Our model is not a freelance model nor is it a traditional contract staffing model where contractors are isolated from each other. Your contractor, in our company, is part of a larger team that supports each other, learns from each other, and has access to a dedicated full-time senior mentor with experience and expertise in their area.
If a contractor needs supplemental support, we have an environment that allows for that at no extra cost to you. We have found that this environment increases staff retainage, results in better job satisfaction, and improves overall performance.

We Are Client Focused: We will interface more with each client in the beginning and then less and less over time. Our role is to facilitate the setup of your back-office staff, provide insights, assist with unforeseen requests, and deliver timely and reliable support whenever necessary. However, you, the client, are in control and we are here to explain and help with the process.
We Are Staff Focused. Your staff is a part of a larger, caring, and supportive local organization. Your contractors work to fulfill their job functions but they also have a reliable support system whenever they need assistance. Specifically, your contractor has prompt technical support from peers and a mentor, administrative support, health insurance, and team-building. Your contractor is not isolated.
Cost
A contractor here is roughly one-quarter to one-third of the cost of comparable in-house contractors in the United States. For a quick reference, the following are our average low and high monthly rates per contractor.
