Powering Construction’s Future: How XYZ Reality are using Omnipresent to Build a Global Workforce

XYZ Reality, a UK-headquartered pioneer in augmented reality for construction, is redefining how on-site teams collaborate and deliver projects worldwide. With operations spanning eight countries and a rapidly growing team, XYZ Reality’s mission is clear: empower construction professionals to visualise and interact with digital building plans directly on-site, streamlining delivery and slashing costly errors.

As the company's international footprint expanded, so did the complexity of managing a mobile, specialised workforce. Working with Omnipresent enables XYZ Reality to hire, onboard, and support field engineers and surveyors with care, speed and compliance.

The Challenge: Scaling Specialised Talent Across Borders

XYZ Reality’s core business model demands agility: “We need to employ people for projects in international countries, often people that work on site and not from home. Our employees move internationally with these projects. And Omni was the only other company we could find that could help support onsite workers,”

Amber Taylor, their People Operations Manager.

Previously relying on multiple EOR providers, escalating costs and fragmented processes prompted XYZ Reality to seek a single, streamlined solution. Omnipresent supported the transition navigating complex insurance and compliance requirements for on-site engineers and surveyors—often in new, unfamiliar jurisdictions.

The Solution: Omnipresent’s End-to-End Global Workforce Platform

Omnipresent’s platform delivered on several critical fronts:

• Rapid, Compliant Hiring: XYZ Reality successfully onboarded employees in as little as one week in the US, a testament to Omnipresent’s speed and operational agility.
• Comprehensive Compliance: “When we work in new locations there’s obviously a lot in terms of new legislation that Omni are helping making sure is being met, whether that’s health and safety requirements out on site or anything else for people that actually don’t work from home,” shares Amber.
• Integrated Payroll and Benefits: Payroll, expenses, and benefits management are now centralised, reducing manual work and ensuring consistency across all locations.
• Responsive Support: “A team that is friendly and responsive is always a win when you’re trying to get answers to questions… Vanessa is always super responsive—even for hypothetical scenarios,” says Amber, “XYZ reality values Omnipresent’s customer service.”

The Results: Agility, Compliance, and Seamless Integration

With Omnipresent, XYZ Reality now operates with a level of agility and compliance that matches its innovative spirit. The company’s ability to deploy talent rapidly across borders—while ensuring all local regulations, insurance, and payroll needs are met. This speed has become a key differentiator in the competitive construction technology sector.

Omnipresent was quickly integrated with their new HRIS system, Hibob, further streamlining operations, positioning XYZ Reality so that users have complete views of employee packages.

Key Takeaways for Businesses Considering EOR Solutions

• Prioritise EOR partners with proven expertise in supporting on-site, international workers—not just remote talent.
• Evaluate the speed of onboarding and responsiveness of the support team as critical success factors.
• Seek integrated solutions that go beyond compliance to include payroll, expenses, and benefits management.
• Choose partners who can scale with your ambitions and adapt to the unique needs of your workforce.

As construction and technology continue to converge, companies like XYZ Reality are showing how the right EOR partnership can unlock new global talent to support fast growth, a flexible workforce and operational excellence
