A partner is anyone authoring Workblocks under partner-tier access on the platform. There are two tracks.
Partners · Program
The terms under which the work compounds.
Two tracks. Same portal. Same authorship credit. The protagonist is whoever is closest to the problem.
01Who is a partner
01
The consulting firm
A senior consultant at a partner firm (Accenture, PwC, Deloitte, Bekaert, and the rest of the network) authors Workblocks at their clients and ships them via the platform. The firm holds the client relationship.
02
The customer-operations partner
An operations lead at a customer graduates into self-authorship on their own deployment. The customer holds their own work. References available on request.
Both tracks share the same portal, the same authorship tooling, the same authorship credit on every run. There are no tier names. There is no badge ladder. There is the program, and there is the work.
02Compensation
Consulting-firm partners are compensated on the activity of the Workblocks they author. An agreed price per agreed outcome. The shape is:
01
The partner authors
A Workblock at a client engagement.
02
The client engages
The Workblock in production.
03
The activity is metered
Against the agreed pricing.
04
The partner receives
A defined share of the revenue on every run, perpetually, while the Workblock is in use.
The Workblock travels. If the same partner deploys the Workblock at a second client, the share continues. If a different partner deploys a derivative Workblock, the authorship credit and the share follow the lineage.
Customer-operations partners are compensated by their employer, not by Beyond Work: their Workblocks are internal assets of the customer. Authorship credit is still visible on every run, including for cross-customer reuse via the Library.
03IP
01
Consulting-firm track
The Workblock the partner authors is the partner's intellectual property under terms documented in the agreement.
02
Customer-operations track
The Workblock is the customer's intellectual property. Beyond Work holds the platform on which it runs. The customer's data is the customer's.
04Escalation
When the work is hard (when the schema is contested, when the model behaviour is inconsistent, when the client has a constraint that the partner has not seen before), the platform team is on the engagement. The partner is not alone with the hard part.
05Training
Builder Academy is the training pathway for both tracks. Three weeks typical. Hands-on against real Workblocks at real clients (or, for customer-operations partners, against the customer's own deployment). There is no certification badge; there is the record of what the partner has shipped.
