Why it works

The story earns the New Capability tag because Slevomat had no prior infrastructure to employ people in Italy, Germany, or Croatia, and local agencies could not fill the gap. The EOR model made something genuinely impractical before now routine. There is a mild coin-flip with Efficiency since the two-person team metric highlights lean resourcing, but the framing leads with a net-new cross-border employment ability, not a cost reduction.

Steal this

The trust-building detail: naming the in-country specialist calls that settled suspicious employees during a sensitive ownership transition gives the vendor a human role beyond admin, making the case study memorable and differentiated.
