Contractor Agent Relationship

When I strike up a conversation with a contractor...
its not long before mutterings of greedy agents, of margins being too high, of what do they do for me anyway... is heard.

Yet when I speak to an agent

soon a frustration begins to show around things like: miss appointments, late with timesheets, think world revolves around them, and all they ever think about is money, with quite a few adding that at times one finds it hard to believe we are actually on the same side....

So that begs the question.

FROM AN END CLIENT POINT OF VIEW is sourcing solutions from an organisation that has its marketing division locked in continuous battle, with its operation division, a useful way of sourcing, what is in reality, a business solution?

What gets lost when they collide in this way? Is there more money being left on the table than meets the eye as a result?

In other words to what extent is the relationship between the contractor and agent important?
