28 problems hr consultancies bring us, each with the cause, what it costs and what we build to fix it.
HR consultancy retainer hours leak through calls and quick emails nobody logs. We build capture that records advice time per client without extra typing.
When an HR advice line has no written record, disputes about what was said are hard to settle. We build call notes, summaries and a searchable client history.
HR consultancy staff handbooks drift as each client's copy is edited separately. We build a master handbook with client variations and tracked rollouts.
HR consultancy contracts for client hires get retyped from old copies, and details slip. We build a guided request form that fills your approved templates.
An HR consultancy's disciplinary and grievance case files sit in inboxes and shared drives. We build one case record with a timeline, documents and next steps.
HR investigation interview notes take consultants days to type and assemble into reports. We build transcription, draft notes and a structured evidence file.
HR consultancies draft case letters by hand at every stage, and names and dates slip. We build letter generation from your templates and the live case record.
When rules change, an HR consultancy must work out which clients are affected and track every update. We build a client profile register and a rollout tracker.
A new client HR audit stalls while you chase contracts, policies and staff lists. We build a guided document request, gap tracking and draft findings.

HR consultancies using freelance associates juggle availability, briefings, access and invoices by email. We build one hub for work, files and payment.

HR consultancies spend days finding, ordering and paginating documents for a client's tribunal bundle. We build a collection, index and pagination tool.
When a client's employee makes a subject access request, HR consultancies search mailboxes by hand. We build collection, deduplication and redaction review.

HR changes agreed with clients reach payroll by email and get missed or keyed wrongly. We build one change form, approvals and a clean feed to the payroll team.
