Mercury expands long-standing integration with RSM InTime with new API connectivity
Mercury, the staffing and recruitment platform built on Microsoft technology, has expanded its long-standing integration with RSM InTime, introducing a new API-based integration option for customers.
Mercury and RSM InTime have been successfully integrated for several years, with the existing integration supporting thousands of contractors every week. The new API integration builds on this proven capability, giving customers an additional way to connect Mercury and InTime where an API-led approach better suits their technology strategy and requirements.
The integration connects Mercury's recruitment and staffing platform with RSM InTime, helping recruitment businesses streamline the flow of information between front and back-office processes.
Rather than replacing Mercury's existing InTime integration, the new API connectivity provides greater customer choice. Organisations can continue to use the established integration or take advantage of InTime's API, depending on their requirements and preferred architecture.
Connecting front and back office
By connecting Mercury with RSM InTime, recruitment businesses can reduce duplication and manual data entry between their recruitment, contractor management, timesheet and back-office processes.
For existing Mercury and InTime customers, this builds on an integration model already proven at significant scale. For new customers, it provides greater flexibility in how the two platforms are connected from the outset.
The API integration supports the exchange of key information between Mercury and InTime, helping create a more connected experience across the contractor lifecycle and allowing teams to spend less time moving information manually between systems.
Importantly, the addition of the API option reflects Mercury's wider approach to integration: supporting proven, established connectivity while continuing to adopt modern integration methods and APIs as customer requirements evolve.
Giving customers greater choice
Mercury works with customers across a wide range of recruitment and staffing models, with different technology estates and integration requirements.
By adding InTime's API as an additional integration route, Mercury can provide customers with greater flexibility over how their front and back-office platforms work together, without removing the established integration that customers already rely on.
It also enables Mercury to support organisations that specifically prefer an API-based approach as part of their integration or technology strategy.
Building on an established integration
This latest development is therefore an evolution of Mercury's relationship with RSM InTime rather than the introduction of connectivity between the platforms for the first time.
With thousands of contractors already supported through the existing integration each week, the new API capability combines that established operational experience with an additional, modern integration option for customers.
Mercury will continue to expand its integration capabilities across the recruitment technology ecosystem, helping customers connect the specialist platforms they use across recruitment, staffing and back-office operations.
