Achilles Fractional HR

Over the years, we realized that many of the business leaders we have worked with want the very best HR management structure for their organizations.

Most organizations have a need for multiple levels of HR skill sets that are not commonly found in one person. Finding that ideal mix of expertise or making the investment in multiple HR people can be overwhelming for most companies. So, we developed a Fractional HR concept provides our clients with the ideal mix of expertise without making the investment in multiple HR people.

Our unique methodology is a collaborative approach between your organization and ours that starts with identifying your specific needs. We then determine the percentage of focus on each particular level and type of HR expertise necessary to satisfy your needs. With Achilles Group and Fractional HR, you get a designated HR professional who will manage the relationship, work directly with your leaders and partner with other Achilles colleagues to create custom solutions for your organization.



Proactive Response

Achilles drives to initiate solutions across all areas of service. And, when the unplanned occurs and your leaders are caught off guard by discrimination claims, medical leaves, high-risk terminations, misconduct and performance or respect issues, we engage our team’s extensive experience to provide what we call a Proactive Response.

This means that when we intervene to put out a fire, we also dig in to address the root cause. The value Achilles Group brings is to first effectively resolve these situations and then put practices in place to address the core gaps and avoid disruption in the future.

Our experienced team is well equipped to address both the incident and the cause with our Proactive Response and Professionally Human approach.



The Levels Of Expertise

HR Coordinator – a focused, educated HR contributor with foundational knowledge in most HR disciplines. Able to research and construct HR related policy and compliance procedures and participate in a variety of audits.

HR Generalist – an experienced HR professional comfortable engaging in most aspects of performance management both as an advisor to front line leadership, and hands-on contributor with employee interventions and employment actions across all phases of the employee life cycle.

Senior HR Generalist – this is a seasoned HR professional with several areas of expertise. Works well with and earns credibility with all levels of leadership. Able to drive proactive HR planning, leadership development and project execution.

HR Director – a broad spectrum HR leader who is able to engage as a catalyst for accountability, growth and profit focus. Facilitates at the executive level to support visioning, planning and execution on long range cultural and leadership development initiatives.

Our Approach

We provide broad and deep HR expertise customized to your needs.

We engage as a team. A designated HR professional will manage the relationship, work directly with your leaders and connect with colleagues on the team in a very proactive and cost-effective way.

Achilles Group will build a cohesive best practices framework of People Performance, Recruiting Effectiveness, HR Risk Mitigation and Strategy Alignment to grow and protect your company at all levels, whether you are just starting a business or restructuring a multi-generation company.

Qualified Specialists Intl

We began working with Achilles Group in Q4 of 2019. We were going through a reorganization and needed expert assistance navigating through it. Out of the two or three companies interviewed, Achilles Group came off as the most professional.

Going into 2020, Achilles Group has been an invaluable resource in helping us through all of the laws and regulations that have occurred as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, such as the Paycheck Protection Program, Families First Coronavirus Response Act and other government funding programs. Because of their assistance, we were able to maintain our staffing levels, and also hire an additional two employees. We are currently revising our employee handbook, and have started working with a bookkeeper who was referred to us by their team.

Working with Achilles Group has allowed our president, Bud Weightman, to step out of the equation and focus his time on other initiatives, and there is a definite dollar value to that. If your company is ready to take the next step towards growth, Achilles Group is the catalyst that will help you get there.

Engineered Air Balance

Achilles Group began working with us during a difficult time, but the transition went a lot smoother than expected. They adapted quickly to get us up to speed and headed in the right direction. They learned our business needs and helped us strategize according to those needs. We have been impressed by the number of people they have working on our projects, and we are very pleased with what this group has been able to accomplish in a short amount of time.

Achilles Group has ironed out about 50 job descriptions, organized our handbook, and provided assistance with employee issues. In addition to that, they are proactively anticipating what we will need in the coming year. In 2020, they will help us focus on training as well as streamlining our evaluation and review processes.

