RVOH and MBO Partners: Engaging independent workers safely and efficiently
01 Who's in scope for this program?
All internally identified independent workers (i.e., those not recruited or sourced through a staffing company) must engage through this program.
02 Engagement instructions
Use this form to refer independent workers into the program. Your request will route to your business unit's sourcing lead, who will forward it to MBO Partners within three business days. MBO will manage the onboarding process and contact you and the sourcing lead with final charge rate information. MBO will also notify you when the worker is ready to begin the project.
Once MBO Partners has received the referral and begun the onboarding process, you can check on the status anytime through your MBO Onboarding Dashboard. The information displayed in this dashboard is refreshed on a daily basis.
03 Ongoing administration
You'll receive an email notification from MBO each time a worker engaged on your projects submits time, milestones, deliverables, and/or expenses. Follow the instructions in the email to execute the approval.
Please be sure to approve all submissions by 10:00 a.m. ET each Monday. Failure to meet this deadline may delay payments.
04 About MBO Partners
MBO Partners, the independent workforce leader, helps RVOH offer the most efficient and appealing engagement environment possible for its valued independent talent. MBO's flexible engagement services ensure that RVOH can manage contractor relationships efficiently while staying compliant with contractor-related regulations. MBO also provides independents the highest level of advocacy and support throughout their RVOH assignments.
05 MBO's engagement services
MBO directs RVOH-referred independents into one of three engagement services depending on their characteristics, expectations, and business qualifications:
- Vendor Services, a business-to-business engagement service for independent professionals who meet RVOH's criteria to engage as qualified vendors. Independent professionals interested in engaging through Vendor Services must pass a qualification evaluation during the onboarding process.
- Business Services, a unique engagement alternative for independent professionals who wish to work as compliant independent business owners (LLCs or corporations) but need assistance meeting and maintaining the appropriate credentials to do so. Independents engaged through Business Services enjoy the freedom and flexibility of operating an independent business at less cost and with less administration than doing it alone.
- Payroll Services, a conventional W-2 payrolling solution for hourly workers who do not consider themselves true independent business practitioners.
06 Talent sourcing Support
RVO's dedicated Independent Talent Network (ITN) Team Manager will work with you to attract and hire from the pool of 130,000 Talent inside of MBO's marketplace. This Fortune 500-proven Talent exists across 18 skill domains and over 112 specialties, including cyber security, network engineering, finance/accounting, software programming, and business transformation. Note that a small sourcing fee applies for successful placements (15%), which is in addition to MBO's standard engagement service fees. This combined fee is still a fraction of the cost of working with traditional staffing suppliers.
Sourcing process: When you need MBO's help finding a contractor for a role, simply complete this form to start the process and your ITN Team Manager will follow up to finalize the details of the role after approvals are complete.
We can begin the process of recruiting, screening, and submitting vetted Talent for your review afterward. For most roles, MBO's ITN team can deliver high-quality talent in 72 hours or less. You simply select the candidate which best matches your needs and we will then initiate our standard onboarding process.
