empact IT adding new technology talent through Ensitech year after year.
That additional capacity has helped Empact IT take on more work, meet customer needs, and complete projects faster. Most importantly, Shawn describes a direct connection between the ability to access talent and the company’s broader business growth:
“We have been able to grow our business. We’ve been able to satisfy our clients’ needs. We get projects done in a quicker manner. There’s no other way to say it. It’s an absolute fact. It’s a direct correlation to us growing the business, as well as being able to add some new clients along the way.” – Shawn Pinto
For a company that prioritizes saying yes to customer opportunities, having access to qualified technology professionals has become a practical part of its growth model.
A partnership built for growth
“I’d say [to companies that do not yet know Ensitech] if speed is important, if competitive rates are important, if you know you want to find quality individuals and, I don’t say this lightly, an organization that cares about its staff, you definitely would want to go with with Ensitech. I think [they] do a great job with that.”
