Experience has taught us that the most successful and rewarding partnerships occur when people and organizations align themselves with others who share similar visions, cultures, and values, and whose skills and core competencies complement each other rather than mirror them. The hallmark of our success has been developing and nurturing long-term collaborative friendships and partnerships with our clients, and other trusted advisors like Benefits Brokers, Banks, Accounting Firms, Law Firms, Trade Associations, Professional Membership Organizations, among others.  

We look forward to exploring ways HRM can create real value for you and your clients through a powerful, impactful partnership.

Featured Partnerships:

• Accounting Firms

• Benefits Brokers

• Law Firms

ACCOUNTING FIRMS

Accounting Firms partner with HRM to provide their clients an assurance of proactive, reliable and compliant HR consulting and administrative services.

Accounting Firms recognize that one of the most significant areas of potential financial risk for their clients relates to improper HR practices and compliance failures. A single mistake can have costly consequences that potentially imperil the long-term financial viability of an organization. In keeping with our own client advocacy and risk management roles, we believe that every client should have a collaborative relationship with a trusted Accounting Firm. We’re often asked by clients to facilitate introductions to Accounting Firms based upon the assessed needs and culture of the client, and related experience of the Accounting Firm.

Visionary Accounting Firm looking to differentiate themselves by offering a broader risk focus or range of risk management services partner with HRM to provide their clients access to professional HR services tailored specifically to enhance their compliance status and strengthen the advisory relationship. Contact us to learn more about our concierge-level referral experience that’s a “credit” to you and your clients.

BENEFIT BROKERS  

HRM partners with Benefits Brokers to ensure that our client companies receive quality benefit plan options at the best possible value. We know the markets, we know the products, we know the rules, and we know our clients. We recognize the tangible value of Benefits Brokers and believe that every client should have a collaborative relationship with a reliable and consultative Benefits Broker. We’re often asked by clients to lead due diligence efforts and facilitate introductions to Benefits Brokers based upon the unique needs and culture of the client, and experience of the Broker. In our role as benefits administrator for clients, we actively manage relationships with Benefits Brokers and assist in communicating plan elements, coordinating enrollment processes, and ensuring plan compliance, among other activities.

Enterprising Benefits Brokers looking to differentiate themselves by offering a broader range of support services to enhance their consultative brand, partner with HRM to provide their clients access to professional HR services tailored specifically to enhance their advisory relationship, and their clients’ compliance status and operational efficiency. Contact us to learn more about our concierge-level referral experience that will have you and your clients “covered.”

LAW FIRMS

Law Firms partner with HRM because corporate clients are working harder than ever to reduce outside legal spend, and more frequently asking for referrals to qualified outside consultants who can deliver competent and compliant HR strategies and support services in more cost-effective ways.

From a more practical standpoint, there are certain HR support services that Law Firms strategically refer to HRM to avoid conflicts of interest that are inherent with some issues, such as harassment and discrimination investigations, internal employee relations and compliance matters, etc.  For example, if litigation is anticipated and the client plans to rely heavily on the Faragher-Ellerth defense, HRM can help avoid the conflict of interest inherent when an employer uses its in-house or usual outside counsel for investigatory work, who would likely be called as a fact witness at trial.

Conscientious Law Firms looking for trusted and reliable HR consultants for strategic engagements partner with HRM for competent and cost-effective professional HR services that bolster their clients and protect the privilege when needed.
