Deloitte Global and MBO Partners: Engaging independent workers safely and efficiently
01 Introduction
Deloitte Global uses MBO Partners as its engagement services provider for independent workers (a.k.a. contractors, consultants, freelancers, small services providers, and non-employee workers). MBO ensures proper legal classification for Deloitte Global-referred independents, onboards the workers, offers benefits to those who are eligible, pays workers on Deloitte Global's behalf, and provides day-to-day support.
02 Independent worker engagement process
Once you've obtained GPG approval, use this form to refer independent workers into the program. MBO will manage the onboarding process and contact you with final charge rate information. MBO will also notify you when the worker is ready to begin the project.
03 Ongoing administration
Please be sure to approve all submissions by 12:00 p.m. ET each Tuesday. Failure to meet this deadline may delay payments.
04 About MBO Partners
MBO Partners helps Deloitte Global offer the most efficient and appealing engagement environment possible for its valued independent talent. MBO's flexible engagement services (below) ensure that Deloitte Global 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 Deloitte Global assignments.
05 MBO's engagement services
MBO directs Deloitte Global-referred contractors into one of three US-based engagement services depending on their characteristics, expectations, and business qualifications. If a worker is internationally based, the available options may vary, driven by their location.
- Vendor Services, a business-to-business engagement service for independent professionals who meet Deloitte Global's criteria to engage as qualified vendors. Candidates must meet these criteria and pass a qualification evaluation.
- =
- 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 (or qualify to operate as) true independent business practitioners.
