Plan Now | Flexible Staffing CORE+Flex Strategy

Tell us how many skilled workers you need and what trade

Tradesmen’s proven CORE+Flex methodology enables contractors to run with a leaner full-time crew and, as workload exceeds what they can handle, we flex in skilled trades precisely when needed to optimize the work-to-worker ratio.

Tradesmen can tailor a skilled trade staffing solution for you that:

  • Maximizes workforce productivity
  • Reduces hiring costs and challenges
  • Minimizes unemployment expenditures
  • Lessens overtime costs
  • Mitigates workers’ compensation risk and costs

We’re proud to provide Commercial, Industrial and Residential Staffing, as well as  Manufacturing Staffing support with craftworkers who emphasize Safety, Productivity and Craftsmanship.

Tradesmen’s CORE + Flex staffing strategy supports contractors nationwide as COVID-19 restrictions ease, the economy rebounds and construction ramps up. This proven strategy positioned thousands of contractors to increase profit margins as the economy slowly rebounded over a three-year period following the Great Recession in 2009.

Experts predict the COVID-19 economy will improve much more quickly than the Great Recession economy—specifically, they expect improvements in months versus years. Contractors who leveraged the CORE + Flex labor staffing approach during the Great Recession are implementing it again now.

With a CORE + Flex skilled labor strategy, Tradesmen provides a no-cost labor productivity consultation. We help contractors plan to run a lean staffing solution comprised of their core full-time workforce. As project workload exceeds what all of their A-level and some of their B-level workers can handle, they bring in contract skilled craftworkers on a precisely-as-needed basis to meet workload demand.

As work diminishes, contractors remove Tradesmen craftworkers from their project’s crew until their new, reduced core can manage all work. As a result, contractors experience substantial profit margin gains because the CORE + Flex strategy helps sustain a balanced work-to-worker ratio for optimized workforce productivity.
