Recruit. Employ. Govern.

Workforce delivery models built around your operating requirements.

Choose focused support or a coordinated program. Define responsibilities, commercial terms and performance measures before launch.

01

Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)

Build recruiting capacity around your hiring demand—from targeted sourcing to full lifecycle delivery.

Extend your talent acquisition function with dedicated sourcing and recruitment support. Standardize requisition intake, candidate evaluation and hiring-manager feedback around an agreed delivery plan.

Explore RPO →

End-to-End Enterprise RPO

Create a managed recruitment operation aligned to your business units, employer brand and workforce plan. Suitable for sustained hiring demand or a fragmented recruitment lifecycle that needs consistent ownership.

Source & Screen RPO

Strengthen the top of your recruitment funnel while retaining your internal interview, selection and offer processes. Focus external capacity where sourcing bottlenecks prevent hiring managers from meeting delivery commitments.

Project & On-Demand RPO

Add defined recruitment capacity for a product launch, market entry or hiring backlog. Establish the hiring objective, delivery window and ramp-down plan before mobilizing the team.

02

Employer of Record (EOR) & Payroll Solutions

Coordinate employment administration, payroll and worker onboarding in supported locations.

Assess employment and payroll arrangements for technical talent in supported jurisdictions. Confirm country coverage, the employing party and the allocation of responsibilities before onboarding.

Global EOR & Remote Expansion

Assess an EOR arrangement for technical hires in locations where your organization does not have a suitable employing entity. Establish feasibility before making a location or start-date commitment.

Contractor Classification & Risk Mitigation

Review the proposed engagement before selecting a contractor or employee arrangement. Classification depends on the facts of the relationship and applicable rules, not simply the contract label.

Payroll & Benefits Administration

Create a consistent operating rhythm for payroll inputs, approvals, employee support and reconciliation. Payroll-only support and EOR employment are distinct scopes, with different responsibilities.

03

Managed Service Provider (MSP) & SOW Management

Bring contingent suppliers, workforce spend and deliverable accountability into one governed program.

Bring supplier performance, rate-card controls and SOW acceptance into a common governance model. Connect procurement, HR and delivery owners around workforce demand and spend.

Explore MSP & SOW →

VMS Implementation & Oversight

Establish a consistent Vendor Management System workflow for contingent requisitions, supplier submissions and assignment tracking. Support can focus on configuring a new program or improving an existing VMS operating model.

Statement of Work & Deliverable Governance

Manage SOW engagements around agreed outputs, responsibilities and commercial terms. Keep project deliverables distinct from time-based staffing assignments so acceptance and payment rules reflect the engagement.

Rate Card Standardization & Spend Optimization

Create a consistent basis for reviewing staffing costs across comparable roles and locations. Identify variance and purchasing opportunities without assuming that the lowest rate produces the best outcome.

Engagement comparison

Choose the framework that fits the work.

These models address different responsibilities and can be combined. Final coverage, commercial terms and controls depend on the agreed engagement.

Program controls support risk management; they do not eliminate all employment, legal or operational risk. Appropriate specialist review remains part of scoping.

Vetting & technology integration

Connect your systems. Make evaluation accountable.

Align applicant tracking systems (ATS), vendor management systems (VMS) and assessment workflows with the program. Technology selection and integrations are confirmed after reviewing your environment.

ATS & VMS integration planning

Build around the systems your teams already use.

  • Map requisitions, candidate stages, supplier records and reporting fields.
  • Assess supported APIs, security requirements and approved data-transfer methods.
  • Confirm access, field ownership and integration scope before implementation.

Technical sourcing & role calibration

Define the skills required before expanding the pipeline.

  • Map role families, technical competencies, seniority and location requirements.
  • Align sourcing criteria with the work and agreed assessment scorecards.
  • Review any proposed AI-assisted tools for suitability, data handling and human oversight.

Assessment & evidence review

Make candidate evaluation consistent and job-related.

  • Select relevant technical exercises, scenario discussions or credential checks within the agreed scope.
  • Use structured interview criteria and retain assessment evidence in approved systems.
  • Keep hiring decisions with authorized reviewers and provide a route for exceptions.
Workforce strategy review

Align your talent architecture with the delivery roadmap.

Discuss hiring demand, supplier spend and workforce governance with OceanWell. Identify the scope, expertise and operating model your next stage of delivery requires.

  • Review priority roles, hiring volume and delivery deadlines.
  • Identify gaps in recruitment capacity, employment arrangements or supplier oversight.
  • Discuss responsibilities, system dependencies and the next steps for a scoped proposal.
