Multiple Tier 1 Subcontractor Opportunities: |
|
. |
 |
|
|
. |
|
Tier 1
Subcontractors: |
|
. |
|
Tier 1 Subcontractors typically have a national presence with
offices in most major U.S. cities and can offer a full
range of skillsets from both civilian and DoD Security
Cleared individuals. |
| |
|
|
 |
|
|
. |
|
Exclusive Tier 1
Subcontractors: |
|
. |
|
Exclusive Tier 1 Subcontractors
possess a strong
presence in a designated
geographical region. For
those firms with such a strong
dominating database of local
candidates within a specific city
or state then we invite your
participation. |

|
Corp-to-Corp
(C2C) Consultants: |
|
. |
|
In some cases an extremely
specialized skillset is
required by the client.
When a position like this
reaches our HR Dept. we request
the skills of an independent
contractor or consultant to
satisfy the need of our clients. |

|
Full-Time Employee Conversions: |
|
. |
|
From time to time, we may need
the assistance of our Tier 1
Subcontractors to provide us
with candidates who are willing
to work as contractors for 3 to
6 months and then convert over
as a Full-Time Employee to our
client with full benefits and
excellent pay. |
| |
|
|
| |
 |
|
|
. |
|
Referral Fees: |
|
. |
|
We offer a hefty $1,000 Referral
Fee for all of our positions if
your candidate is hired by the
client. The payout of this
Referral Fee isn't made payable
until after the first 90 days
of their employment. |

|
Deactivation of Tier 1 Subcontractors: |
|
. |
|
Warning:
One of the largest contributors to our Tier
1s becoming deactivated is the unethical act of
Cost Bloating. Cost Bloating
- is when we receive the same candidate from
various Tier 1 Subcontractors at a rate that is
simply unrealistic and unexplainable.
For example: We may have a requirement
for a .NET
Programmer and the going rate for this
candidate is anywhere between $45 to $50/hr. but
one firm will decide to submit that same candidate
to us at an hourly rate of $102/hr. versus the
ballpark range of $40-50/hr. from other Tier 1s.
This "get rich overnight" practice is
unacceptable and does more harm than good.
As a Prime Vendor, how can we legitimately
submit this candidate to our client at rates
this outrageous. The client has an
expected range or rate cap that they enforce and
adhere to so it becomes a wasted effort for all
parties involved when greed becomes the
motivation. When situations like this
occurs we normally exercise our option to
dissolve that relationship. |

Contractor Team Arrangements provide a
"win-win" situation for both GSA
Schedule contractors and ordering
activities. |
