Selected engagements

Nonprofit / government contracting

A nonprofit government contractor whose payroll provider could not meet its federal reporting requirements. The replacement met them, and the reorganisation that followed produced $750,000 in savings.

Manufacturing

A century-old manufacturer rebuilding itself around a smaller business, facing a 26.55% health renewal with no HRIS. The result: almost $400,000 in annual savings and eight vendors reduced to one.

Manufacturing

A custom boat manufacturer whose sea trials made open-market workers’ compensation prohibitive. A 60-day RFP produced a $100,000 reduction on comp and $200,000 more on benefits.

Distribution

An eighty-year-old distributor had been with the same PEO since before anyone remembered choosing it. Its own CFO had tried and failed to find an alternative. A competitive process returned $200,000.

Real estate

A real estate management firm had moved to a PEO three years earlier and wanted to stay in the model. Remarketing it returned $123,000, a 21% cut in medical and 53% off state unemployment.

Healthcare services

A medical billing firm won two contracts that required going from forty employees to over a hundred — and could not secure a medical plan. Cost of medical fell 29%, with $69,000 in further savings.

Hospitality & property services

A golf course management firm had grown to thirty-plus properties, each with its own HR policies and payroll cycle. Consolidation produced over $100,000 and a single payroll for the whole group.

Manufacturing

A cleaning products manufacturer had verbally committed to a national PEO after two months of negotiation. With a fortnight before the renewal date, an alternative came back nearly $86,000 better.

Consumer brands

A private-equity-backed spirits venture planned to go from twenty-two employees to over a hundred, in multiple states, within a year — deliberately without building an administrative function.
