homeemployers pricing models
iamindependent offers your company two standard pricing models, which are detailed below. Although, iamindependent has implemented different pricing models with certain customers that have unique business needs. If one of the standard pricing models does not closely align with your business needs, please contact us and we will create a special pricing model for your company.
Pricing model: CostPlus™
 
Using the CostPlus™ pricing model, you would negotiate a gross w-2 direct labor rate with the contractor [i.e. what the contractor will gross on a w-2 basis], and add 18.65% to cover iamindependent's employer load [14.65%] and service fee [4%]. Click here to see an example of this pricing model.
Pricing model: DirectCost™
 
Using the DirectCost™ pricing model, you would negotiate a loaded business to business 1099 pay rate [i.e. $50 per hour, {your company}-to-{iamindependent}]. iamindependent will bill your company for the contractor's services at this rate, and will employ the contractor as our w-2 employee. All the mandatory withholdings including Federal, State and Local taxes, elected benefits and our service fee will be deducted out of this rate and paid by iamindependent.
