Lifted Solutions provides a platform for enterprises to manage their global contingent workforce across sourcing, contracting, management, and payment for all types of contingent workers, including IC, AOR, EOR, staff augmentation, and SOW. It uses a contract- and country-agnostic infrastructure that integrates with MSPs and VMS, offers access to Upwork’s talent marketplace, and uses a payment system tailored for contingent work, supported by automation and expert guidance for classification and compliance with Ascen-based W-2 capabilities. It differentiates itself by building on Bubty and Ascen foundations to deliver an integrated, scalable lifecycle solution that fits enterprise workflows rather than a standalone recruiting tool. Its goal is to simplify and standardize the entire contingent workforce lifecycle worldwide, helping large organizations source, contract, manage, and pay external talent efficiently and compliantly.
