Contracting Myths That Could Be Costing You Delivery Time
Even when the signs are clear, myths about contracting often delay hiring decisions, adding risk, cost, and pressure to already-stretched delivery teams.
Contractors cost more than perm hires
The reality
Day rates may look higher, but you avoid long-term overheads, pensions, benefits, and delays. Speed and flexibility reduce the true cost of delivery.
Commercial risk:
Day rates may look higher, but you avoid long-term overheads, pensions, benefits, and delays. Speed and flexibility reduce the true cost of delivery.
We help you benchmark total cost-to-impact, not just daily rates.
Contractors are harder to manage
The reality
Good contractors thrive on clear deliverables and autonomy. They’re outcome-focused, not tied up in politics or promotions.
Commercial risk:
Delayed hiring or poor delegation slows delivery.
We provide onboarding and outcome-tracking frameworks so every hire is set up for success.
Contractors don’t care about long-term outcomes
The reality
Top contractors stake their reputations on results and care deeply about platform quality. Many work repeatedly within the same ecosystem.
Commercial risk:
Waiting for perm hires sacrifices delivery speed and quality.
We source proven specialists with long-term impact in mind.
Contractors are only for emergency cover
The reality
Contractors aren’t just gap-fillers. They’re accelerators for builds, migrations, and optimization.
Commercial risk:
You miss chances to use them strategically, not just reactively.
We help you build contractor usage into your roadmap, not just contingency.
You lose knowledge when contractors leave
The reality
Day rates may look higher, but you avoid long-term overheads, pensions, benefits, and delays. Speed and flexibility reduce the true cost of delivery.
Commercial risk:
Fear of churn stops you from accessing critical velocity.
We support structured exits that turn temporary hires into lasting capability.
Better to use a consulting company because they absorb the risk
The reality
Most consultancies now work on T&M contracts. The risk still sits with you, at premium rates.
Commercial risk:
Paying more for less control, slower delivery, and scope creep.
Our vetted contractors take accountability for delivery, backed by our governance framework.
Consultancies guarantee compliance and governance
The reality
Governance comes from people and processes, not logos. Weak consultancy oversight still causes overruns.
Commercial risk:
Assuming compliance can mask issues until it’s too late.
Every Tenth Revolution Group contractor is backed by compliance and milestone tracking from day one.
The best people work for consulting companies
The reality
Many top specialists, including ex-consultancy leads, choose independent contracting.
Commercial risk:
Believing otherwise means missing out on the best talent available now.
We give you direct access to elite independent talent without overhead or bench delays.
Partnering for Success
Contractor hiring brings speed, expertise, and flexibility. But managing the process in-house can slow you down, increase compliance risk, and distract your team from delivery.
