How a PEO Creates a Scalable HR Infrastructure

Managing HR for a growing company isn't easy. Enlisting a PEO can make all the difference.

Having a couple of managers dealing with all HR issues may work fine for a very small company. But that’s not a viable strategy once your employee numbers grow beyond 40 or 50. At that point, you need a dedicated HR person – or better yet, an HR team – to oversee everything from recruiting to onboarding to – really – any of the organization’s employee-related needs.  

The problem is, if your company is expanding, rapid scalability of your HR infrastructure may not be feasible – and that leads to some significant challenges that hinder growth potential. Enlisting a PEO, or professional employer organization can save you from experiencing unnecessary growing pains.  

PEO companies like Axcet HR Solutions provide scalable HR infrastructure that not only supports your small business at the size it is today, but also creates opportunities for even more meaningful growth. In fact, data shows companies that use a PEO like Axcet grow 7 to 9% faster than those that don’t. A PEO supercharges growth in part by taking away the need to hire a full staff of HR pros in-house or lean on managers who might lack HR expertise and training. Instead, Axcet gives you a dedicated, Kansas City-based PEO team that serves as an experienced, reliable human resources department for small-but-growing businesses.  

Scalability is easy with a PEO. Use the services you need now; add others that become important as your company expands.   

Here’s how a PEO supports small business growth:   

  • Knowledgeable HR professionals help you respond to growth opportunities with powerful recruiting. A PEO will develop spot-on job descriptions, give you access to competitive benefits that attract top talent and help your team interview well. With a PEO’s insights, you’ll consistently add high performers to your team.  

A PEO streamlines onboarding so employees are comfortable and poised for productivity from day one.   

  • With a PEO like Axcet, your growing company gets leading-edge HR technologies for payroll administration, job candidate tracking, benefits enrollment, onboarding and more without having to make those investments on your own. 
  • As your company grows, risk increases. Skilled in navigating everything from safety training to insurance and workers’ compensation claims to compliance with OSHA, federal, state and local compliance issues, a PEO helps you manage risk.  

During transitional periods, like when a company is in growth mode, small business owners and managers need more than ever to stay focused on overall organizational changes, marketing, product development and ensuring that day-to-day operations run smoothly. A PEO becomes a trustworthy resource for HR issues for growing companies, like payroll, onboarding and claims management. Outsourcing these responsibilities to a PEO lets company leaders give their full attention to more immediate growth concerns.  

If your small or mid-sized company in the Kansas City, Missouri, or Kansas area is in the process of growing, a PEO like Axcet can help. Axcet establishes long-term relationships with clients, enabling them to scale their HR infrastructure without the expense and hassle of hiring an in-house team. These are the HR experts with decades of proven experience. Need scalable HR for your growing organization?
