Skills-as-a-Service Is The Smart Choice
Here are just a few good reasons to consider skills-as-a-service as an alternative to traditional IT hiring or pay-pay-the-hour consulting arrangements. (Click on an item to expand and read more.)
Predictable Costs
Subscriptions allow you to budget for your projects and needs; no more having to choose between putting needed projects on hold vs. running back to management for additional funds.
Flexibility
Set priorities and allocate resources to any included skill set during any given month; distribution of effort is jointly determined to work toward your stated business goals. In a pinch? Add a role or put the whole team into overdrive for just a month.
Reduce HR Expense
Recruitment, retention, training, and turn-over costs can really drag down your development efforts and put an undue burden on your business. In particular, SharePoint talent continues to be in high demand, out of reach for many, and difficult to manage for just about everyone. Subscription based skills free you from the drama and let you and your team focus on getting stuff done.
Clear Scope
Easily cover gaps in your own team. You know what you're getting, because it's printed on the label. Dividing support activities by technical area makes it easy to understand and manage the services being provided.
Future Proof
Add new roles any time; scale back with advance notice as needed.
Simplified Billing
Pay monthly by credit card or quarterly/annually using company check. Our invoices are easy to understand; we don't play games with labor categories or other billing tricks.
Full Spectrum Coverage
Each skill-set provides for all activities, from junior grunt-work to SME level consulting. No approval is required to escalate when needed.
Accountability
Project management, status reports, and regular meetings are included in the cost of the service.
Compare Us to the Competition
Save Money
For less than the price of our competitors' highest tier plan that covers only 4 skillsets, you can buy 5 skillsets from us. Take a look at our example teams, and you'll see why you won't have to hire The Unicorn to get your project done!
Avoid Lock-in
Add skillsets any time. Scale back with reasonable, 30 days, notice. Easily handle one-time needs as they occur with our exclusive Pinch Hitter service.
More Flexible
Pick and choose from just the skills you need; there's no obligation to purchase bundled skillsets or buy more services than you want.
No Black Box
We provide transparent reporting of activities, staff, and time worked. Our team will work a guaranteed minimum of 20 scheduled hours per skill-set per month - and in most cases we'll work a heckuva lot harder than that!
