How does pricing work?
A simple hourly or monthly rate per specialist, typically up to 50% below the fully loaded cost of an equivalent local hire. No recruiting fees, no benefits, no overhead. You'll have an exact number before anything starts.
How fast can a specialist actually start?
Most requests are matched within days. After your approval, the first days cover your standards and environment, and production deliverables begin in the first week.
Do your specialists really have U.S. project experience?
Yes. Every specialist we place has produced deliverables for U.S. infrastructure, utility or architectural projects: DOT workspaces, state CAD standards, utility coordination and U.S. sheet conventions are familiar ground, not a learning curve on your clock.
How do we communicate day to day?
However your team already works: Teams, email, your project management tools. Your specialist joins your standing calls and responds during your business hours, like any other member of your production staff.
What about time zones?
Specialists keep substantial overlap with U.S. business hours, including your core collaboration window. For some firms the time difference is an asset: redlines sent at 5 PM come back resolved the next morning.
Who controls quality?
You do, the same way you would with in-house staff: your standards, your QC process, your sign-off. On top of that, 2F reviews deliverables before they reach you, so your QC pass catches less.
Who owns the work product?
You do, fully and from the first save. All work happens in your environment under your file structure, and our agreement assigns all rights in the deliverables to your firm.
How is confidentiality handled?
We sign your NDA before seeing any project data, and every specialist is bound by confidentiality terms individually. Client names and project details are never used in marketing without written permission.
Is our data secure?
Work happens inside your environment: your server, your BIM 360 or ProjectWise instance, your access controls. Files don't live on our side, and access is revocable by you at any moment.
Do we need to provide software licenses?
Whatever is simpler for you. Many firms assign a seat from their existing pool so all work stays in their environment; otherwise we can discuss licensing as part of the engagement setup.
Can we interview the specialist first?
Always. You review their project history and interview them before any commitment. If it's not the right fit, we propose someone else at no cost.
Is the specialist dedicated to us?
Yes. A full-time seat means that person works only on your projects. The value compounds: by month two they know your standards as well as your own staff.
Can we scale up mid-project?
That's the point of the model. Adding a second or third seat in an active discipline usually takes days, and the new specialist inherits the standards knowledge from the existing engagement.
What if we only need help for a few weeks?
Short-term support is a normal engagement for us, not an exception. A three-week relocation package or a one-month drafting push gets the same senior staff as a multi-year program.
What happens if the specialist isn't working out?
Tell us. We address it immediately, and if needed we replace the specialist with a documented handover at no cost to you. There's no long-term contract holding you to a bad fit.
