Off-Metro Project Services (OPS)

Genesis10’s Off-Metro Project Services centers provide a way for companies to reduce costs while keeping jobs in the U.S. for critical IT and business services.

Over the past decade, many U.S. companies have reduced the unit cost of resources by hiring off-shore services to supplement the workforce at their corporate headquarters, which are typically located in major metropolitan areas.  Off-shoring has its advantages and disadvantages and has proven to be one viable component of a total workforce solution.  

But there’s another increasingly popular option:   Why not reduce costs and gain same-time-zone, same-culture benefits, and ease of doing business by hiring qualified professionals who live in less expensive areas of the United States?  

Genesis10’s OPS centers hire highly skilled workers at a unit cost roughly halfway between on-metro and off-shore.  OPS provides the missing link to existing total workforce solutions by giving companies a viable cost reduction alternative to off-shoring—especially when off-shoring is difficult due to issues related to time zone, culture, skills, regulations, logistics or data security.

Genesis10 locates OPS centers in major micropolitan areas (medium-sized cities from 20,000-75,000 residents), which have a significantly lower cost-of-living than major metro areas.  Through the use of longer-term contracts with our clients, cost-saving over metro services typically range from 20-35%.  Genesis10 provides all on-site OPS center real estate, infrastructure and management, further reducing your costs.
