Background: Scaling Operations During a High-Growth Phase

A U.S.-based manufacturing solutions company partnered with South during a rapid growth phase driven by new client contracts and internal automation initiatives. They needed to scale their operations team quickly while maintaining accuracy and performance.

The Challenge: Scaling Fast Without Compromising Quality

The client needed to hire three Data Entry Clerks capable of supporting ERP implementations and client go-live operations— without the cost, delays, or complexity of U.S.-based hiring.
