?? Today, we’re releasing Glassdoor for Primes, a first-of-its kind industry report providing insights into the business practices of 26 of the largest organizations in global development and humanitarian response. ?Why this report? Global development funding is highly concentrated. Typically, the only way for local groups and social innovators to work with funders like USAID is as a subrecipient to one of their largest contracting partners. This report captures survey data regarding how the biggest players in global development and humanitarian response work with local groups and social innovators, based on survey data from the subrecipients themselves. ?? What we learned Business practices vary widely across large prime contractors. Highly rated organizations embrace transparency, fairness, collaboration, and accountability. Subcontracting is costly, averaging $19,622 in proposal costs alone, with no funding guarantee; primes disbursed only 59% of promised amounts, on average, and nearly 80% of respondents reported funding delays, some over a year. Subrecipients also expressed concerns about how large primes used their intellectual property. ?? No matter your role in the ecosystem, the report also includes recommendations for you: Prime Contractors: Steps to improve your business practices to work with local players, social innovators, and other subrecipients. Subrecipients: Use this report to advocate for better partnerships and protect your organization. Policymakers/Funders: Recommendations on ways to promote good practices, discourage poor ones.
