Same hours. Same agreement. Infinite flexibility.

See EDS in Action: Healthcare Giant Masters Complexity and Achieves 90-Day Agility

The power of this flexible, transparent and time-based model is proven. A global Healthcare leader was facing a critical compliance crisis: a new FDA mandate requiring highly technical VR simulation training for 4,000 new associates. Their internal team lacked the specialized VR development and Localization capacity, predicting a massive, budget-breaking 8-month delay. Localization was essential to ensure the content met regulatory mandates and was effective for their multilingual global workforce.

The Capability Win: By leveraging their EDS hours, they instantly deployed a dedicated team including a Solution Architect, a VR Developer, and three Localization experts. This massive capability injection got the regulatory project back on track immediately.

The Flexibility Pivot: Four weeks later, their L&D priority abruptly shifted to launch an urgent Product Knowledge curriculum for a new device launch. They seamlessly reallocated 50% of the EDS hours—switching the VR Developer and Localization experts out for a Front-end Developer and a Senior Instructional Designer—all within the same day, under the same agreement.

The Result: They met the compliance deadline, achieved a 40% reduction in time-to-competency on the new device, and executed two massive, unrelated projects in parallel. EDS delivered the speed, specialized skill, and flexibility needed to turn multiple crises into guaranteed wins.

It is a proven, high-ROI solution that eliminates the risks of traditional sourcing.
