Analyzing Proposals – Which PEO is Best for My Company?

Did you know that the team at Employer Solutions Plus is available to help you analyze PEO proposals? That’s right; we don’t just put together PEO proposals, we also assist clients that are already halfway through the process!

One of the most difficult tasks can be sorting through countless proposals. You’ve likely already compiled an assessment of workplace needs and wants surrounding employee management and risk management, as well as determined your employee benefits needs.

The first step in analyzing a proposal is making sure that the PEO’s capabilities, services, and benefits align with your requested needs. If they do, add them to your pile of possible PEO candidates. May sound simple enough, but if you’re already halfway through the process you know how large of a time investment sending out RFPs and identifying your workplace needs has already been.

And, selecting the best PEO for your company isn’t often as easy as laying out all the proposals for side by side comparisons. Each PEO will likely come back with customized solutions for your specific needs. Each has its own pricing model, way of conveying data, proposal template and even fine print that you may not 100% understand.

When you do find a PEO whose pricing and services stand out amongst the rest, it is recommended that you verify financials including bank and credit references and ask the PEO to show proof of payment history surrounding payroll taxes and insurance premiums. Then of course comes the fine print – Will you be able to cancel the contract if better rates come along or terms of the contract are not met? Who is responsible for each type of liability, you or the PEO?

Our dedicated staff of PEO experts can prepare a custom analysis of proposals for you upon request and we’ll review all of the above, and then some! If we don’t see the perfect fit, Employer Solutions Plus can also offer some alternatives.
