Our goal is to provide connection between IT freelancers and clients of the IT market in a transparent and cost-efficient way.

RETHINKING THE IT T&M MARKET

We work with more and more advanced technologies, methodologies and processes in the projects, yet the necessary external T&M resources are provided on the basis of the operational model of the previous century.
A large number of relatively small, low-resourced, non-transparent IT consulting companies strive to serve the needs of the clients.

Most of the profit goes to the IT consulting companies => both the client and the independent consultant do badly.
The margin is not fixed but “as many as possible”, in case of juniors it can be remarkably high, even 100% (!).
In case of T&M contracts IT “consulting” companies have no or minimal added value and a large part of the day to day work management and HR tasks are also the responsibility of the customer's project organization.
Many times there is a multi-level subcontracting relationship between the client and the consultant.
It often happens that the same external colleagues do the same work on consecutive projects under the names of different companies.

Creating a unified platform instead of IT "consulting" companies where:

___________________________________

We don’t want to be an IT consulting firm; our goal is to connect customer needs with independent consultants (focusing on T&M resources).
We categorize independent consultant colleagues considering different perspectives (competence, professional experience, soft skills, etc.).
We regularly ask clients for a review of their colleagues working with them, which we make available and incorporate into the consultants' profile.
We provide a direct contract channel to customers.
We only contract directly with consultants, there is no multi-level subcontracting.

Consultant colleagues are more satisfied, do not feel that the margin is unreasonably high.
The cooperation depends on the agreement between the client and the consultant so the well-proven external colleagues will not leave the project because the priorities of the company “selling” him may have changed.
In the long run the T&M market will be cleaned up and concentrated (companies operating according to the outdated model will cease).
As a long-term result of the above AZ9 could cover a significant part of the T&M market providing a single point resource access for the clients.