Each of our office managers act as a human resources coordinator, and Achilles Group works very well with them. Their professionalism and the quality of their work can’t be beat. If you’re looking for a change in your human resources structure, this group can come in, attack all problems, and help you get organized. We are very happy with the way they address issues and come up with solutions.

SeAH Steel

SeAH Steel has worked with Achilles Group since October 2016, and we are very fortunate to have them as partners. When we purchased two other companies, Achilles guided us through the unfamiliarity of that process by providing recommendations for our new organizational structure. Since then, they have developed detailed job descriptions for all employee positions and conducted market research to determine compensation ranges. Additionally, they have assisted us with employee investigations, management and leadership training, and I-9 and other compliance audits. By utilizing resources we do not have access to, especially as a startup, Achilles has taken a heavy load off of our human resources team.

Achilles is currently helping us concentrate on further developing our leadership training program to better invest in our people. In hopes of getting our leaders as much formal training as possible, we are coming up with different continuing education topics each month for all managers and supervisors. Achilles is also helping us put together employee evaluations for next year, and we are excited about the way those will help us grow as a company.

Working with Achilles Group has been well worth the investment. We are grateful to have them in our back pocket to help with day-to-day HR tasks, as well as unique situations we never expected to face. We look forward to continuing our partnership with them.

Avanti

About a year ago, our payroll consultant suggested we partner with Achilles Group to get some assistance with human resources. Hiring Achilles was a seamless transition for our company because they quickly became an integrated part of our team. No one would know they are a third-party HR group because they have truly learned our business and operate as though they are on our team.

Achilles has helped us in countless ways, from coaching us in counseling and terminating, to helping us navigate through uncharted territory when it comes to difficult employee situations.

They have done a great job with all of this and they are always available for anything and everything we need assistance with. Whether it’s identifying new venues for employee recruitment, retention, training, or anything else involving our people, Achilles is quick to respond and eager to help. They have gone above and beyond to help us with things they really didn’t have to help us with just because they saw us struggling.

Achilles has a culture of wanting feedback, hearing feedback, and making adjustments based on feedback. We have worked with a much larger HR consulting group in the past, but Achilles is hands down the best. I don’t know why anyone would hesitate to work with them!

Suntech

Suntech Building Systems, Inc. is a full-service commercial contractor specializing in retail and commercial construction. Achilles Group was recommended to us by one of our consultants about a year ago, and we are so thankful for the value they have added to our human resources department and our company as a whole.

We were in the dark ages when it came to HR; we did not have a clear understanding of the laws and did not have the right processes in place, but Achilles Group quickly helped us clean everything up. They assisted us with revising our employee handbook and new hire paperwork, and they have guided us through handling HR challenges. We work with Jennifer Ray and Christina, and they are always supportive and quick to respond. Our team is a lot more confident knowing they have our back, and we can always call them to help us work through issues.

Investing in Achilles Group has brought Suntech so far from where we were, and has truly been a great investment for our business. You can’t be an expert at everything. Let Achilles Group keep your HR department running smoothly while you focus on running your company.

Environmental Allies

Achilles Group has been working with Environmental Allies for many years, and in that time, they have added immeasurable value to our company. This year, we put together a leadership training program that Achilles Group provided our team. It addresses everything from recruiting, all the way through termination, as well as workplace dynamics and other various topics. The training program was the main project we collaborated with Achilles on this year, but they also updated all of our job descriptions for all of our positions and helped us with countless day-to-day tasks.

For instance, If we want to hire an office manager in North Carolina, they conduct salary research for the area and things of that nature. They have the ability to get information that would take us hours upon hours to find, so they have helped us become much more efficient. It’s like having a second HR employee that we can benefit from, but don’t have to pay benefits for! Achilles is our right-hand person. They are always available and respond to our needs in a timely manner.

If you are on the fence about hiring Achilles, we highly recommend you do it. They bring expertise you would have to hire ten people to obtain. They are very professional and we really enjoy our partnership.

