Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about ERP staffing with Atticus

Why is the Atticus model different?

Most offshore providers drop you after placement. We don't. You get recruiting, retention management, and upskilling tied into one system. 48-hour shortlists, 91% retention, and the frameworks to actually scale without the usual offshore headaches.

How do you keep staff from churning?

Career paths, structured onboarding, and performance tracking. The same people stay on your work. Knowledge doesn't walk out the door. Our retention rate is 91% because we treat this like talent management, not transactional staffing.

How fast can you actually find candidates?

72 hours for 3-5 vetted profiles. We're not starting from scratch. We have direct access to the Philippines' ERP talent market. Speed, but without the quality tradeoff.

How do you protect our margins?

We sync staffing to your actual work, so you're not paying for bench time or fixing bad hires. Technical screening upfront, utilization planning, and predictable delivery. Most clients save 50-55% vs US-based resources while improving project margins.

What if we've tried offshore before and it didn't work?

That's most of our clients. The issue usually isn't offshore itself. It's high turnover, communication gaps, or losing control. We fix that with Philippines-based talent (native English, business-savvy), structured onboarding, and ongoing management support. We handle what made it fail last time.

Can we flex up or down as project demand shifts?

Yes. That's the point. Scale from 2 to 30 during peak periods, then back down without layoffs or guilt. You keep the agility of contractors without sacrificing continuity or quality.

What ERP systems and roles do you cover?

NetSuite, SAP, Acumatica, Odoo. Developers, admins, consultants, plus ERP finance, accounting, BI, and infrastructure roles. If you're implementing or building mission-critical ERP applications, we've got the people.

Do we need to be "offshore ready" to work with you?

Not necessarily, but it helps. If you don't have clear accountability systems or offshore leadership development, you'll hit friction. We offer an Offshore Readiness Assessment and phased support to set you up right so offshore becomes strategic, not just cheaper.
