Issue
A real estate company with approximately 1,000 employees faced significant challenges with their previous payroll and human resources systems. Their provider had them operating on two separate platforms that didn’t integrate, leading to inefficiencies, poor reporting, and a frustrating user experience. Data had to be entered multiple times across systems, and reporting was cumbersome and unreliable.
The lack of support from their provider compounded the issue, leaving the company feeling undervalued and misled. Frustrated and considering a move to a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) model, they turned to CBIZ for guidance.
Solution
CBIZ took a consultative approach, listening closely to the company’s pain points and future goals. With a collaborative team, CBIZ implemented a tailored, multi-service solution that addressed their immediate needs and set them up for long-term success.
Key strategies included:
- Transitioning the company to a single payroll, HCM platform, eliminating inefficiencies and improving reporting capabilities.
- Providing a dedicated CBIZ team to ensure seamless implementation and ongoing service.
- Delivering significant cost savings by moving away from a dual-system model.
- Designing a unique report to reconcile monthly payroll costs across over 100 cost centers.
- Introducing CBIZ’s HR services to provide much-needed support for their small HR team of three.
Outcome
CBIZ’s multi-service approach delivered measurable results for the company. By consolidating systems and streamlining processes, the company achieved a higher return on investment and significant cost savings. Custom reporting tools improved productivity, freeing up time for the HR team to focus on strategic initiatives.
Additionally, the company now benefits from a higher level of personalized support, ensuring their needs are consistently met. With the introduction of CBIZ’s HR Services, their small HR team gained the resources and knowledge needed to manage their growing workforce effectively.
