Project Details

Companies are turning to on-site talent to sustain capabilities and keep their staff numbers leaner and their bottom line more profitable. In today’s climate many companies are having a hard time finding qualified, dedicated professionals. TAI’s On-Site technical, engineering and management services provides corporations with an expendable resource to accomplish short- and long-term goals without overhead costs such as employee insurance, travel expenses and liability issues. On-site services create greater flexibility for project-based support as they can release or retain talent as needed – including the need to backfill temporarily vacated internal positions or address marketplace shortages for skilled professionals.
