TAOS is the self-implementation path. Consulting is for organizations that need experienced practitioners to run the function, build the infrastructure, deliver an independent audit, or combine those services when necessary. Both paths use the same RCoE framework. The question is how much practitioner capacity your situation requires.
Every engagement runs on the RCoE methodology. The scope and depth of practitioner involvement is what differs.
End-to-end implementation of your Recruiting Center of Excellence. Diagnostic, architecture design, infrastructure build, team enablement, and first-proof-point delivery. You get a functioning TA system - not a plan for one. The practitioner is in the function, building and delivering simultaneously.
Best for: Mid-cap and enterprise organizations with an urgent hiring mandate and no repeatable TA infrastructure. PE portfolio companies. Organizations coming off failed consulting engagements that need delivery, not strategy.
Fractional or full interim VP/Director of TA. Senior practitioner sourcing, managing the function, and building infrastructure simultaneously. When the permanent leader arrives, the system is running.
Best for: Organizations in TA leadership transition, rapid scaling environments, or situations where the function needs to perform while the permanent hire is being sourced. High-growth and PE-backed companies especially.
Full RCoE diagnostic assessment, seven pillars plus an independent Employer Brand read, and a prioritized implementation roadmap delivered in 2-4 weeks. An independent read on where you stand and what to build first.
Best for: Organizations not yet ready to commit to a full build but needing an independent, credible assessment for leadership alignment or board-level reporting. Often the first step before a full RCoE Build engagement.
A standalone audit product. Independent assessment of your existing TA function against the RCoE standard, scored across 81 KPIs and 8 pillars, with a hard evidence-tier methodology so no score exceeds what its weakest supporting evidence can defend. Delivered as a structured report with cost-leakage modeling and a sequenced 90-day action sheet.
Best for: Organizations that have built some infrastructure but want an independent assessment before a PE transaction, leadership change, or major technology investment. Also valuable post-merger as a baseline for integration planning.
