When a global standards organisation embraced a fully remote or virtual model, the shift went far beyond replacing desks with video calls. It meant reengineering how work gets done, rethinking platforms, redesigning workflows, and, most critically, reimagining who delivers the work.
As a standards-setting organisation, their work sits at the crossroads of policy, data, and technology, often in partnership with governments, nonprofits, and global institutions.
Delivering on this mission requires in-depth, cross-functional expertise in areas such as finance, communications, marketing, and learning design. These capabilities aren’t always needed full-time, but are essential at critical moments. To stay lean without compromising quality, the organisation relied on on-demand consultants or specialists who could step in swiftly, operate independently, and drive results from day one.
Flexing It helped build a remote-first bespoke team by assembling project-based independent experts across Finance, Marketing and Operations. The goal was to drive business continuity, system transformation, content delivery, and more, all without delays and without onboarding full-time staff.
Each project engagement went through four key phases:
Phase 1 : Project Scoping
The initial step involved aligning on the project scope and key requirements. This included defining the ideal team size, required expertise for each role, timelines, and budgets. Once these inputs were clear, the talent search began from Flexing It.
Phase 2: Team Formation
Relevant consultant profiles were identified by our internal team and shared for review, often simultaneously across multiple roles. Interviews were coordinated, and once finalised, consultants received their contracts and start date to ensure a smooth onboarding.
Phase 3: Project Kick-off
With the team in place, a formal kick-off call was scheduled. This helped bring all stakeholders together, align on scope, confirm deliverables, and set expectations for collaboration and communication.
Phase 4: Administration and Support
Throughout the engagement, coordination remained strong. The account managers for each individual project continued to provide support with invoicing, payments, and troubleshooting, while also checking in regularly with consultants to ensure execution remained on track.