Dayrise Residential

Dayrise Residential is a multi-family housing and operations company in Houston. About a year ago, we decided we needed a complete overhaul on our HR, payroll and benefits. We were nervous about transitioning out of the PEO model, and one of our vendors recommended Achilles Group as a human resources partner. We set up a half-day meeting with Achilles Group to learn how they could help us, and they came back with a proposal later that afternoon! Gary, our CFO, said it was exactly what we needed, and we had an active contract with Achilles only 30 days later.

Achilles Group hit the ground running. They started with drafting formal offer letters for all of our employees, which was around 475 people. They assisted us with i-9 compliance, overhauled our employee handbook, and restructured, updated, and formalized our policies. They also helped us grow our team and hire new employees. Essentially, they assessed everything we had in place and provided precisely what we were missing.

What has been most impressive about Achilles Group is their response time and how quickly they jump on projects to get them started and completed with no lag time at all. Whether we need guidance on policies or sensitive employee issues, the Achilles team is always available to us and is consistently proactive in helping us get ahead. Achilles Group is very collaborative as a team. They have become an extension of our team and a shoulder to lean on in times of need. Their outside perspective points out our blind spots and helps us fill in the gaps. They ask questions that challenge us, such as: Why do you do things that way? Is it working? Have you ever considered changing that? Try this and see if it works better.

Coming out of the PEO model, we have made such strides as a company, and we couldn’t have done it without Achilles Group. We are very happy with the processes and updated policies they have put in place for us, and they continue to play an important role as we grow our brand, mission, vision, and values. To anyone on the fence about working with Achilles Group, we highly recommend you reach out to them as quickly as possible. The value they bring is incomparable to anything we have ever seen, and we simply cannot say enough positive things about them as a company.

Systel

We were lucky to find Achilles Group through a Google search. They are personable and attentive to details. We were using another much smaller HR firm, but it wasn’t a good fit. Achilles is a mature firm, and they always have the client in their minds and hearts.

Our first big project with Achilles was the employee handbook. They did an assessment, identified gaps, and helped us fine-tune our processes and procedures. Even while handling a longer-term task such as the handbook, they took care of any miscellaneous day-to-day HR tasks that came up. We feel very comfortable to reach out to them if there are any HR issues. They respond quickly to help resolve them.

Currently, we are working with Achilles on other long term projects. They are proactive, responsive, and very easy to work with. They do what they say they are going to do. They genuinely want to help our business succeed, so our relationship feels more like a partnership than a contract. They are very fairly priced for their level of expertise, and they constantly ask for feedback to improve their services.

Achilles has become an extension of our team, and we strongly recommend them. It is such a relief to hand off the HR issues to Achilles and know that it will be taken care of in a professional way.

Gainsborough Waste / Texas Outhouse

Gainsborough Waste and Texas Outhouse are two Houston-based companies specializing in the waste services industry. Both companies originally began working with Achilles Group three years ago, after a referral from a business partner. Our leadership was sold on the Houston human resources firm’s Fractional HR concept, which provided a cost-effective way for us to enlist assistance with our HR needs.

A year into the relationship, we decided to switch over to a payroll services company, thinking it would be a better fit for our business.

The results were a disaster. Many mistakes were made by the payroll services company and the level of service was inferior to what we had come to expect from Achilles Group. We ultimately ended up going back to Achilles Group, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Under the direction of Veronica and Rozlyn, Achilles Group was able to develop new handbooks for both of our companies. They also assisted with filling out forms, performed I9 audits, provided guidance with COBRA and conducted management training. The Achilles Group team has been instrumental in helping our businesses grow, and we highly recommend them to any organization in need of a human resources partner.

Smartbridge

Smartbridge is a Houston-based organization dedicated to simplifying business transformation, and applying thought leadership and innovation to bring their customers’ digital agendas to reality.  We began working with Achilles Group two or three years ago, and since working with them, our business has grown in tremendous ways.

