My primary goals were to be able to hire amazing talents as we grow more as a company and provide my team with everything they need for optimal work and productivity.

How did you select EMAPTA?

I had looked into several BPO companies that are located in Manila. I considered the safety and convenience of the location, the price of the services they offer, their amenities, and a lot more factors. I had to make sure that the one I chose would be able to provide me with a stress-free transaction and my team the best services possible.

Describe the project in detail.

Emapta's services for LifeDNA include human resource management, payroll, a designated office, employees' benefits, amenities for my team, technical support, provision of necessary tools and equipment, and a lot more.

What was the team composition?

Our team currently consists of 7 members. Emapta helped us find new research scientists and a graphic designer for our team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Emapta has been able to deliver and meet our expectations. Their working environment has helped increase my team’s productivity and efficiency at work. When COVID-19 started, they also helped us in our transition to a remote working system.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Emapta has been attentive to our requests, addressing any concerns my team has. We are in constant communication with their Management and they always check in to see how the team is doing.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Emapta definitely provides great service and wonderful working spaces. If you are looking for an offshore company that you can rely on, Emapta is probably one of the best out there.

Are there any areas for improvement?

It's been great working with Emapta so far . I think the major point for improvement here would be to make sure that the attendance of my team is accurate, constantly updated, and correct, so as to avoid any issues in compensation and benefits.

I would also suggest that they find a better bank partner. My team has recently encountered technical issues with their existing bank provider.

How did you select EMAPTA?

I first read about the owner and founder of Emapta Tim Vorbach in an article many years ago in "the Advertiser" What stood out for me, was businesses were using offshoring to strengthen their business and add resources to improve their business which were simply not affordable in Australia.

From there contact was made, we went through a competitive process and cost benefit regarding offshoring our first staff member. Emapta came out on top, the position made sense for our business and we proceeded and have had an ongoing relationship with emapta ever since.
