A good way to **manage subcontracted experts on consulting projects** is to keep a profile for each expert with expertise, rates and availability, define a clear scope and deliverables for each assignment, track hours and deliveries and approve payments based on accepted work.

In **Jestor**, experts, assignments, deliverables and payments are connected to the project.

## Why are subcontracted experts hard to coordinate?

Consulting firms bring in specialists for specific parts of a project. Agreements are made by email and messages.

Scopes are vague, deliverables arrive late and invoices do not match the agreed terms.

The firm remains responsible to the client for the expert's work.

## What problems does expert management solve?

- Vague scopes and deliverables
- Late or incomplete work
- Invoices that do not match agreements
- No record of expert performance
- Confidentiality not documented

## How do I manage experts in Jestor?

1. **Create expert profiles** with expertise, rates and documents.
2. **Create assignments** with scope, deliverables, deadline and budget.
3. **Track hours and deliverables** against the assignment.
4. **Review and accept deliverables** before payment.
5. **Send approved payables** to your **ERP** for payment.

| Assignment field | Purpose                         |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------- |
| Scope            | What the expert will do         |
| Deliverables     | What will be delivered and when |
| Budget           | Hours or fixed fee              |
| Acceptance       | Approval before payment         |

## How do I protect confidentiality?

Store signed confidentiality agreements on the expert profile.

Give experts restricted access only to the information needed for their assignment.

## What else helps you manage subcontracted experts on consulting projects?

- Linking expert costs to the project also shows the real margin of engagements that depend on external specialists.
- Clear communication rules help as well. Defining who talks to the client — the firm or the expert — avoids confusion and keeps the firm in control of the relationship.