We are a very process-oriented company, and Achilles Group has helped us streamline our processes to make them more effective than they were previously. We have introduced several new programs, including a mentorship program and weekly training sessions called Bridge Sessions that provide our employees with continuing education. In addition, Stan has worked with us on leadership training and other strategic initiatives.

Since partnering with Achilles Group, our employees feel more confident that if there’s something they feel uncomfortable with, they can reach out to Monica, our advisor, and discuss it with her. Management also feels more confident knowing there is someone they can reach out to who is knowledgeable of the risk factors and legalities related to human resources.

If you are a business or organization that is considering a partnership with Achilles Group, please know that doing so is probably the best investment you can make. It has been a great investment for us, as the return we have experienced is invaluable.

Lone Star Cowboy Church

Lone Star Cowboy Church

Achilles Group and Lone Star Cowboy Church have grown up together in many ways. Stan Spaulding, owner and managing member of Achilles, has been a friend of the pastors at our church for many years. As the cowboy church was getting its start, Achilles was getting started as well, and Stan would generously offer his assistance with little things like handbooks and issues with hiring. However, as both groups continued to grow, we became more fully engaged, and Stan began to help us structure our leadership in a clear and organized manner.

Stan really took the lead on reworking our functional organizational charts and organizational charts. He was able to take everything we do as a church and create specific lanes for each team member to focus on, which has really made an impact. As we were developing that, we discovered other things that we hadn’t dealt with properly, especially on the executive team. With his help, we were able to establish our roles much more clearly, which trickled down to the rest of the staff.  Although this has been a time-consuming endeavor, the clarification of goals and expectations has brought a lot of understanding and unification to our team.  Confusion has been replaced with a sense of community.

We would describe Achilles Group as thorough, quick to respond, and eager to serve their clients.  They are the most collaborative group we have ever worked with, and they are always willing to share feedback both ways. They don’t bring their agenda to you, they let you bring your agenda to them and then figure out how they can assist you, which is a really unique approach to business.  We cannot adequately explain the purely positive impact Achilles has had on the growth of Lone Star Cowboy Church, and we highly recommend partnering with this group as a wise investment in your business. Relatively speaking, even if you hired an HR Director, we don’t think there is any way you could duplicate what you’d get from the Achilles Group and the impact they are going to have. They help us do what’s important and ignore that which is not.

At Global we, among other duties, provide direct billing support for physicians’ groups. We experienced an internal HR split between our office and payroll departments. We needed Achilles Group to help provide us with high-level HR strategies. We first received HR support from them when they developed a new employee role structure for us. Achilles Group has also delivered training that has helped develop our leadership group in challenging employee relationship issues. They have also investigated complaints that could have put our company at risk. We look forward to undergoing another Strategic Engagement Assessment with Achilles Group and launch into proactively planning our updated HR strategy.

We are happy that we chose Achilles Group’s Talent Acquisition team to help fill key positions for us. Our legal compliance and employee relations are stronger because of the relationship we have with them. Along with helping create our Employee Handbook and completing an I-9 Audit for us, the Achilles Group HR experts continue to help us with issues as important as a separation/release agreement. They keep us grounded.

Axxiom

Axxiom Manufacturing

When I began my new role in the HR department, there were lots of rules and regulations—things like FMLA, for example—that I was not quite familiar with. We’re also a small company and wanted to make sure we were protecting ourselves and following all the legal guidelines, so we started working on our employee handbook with Achilles Group.

They were very helpful in getting everything in place. They provided us with the right guidelines, checked our employee files to make sure everything was correct, and even helped us fully develop our job descriptions! They went above and beyond what was needed, and were always easy to contact if I had questions. Even if they were traveling or out of the office, they always found someone who could help me!

I would highly recommend Achilles Group, particularly for smaller companies like Axxiom that need HR help. I really was going into this whole situation blindly, but they guided me through the process to make sure we were doing everything by the book and didn’t get audited. As far as I’m concerned, they were a God-send!

