Offshore Staff Leasing Solutions

In the previous section, we had a look at What Outsourcing is and what the Benefits and Drawbacks of outsourcing are. We als looked at Outsourcing Models and how providers Price their outsourcing solutions. In this section we will take a look at our outsourcing services starting with our standard outsourcing solution: Offshore Staff Leasing.

Why Offshore Staffing?

In our experience, most clients are looking for cost effectiveness, transparency and direct control. Our standard outsourcing solution was built with this in mind. The guiding principle behind offshore staff leasing is a clear split in responsibilities:

How does it work?

The full process is explained in the section on How we Provide our Outsourcing Solutions . In summary: we take your requirements and recruit candidates to fill in the needed positions. Both of us will screen the candidates and you will be able to make your final picks on who gets to join your offshore team. Your offshore team will be housed in our offices in the Philippines and we will provide workstations, office infrastructure, internet connectivity and operational management through our HR, technical support and management teams. You can directly coordinate with your offshore team and distribute daily tasks. We will report on your team's performance and assure a smooth running offshore operation.

How much does it cost?

All the pricing details are given in the Pricing section. We use a very simple and completely transparent pricing structure whereby we will charge you per fulltime employee (FTE) per month using the following formula:

Monthly Fee per FTE = (salary and benefits) + $575

This simple cost structure will give you full control over your costs and you will be allowed to directly negotiate salary and benefits with candidates before you select them for your project.

What are the Minimum Requirements for Staff Leasing?

As long as you need at least one fulltime employee per month for an indefinite period of time then you can apply our offshore staffing solution. In some cases we may even be able to setup a part-time solution where you share an employee with one or more of our other clients.

Advantages of Offshore Staffing

There are several reasons why the majority of our clients choose offshore staff leasing:

• Most Cost-Effective
  Offshore Staffing is by far the most cost-effective outsourcing model. As explained in the Outsourcing Pricing section, most providers have to build in certain risk margins to cover non-billable hours and other contingencies. Since all our staff is working fulltime for a single client, we do not have to charge such risk margins. For more details visit read about Our Pricing
  
  
• 100% Transparency
  The costs of your offshore team are 100% Transparent and completely in your control. You will know exactly what your team members are getting in salary and benefits and you are free to negotiate these terms directly with them at any time. This is unique in the outsourcing industry.
  
  
• Direct Control
  Your offshore team is 100% in your own Open & Direct Control . All employees are staffed exclusively on your project so you will not have to worry about availability. Through Skype/Webcam/IP Cam, you can directly manage your team remotely. You are furthermore welcome to visit and work with your team in the Philippines anytime.
  
  

The purpose of our offshore staffing solution is to simulate your domestic operation as closely as we can, making geographic distance the only real differentiating factor. Virtually all our clients use this offshore staffing model and although we are able to work with alternative models, it is the model we strongly recommend.


At one point or another your offshore team might become such a big part of your business that you want to own and operate it yourself. In the next section we will have a look at the services we provide to companies that want to take this step. This solution is called Build-Operate-Transfer

If your project has a limited scope or duration then the staff leasing solution described here might not be applicable. In such cases we can work out a different custom solution. We will discuss this in more detail in our General Outsourcing Services
