Regardless of the expertise and resources of your in-house HR department, there may come a time when a highly-trained outside source of HR expertise may prove invaluable to your business. At TPG HR Services our extensive HR experience in all areas of the field can be put at your fingertips immediately, particularly when you would like an unbiased and independent review or audit of your current HR services. This kind of “fresh look” at existing policies, employee attitudes and morale, or how you allocate company resources can be a critical part of the self-examination that all companies (including our own) need to go through from time to time to keep operating at peak efficiency and effectiveness. This type of outside perspective can be particularly important if your organization is going through some sort of dramatic transition such as a merger or acquisition, a large expansion, or a shift into a new area of business or a new market. Working with TPG HR Services can help you manage these kinds of transitions and determine how best to allocate all of your resources (including your HR team) in new ways to meet the new challenges you will face.

Even if you have an in-house HR department, there may be times when special projects arise that lie outside the expertise of your team – or where your HR staff simply doesn’t have the time to devote to something in addition to their regular duties. This is where TPG HR Services can step in and partner with your existing HR staff to address any area of concern. And, this doesn’t even have to be an unexpected “special project” either. Perhaps, you have determined that your in-house HR team is best used to focus on a specific set of core, business-essential responsibilities. By partnering with TPG HR Services, you can ensure that other important functions are handled without having to devote internal resources to them. This can be a great way to maximize the effectiveness of your internal HR team without diverting their focus from their central strategic goals. Once you determine your company’s core strategic HR responsibilities, you can have your team concentrate on them, while being confident that TPG HR Services will handle other areas expertly and consistently.

Small businesses thrive by finding a way to produce high-quality results in spite of limited resources. In fact, the creative tension produced by this equation is what often gives birth to the innovation and “outside-of-the-box” thinking that is a hallmark of successful small businesses in virtually every field. In order for small businesses to prosper, each employee needs to maximize their potential and be pulling in the same direction – areas where HR can play a key role. Correctly implemented HR policies can also protect small businesses from potentially devastating compliance mistakes that can sink the success of a small business before it has a chance to grow. However, many small businesses can’t devote the resources to hiring HR personnel to staff an in-house HR department. Fortunately, there is a way out of this apparent “catch-22” situation.  By turning to TPG HR Services, your small business can get access to the critical HR services you need without having to add extra staff to your “lean and mean” payroll. And, as you grow in the future, TPG HR Services can help you assemble a highly-qualified, in-house HR team at whatever point you deem that appropriate.
