Bob constantly works to add value with every interaction. Our variety of Engagements give client organizations cost control and flexibility, without the added cost of benefits or the standard workweek. Instead we are completely flexible with each category below having its own advantages.

Fractional Agreement

When a program of work includes regular, ongoing assignments for Bob Payton Consulting to complete, a Fractional agreement is typically the best engagement.

  • A pre-determined number of hours each month are reserved for your work, ensuring the highest priority to completing your assignments

  • Flat monthly invoicing removes the fear of the unknown

  • Roll-over hours ensures you get benefit for each hour reserved

  • Hours worked in excess of agreement are banked toward future months, not invoiced

  • Standard hourly rates are discounted depending on total hours per month in agreement

  • A bi-annual review keeps time/invoicing balanced in the agreement

  • Continuous monitoring of the competitive and compliance landscape for opportunities or threats

Retainer

Services that are urgently needed but unscheduled benefit more from a Retainer engagement.

  • Priority time is made available, depending upon the urgency of the matter

  • Monthly invoicing based on agreement base hours, with any additional hours billed at discounted rate.

  • Standard hourly rates are discounted depending on number of hours in agreement structure

  • Continuous monitoring of the competitive and compliance landscape for opportunities or threats

Hourly

Totally flexible depending on the client needs at any given time.

  • Work is completed in a timely manner on an agreed to schedule

  • A variable cost with hours worked and monthly invoicing both based on current demands

Project

From time to time there are client needs that can be met within a particular time frame or for a limited purpose. After an understanding of expectations and time involved, Bob Payton Consulting can provide a hard quote to ensure cost containment.

  • An employee out for an extended but set number of weeks

  • An upcoming major event may require additional workload to prepare

  • A customer contract with additional expectations that need close monitoring for an initial period
