For Clients.

Hire world-class independent consultants without excessive markups while fully mitigating co-employment risk.
PrōKo alleviates co-employment risk for corporations while allowing our consultants to do what they do best: consult and solve business problems.

Why the PrōKo Model Works

  • All PrōKo consultants are senior practitioners who direct their own work.​
  • Our rock-solid contracting process clearly explains the relationship of the parties.
  • Every PrōKo consultant is their own small business. 
  • PrōKo consultants are in full compliance of the law and know the IRS guidelines for independent contractor status.
  • PrōKo consultants are covered by $3,000,000 of general and professional liability insurance.
  • All PrōKo consultants are fully vetted. We talk with references, review sample deliverables and do criminal background checks.
  • PrōKo consultants are evaluated at the end of each engagement to guarantee that we are continuing to represent the best.

Advantages​ of Hiring a PrōKo Consultant

  • Top tier expertise at a fraction of the cost. Most PrōKo consultants are “Big 4" alumni. The same talent through a global firm or traditional boutique firm would cost at least 25% more. 
  • Save up to 20% on agency fees. With the PrōKo model consultants do not need to be paid on a W-2 tax basis. This translates into significant savings for the client. (We saved one company over $130,000 in agency fees in just 12 months!)
  • Little-to-no travel expense. Most of our consultants prefer local engagements and we represent talent throughout the U.S.
  • No cross-selling. Our consultants are paid to do what they do best – consult in their area of expertise. We don’t do sales and we don’t have quotas.
  • Round pegs in round holes. Our sweet-spot philosophy always applies. If we don’t have the right talent available, we’ll tell you.

How PrōKo Works

  • You want to hire an independent consultant. If it’s a consultant PrōKo already represents, we draft the Statement of Work, help determine the total budget, and handle the compliance and contracting process. If you found a consultant that is not yet represented by PrōKo and you would like us to, PrōKo interviews the consultant to determine eligibility. (They must be self-directed.) This often saves clients thousands on administrative fees. If you have not yet identified a consultant, PrōKo will help you find the right one. We specialize in human capital services and program management. There is no extra charge to you.
  • The primary contract is between your company and PrōKo Agency, Inc. We can use your company’s master services agreement to speed up the review process, or we can use ours. Either way we usually turn a contract around in a day or two.
  • PrōKo then enters into a subcontract with your chosen consultant and assigns them the Statement of Work. It’s this subcontract that mitigates your company’s co-employment risk.
  • The consultant bills PrōKo and then we bill you, adding our nominal agency fee. We usually invoice monthly or at the end of the project.

Simple. Fast. Easy. We’re here when you need us, and not bugging you when you don’t.
