In one recent engagement, a four-person team of SC-cleared engineers was deployed through our delivery model. By avoiding the inflated rates associated with inside-IR35 contracting, the client saved over £100,000 annually – totalling nearly £500,000 over a typical 4-5 year project cycle. Quality, compliance, and delivery timelines were all fully maintained.