At Achilles Group, we call this HR Infrastructure!

People Performance:

We were so busy growing our business that we didn’t take time to stop and figure out what we needed in regards to investing in and inspiring our people. We came to a point where we knew we needed to put some structure in place and the one thing that we didn’t have were job descriptions. We met with Achilles Group and they were able to get a good feel for each position, both currently and for the future. In fact, they helped us think about what should be included to provide realistic job expectations, and then composed the job descriptions for us. As a result, we have seen a positive impact on our people because the details of their roles are clear and they now know the contributions expected of them.

At Achilles Group, we call this People Performance!

HR Infrastructure:

We had an employee handbook that hadn’t been updated in several years.Due to our growth and busy schedules, we hadn’t had the time to focus on it. Achilles Group was able to collaborate with us to really understand the changes that had taken place in our business since the employee handbook had originally been created. Consequently, we now have an up to date document that clearly outlines our operating policies, procedures and behavioral expectations, complete with the most current laws and regulations.

At Achilles Group, we call this HR Infrastructure!

Strategy Alignment:

Achilles Group really facilitated our understanding of the need to align all of our people with key company initiatives.  Due to our fast growth, everyone was working in the business and no one was focused on the business. Thankfully, Achilles led us through an organizational redesign, complete with a new organizational chart designed to meet and hopefully exceed our corporate goals.  As part of this process, we were able to identify three key people that should be focused on the business and other employees needed to take over their duties. Now these three key people can focus on the business and help us grow in new, exciting, and strategic ways.

At Achilles Group, we call this Strategy Alignment!

Overall:

We recommend Achilles Group to any business that is seeing quick growth. We quickly grew to 50 employees and knew there would be new rules and guidelines to follow. We didn’t know what,but we wanted to make sure we did things right. We interviewed two different firms and Achilles Group was far superior in every way!

Houston

Houston Zoo

We reached out to the Achilles Group to assist us when we found ourselves down one person on the HR team with the absence of a Vice President of Human Resources. Because we were in the middle of working on several major projects and did not have enough time or manpower to take care of it all, we contacted Achilles Group for assistance.

It was an awesome experience. We told them what we needed and they jumped right in and hit the ground running. And since we had not performed an extensive I-9 audit or updated our handbook in some time they brought in their team of subject matters experts to assist us with getting it done. I would be remised if I didn’t mention the training sessions they facilitated for our executive and management team.

While a lot of consultants claim they can help you at a moment’s notice, Achilles Group was literally just a phone call away! The Achilles team had a very visible presence and were always available in case we needed help with leadership coaching.

As you can imagine, running a zoo comes with its own unique set of challenges, but Achilles Group’s amazing team of experienced HR professionals was very good at helping us navigate those situations and align all of our strategies effectively. It was one of the best working relationship you could ask for.They really are a top-notch service provider that cares about the success of businesses.

Strategy Alignment:

“We were looking to grow our company and needed an approach that was in alignment with our core values, the responsibility to our customers, and the commitment to our employees.    Achilles Group was already a partner at the time so we enlisted their guidance for this strategic initiative.  We were excited to learn that they were experienced in designing and implementing job descriptions and sales commission plans with a number of companies.  Their understanding of how to culturally align people within our markets was a key in soliciting their assistance.

Achilles Group used their expertise and third party point of view to give us the outside perspective that we needed.  They were able to see the big picture.  They not only helped us design the plan, but they also helped us create a blueprint that facilitated the rollout.   We are confident that the planning and preparation that Achilles Group provided will help us see positive results in the future.”

At Achilles Group, we call this Strategy Alignment!

Overall/Fractional HR:

“It is very difficult for a small business to afford the level of expertise and talent that we get with Achilles Group.  Most situations we encounter warrant the need for multiple levels of HR proficiency that is not commonly found in one person.  The Achilles Group Fractional HR model gives us access to an “entire staff” of HR Professionals with the ideal mix of competencies that we need.

