What is Mindfacturing®?
Mindfacturing® aims to build a more integrated region by increasing access to a local labor force of cost-beneficial talent in Mexico via a binational employment solution.
Mindfacturing® by PRODENSA is a business model that allows clients to hire talent in Mexico via a binational Employer of Record (EOR) solution.
Mindfacturing® Objective
One of PRODENSA's turnkey operations models, Mindfacturing® provides a streamlined solution to hire employees in Mexico for corporate functions without incorporating an entity or being a direct employer. The solution serves for hiring single experts, or to build teams in Mexico.
How Does it Work?
Through PRODENSA's Mindfacturing® model, companies can engage with a Mexican Employer of Record (EOR) service to legally employ staff in Mexico without establishing a local entity. This setup allows companies to have employees in Mexico who perform tasks beneficial to operations primarily conducted outside of Mexico. The employees are hired under full legal compliance, creating a scalable structure for office functions.
How to Use Mindfacturing®
Imagine a U.S.-based tech startup that needs a team of software developers but wants to avoid the complexity and cost of setting up a branch office in Mexico. By using Mindfacturing®, the startup can hire a team in Mexico, where PRODENSA manages all HR and administrative functions just like an extended HR department, without the startup needing a physical or legal presence in Mexico.
With all of PRODENSA's turnkey operational models, there are benefits and limitations.
