How to manage the relationship with OPCOs day to day
Updated
Managing the OPCO relationship rests on mastery of three elements: knowing your contact and the branch concerned, submitting compliant coverage files before training begins, and rigorously tracking invoicing and reimbursements. OPCOs finance according to coverage levels set by branch, on the basis of coherent files. An incomplete or late-submitted file blocks payment and weighs on the organization's cash position.
Identifying the right OPCO and contact
Eleven OPCOs cover the professional branches. Each company falls under an OPCO according to its collective agreement. France Compétences provides a tool to identify the competent OPCO. On the organization side, knowing branch contacts and their procedures smooths file processing.
Submitting compliant files
Coverage is requested before the training action begins, on the basis of a training agreement and the required documents. Coverage levels are set by branch and cap financing. A file must be coherent, complete and submitted in advance: instruction deadlines cannot be caught up, and an action that has already started without prior agreement may remain at the cost of the organization or the client.
Tracking invoicing and reimbursements
The circuit from contract to invoice to reimbursement determines cash flow. Invoicing rests on attendance and delivery supporting documents. Coverage refusals, frequent when a document is missing or a non-conformity is present, must be handled without delay. Structured tracking, with organized follow-up, reduces payment delays and losses.