Each time with meet with Achilles Group, I’m impressed that they recall all the detail of our last meeting.  The Achilles Group is the perfect HR solution for our business!”

We needed a stable, consistent HR department and having our own HR department didn’t work for us. We loved Achilles Group’s business model and it turned out to be quite cost-effective for us.

Our company has grown since Achilles Group came onboard and the Talent Acquisition team found us a very strong HR manager. When I have an HR question – it’s usually a big one. The HR experts give us the quality and expertise we need, WHEN we need it. Availability is never an issue. I have great confidence with all of the resources offered from Achilles Group and would recommend them to any company our size.

“When our HR Director left our company, they recommended that we outsource our HR needs since it was so hard to find one person to keep up with everything, and that’s when we contacted Achilles Group.While other HR firms wanted to come in and take over everything, Achilles Group had exactly the right approach, and we knew that they were exactly what we needed.”

Hourly Recruiting:

“Achilles Group helped us with recruiting for a critical position on our finance team. Their team posted the position, sifted through all the applicants, and then screened them via phone interviews.  The candidates they brought to us were all top notch–any one of them would have been a great fit! The person we hired ended up being one of the best decisions we ever made! We will definitely continue to use them in our future recruiting efforts.”

At Achilles Group, we call this Hourly Recruiting!

Overall:

“If you don’t need a full HR department, Achilles Group can provide the whole scope of services in a much more affordable way. We love that our relationship with Achilles is more personal than transactional, and our HR Professional is so readily-available she’s practically a member of our staff! They have more than delivered on their promises!”

Over the years, Achilles Group has helped us hire good people, trained us in subjects from DISC behavior assessment, to creating a respectful workplace, consulted us on various Human Resources issues and helped us with terminations.

Because of our relationship with the HR experts at Achilles Group, we have an improved and engaged team. There is also an enhanced knowledge of the importance of Human Resources rules, dealing with employee issues, and handling of the myriad personnel situations by team members and supervisors alike.

Achilles Group came to PTG at a time when we felt HR was our “Achilles heel.” It tends to be something that companies tend to forget about while they chase things around in the whirlwind of business. Achilles Group was able to come in, get a current state of our organization, and hit the ground SPRINTING. We were up and running with handbooks, policies and procedures, I9 audits, affirmative action plan implementation, and overall review of our entire department. They were able to really identify and understand our business and give us solutions that were tailored to our needs. They not only provide support in any HR issue that may arise, Achilles Group also acts as our “HR Conscience.” In business, we come across issues where we ask ourselves, “what is the best way to handle this”…. Achilles Group comes in and helps us deduce and outline our approach to these conundrums of our world.

Another great thing Achilles Group does for our firm is provide a continual training schedule for our staff and management. It allows us to grow and develop professionally while keeping us in line with the most current HR rules, laws, and regulations. Achilles Group allows us to run our business while they act as our HR Gurus! We can call them at a moment’s notice and a member of their staff is always available. We have had nothing but pleasant, professional, and PRECISE service from Achilles Group. They are true assets and are part of our company, as if they work here right next to us.

AYG

AYG Construction

“When our business was becoming a bit chaotic, those close to me recommended that I contact Achilles Group for help. Through the creation of a new employee handbook and updates to our company policies and HR practices, they were able to strengthen the relationship between our employees and management team and bring a new sense of clarity to our business. I’d recommend Achilles Group to anyone—we’ll definitely continue to work with them in the future!”

Christopher

Christopher Brown President Southern Petroleum Laboratories

We found ourselves at possible risk due to our lacking HR practices. We needed to make our HR department more robust AND save money doing it! No small feat! Achilles Group came in, restructured the department and made our HR functions more effective.

Because of the HR expertise performed by Achilles Group and the training they have given our leadership team, our company is now able to avoid risk and handle employee issues smoothly.

2H

2H Offshore Inc.

