Joint Ventures – Pricing

Our Joint Venture service delivery model is very similar to our Virtual Captive service delivery model. The only big difference is that we will need to establish and operate a separate corporate entity to house the offshore organization in the Philippines. The pricing structure will still be transparent and consist of the following components:

Direct Manpower Costs - These are the total costs of the base salaries, taxes, and benefits of your staff. These costs will be openly shared with you and you can directly budget and control all these manpower-related costs.

Infrastructure Fees - These are the fees we charge for providing all necessary infrastructure and tools including office space, workstation hardware and software, servers and networking equipment, telecommunications, and other facilities.

Administration Fees - These are the costs for managing the joint venture corporate entity. Typically, the joint venture will be managed by MicroSourcing together with a third party legal and accounting firm in the Philippines.

Shared Services Fees - These are the fees we charge for providing management and support services. These typically include operations management, IT and technical support, manpower acquisition, human resources management, finance and accounting, legal support, facility management, security and client services.

Naturally, all these costs will depend on your exact requirements and the resources we will provide to the joint venture. In general, you can expect to save at least 70% on manpower and shared service/overhead costs. Infrastructure fees will generally be 40% lower except for telecommunications which is typically more expensive in the Philippines than in most Western countries.
