Building Bespoke On-Demand Talent Across Functions For A Global Standards Organisation

A global standards-setting organisation responsible for establishing frameworks that underpin regulatory policy, technological infrastructure, and industry coordination reached a critical juncture in its operating model. They faced the dual challenge of too few hands internally and too little access to the specialised knowledge the work demanded.

The demands faced by them were complex and cross-functional, spanning Strategy, Sales, Program Management, HR and more.

These challenges emerged sporadically and unevenly over time, making traditional, full-time staffing both inefficient and economically unviable.

In response, the organisation began transitioning toward a more distributed and agile operating model. They explored a deliberate reconfiguration, drawing instead on external, high-calibre expertise as needed, and on-demand.

How Flexing It Assisted the Client

By mobilising independent experts across functions, Flexing It swiftly assembled project-based independent experts in the specified domains (Strategy, Sales, Program Management, and HR).

Each project engagement followed a structured process:

Phase 1: Project Scoping

Flexing It worked closely with internal stakeholders to define team size, skill requirements, timelines, and budgets. Once clear, the talent search was initiated.

Phase 2: Team Formation

Our team identified relevant consultant profiles and shared them for review, often across multiple roles simultaneously. Interviews were coordinated, and candidates received contracts, and onboarding schedules were finalised.

Phase 3: Project Kick-Off

Formal kick-off calls were conducted with all stakeholders to align on deliverables, timelines, and collaboration frameworks.

Phase 4: Administration and Support

Dedicated account managers supported consultants and client teams throughout the engagement, handling invoicing, payments, troubleshooting, and ensuring seamless execution.