When we first began working with Achilles Group in 2009, we had 38 employees. We reached over 120 before spinning off a small group to create a new company. Achilles has helped us navigate this exciting time by reducing some growing pains via thoughtful counsel, offering timely guidance as we hit different periods in our growth, and providing much needed insight into organising our larger team.

Our ‘small company feel’ culture is very important to us. We strive to ensure that our employees feel important, included and appreciated, where possible. We didn’t want to lose this as our company expanded. Achilles has played a vital role in assisting us to keep the culture that has been such a key component of our success. As a bonus, we have been voted one of the Best Places to Work for four years running!

We wanted Achilles Group to help us create and maintain a corporate culture similar to 2H (another Achilles Group client) while maintaining our own unique identity.

Their HR experts support and continue to help develop our HR manager, and has enhanced our staff with their Team Support trainings. We’re glad our risk has been reduced by the I-9 and File audits they have performed.

GMI

GMI Group

GMI Group is an expert in precision machining, product distribution, and metallurgical testing for domestic and international oilfield and industrial supply companies. Achilles Group was recommended to us when our HR functions started to become bigger than our skill set and a major HR issue arose that nobody could have foreseen. We were looking for a partner, not just a vendor, and that was something we have found with the Achilles Group.

Since then, Achilles Group helped us in a variety of situations. At one point, we wanted to provide different FMLA options to our employees who were going out for long periods of time and Achilles was able to help us understand what we could offer and how to execute it. They have also provided great training to our inside HR person, really empowering our Generalist to work through tasks like offer letters, weekly pay, etc. Achilles Group is the most give and take partner that we have!

Bob

Bob Gajeske Sr. Founder Gajeske, Inc.

Achilles Group has aided us with employee role clarity and helped us to evaluate a number of other HR situations.

Cyanco is the largest supplier of sodium cyanide to the gold mining industry.  We have developed our position through quality product and superior customer care. One of the main reasons we enjoy our partnership with Achilles group is that they work with us to create the structure and the plan on how we can implement large HR ideas. This can be anything from general employee issues to integrating broader HR initiatives to our various locations around the world.

My favorite part of our relationship with Achilles is the fact that we have an HR resource and expert that I can rely on whenever needed. This allows us to focus on what we do best – running the business.

Erwin

Erwin Distributing Co., Inc.

Erwin Distributing Co, Inc. owns and operates Wally’s Party Factory stores. At Wally’s, we offer an extensive selection of party supplies, balloons and costumes for all of life’s celebrations. When we first heard about Achilles Group, there were only two of us handling everything from operations to accounting to legal to HR. With everything on our plates, and with over twenty five stores spread across Texas and Oklahoma, it was challenging to adequately handle HR issues when they arose, especially if we were in the middle of another important project. In short, we knew that HR wasn’t receiving the full focus it needed. So when we found out that Achilles could manage it for us, we were excited to partner with them.

In addition to Achilles giving us the time to focus on what we do best, they have also freed us from worrying about recruiting and retaining an in-house HR team. We’re really too small to have an HR person on staff all the time; but we’re too large to not have an effective HR solution. Achilles is the perfect fit when it comes to a company like ours. They keep us in compliance, manage and implement effective HR strategies for us, and work well with our employees. We have always received nothing but the best account managers and wonderful personal service from Achilles. They are a superb partner, and have helped our business immensely.

ACT

ACT Pipe and Supply

ACT Pipe and Supply is the largest independently-owned waterworks and fire protection distributor in Texas. In 2003, we first enlisted Achilles Group to help us with our 1099 compliance and general HR guidance. Eighteen months later, I’m happy to say, that they were instrumental in hiring me to assist the Controller with payroll and Human Resources functions, as our company continued to grow.

Since then, Achilles Group has become a valuable resource for advice on anything from the latest regulations to filing an EEOC position statement. Achilles Group offers the advantage of vast experience in all areas of human resources. ACT Human Resources may have started as a party of one, but the Achilles Group staff of professionals completes the Department.
