Amentum is a leading contractor to the U.S. federal government, and governments of select allied countries. They support multiple critical programs of national significance across defense, security intelligence, energy, and environment.
Intel selected Amentum to provide both hard and soft facility management services in Latin America (Costa Rica, Brazil, and Colombia). After awarding the contract, Intel requested that Amentum hire and onboard numerous local nationals (mostly situated in Costa Rica) within 90 days.
Lacking the infrastructure in these countries required to meet Intel’s aggressive timelines, Amentum looked to Global Expansion’s comprehensive Employer of Record services for a solution.
Global Expansion was able to successfully hire and onboard approximately 100 local nationals in less than 7 weeks, enabling Amentum to provide an uninterrupted service for Intel.

Before leveraging Global Expansion’s PEO and EOR solutions, Amentum was forced to decline multiple attractive opportunities.Although more than capable, Amentum lacked the necessary legal and corporate infrastructure to meet the strict requirements in certain foreign locations.
Amentum has been an Equus Software client for several years, relying on global mobility solution AssignmentPro to manage their international workforce.
Through that relationship, they were introduced to Global Expansion (a wholly owned subsidiary of Equus Software).
" Since the start of our business relationship Global Expansion (GX), they have
been instrumental in the successful expansion of our global services. This
partnership starts at the proposal stage, where GX leverages their vast internal
resources to ensure we accurately recognize and plan for all necessary
compliance and statutory requirements in the host country.
In addition, GX is always extremely flexible in adapting to, and finding solutions
for, the many different challenges that the nature of our work presents. This has
allowed us to become a more agile company as we expand internationally, while
saving us significant time and money. "Global Mobility
Following the partnership with Global Expansion, Amentum was able to put in a winning bid and secure a highly lucrative and prestigious contract.
Being able to accept a challenging project situated in multiple foreign locations was a first for Amentum. Since recognizing that this type of venture is possible both quickly and at scale, they have been continuously pursuing similar opportunities, resulting in excellent growth.
Global Expansion has since been a key enabler of successfully entering tenders for foreign locations, providing confidence through a partnership that is 100% reliable no matter the challenge.
As a result, Amentum has internally incorporated Global Expansion into its end-to-end global pursuit strategy.
