Human Resources & Payroll Service

You braved another year-end alone. But following the chaos of reporting, reconciliations and deadlines … the question is, should you save yourself the nightmare and resolve to find a payroll partner in the new year?

"Few companies are in business to do payroll. Employers invest a lot of time and energy for something that's not connected to why they are in business," says Jeremiah Hall, Director of Meza Construction, Denver, CO.
Outsourcing allows a company to use its resources more efficiently by concentrating on its core business. It also relieves you of the responsibility of keeping up with a truckload of statutory compliance issues.
But to reap the rewards, you need the right provider. What counts most?

• Stability.
  You don't want the vendor vanishing overnight. You do want someone that has worked successfully with companies like yours - in size, industry, geography, and payroll frequency, for example.
  
• Flexibility.
  This is key. Can the provider meet your unique needs? You're not shopping for 'one size fits all.' Choose a vendor who understands your business.
  
• Growth.
  Can the provider handle related requirements as your business grows or your needs change? When the time comes to add additional services, "Smooth integration will be critical," says Hall.
• Partnership.
  Outsourcing payroll means entrusting an important part of your operations to someone else. You'll feel comfortable though, knowing we are standing behind you. "One of the biggest mistakes companies make is to treat outsourcing as a purchasing exercise. You're really setting up a strategic alliance. Conduct the kind of due diligence you would for such a relationship," Hall advises.

So while you'll significantly reduce your workload, the best relationships do require some effort on your part. To be successful, outsourcing requires careful planning, buy-in from principals, and frequent communication with the vendor. The right choice can prove profitable. In addition to cost savings, the efficient redeployment of management time are rewards that will show up on the bottom line.
