Private Equity Portfolios

Fast-moving companies that need human capital due diligence pre-acquisition to uncover risks, liabilities, and integration challenges before a deal closes — and scalable HR infrastructure post-acquisition to embed compliance, policies, and people systems that drive growth and prepare for exit.

Founder-Led & Growth-Stage Businesses

Leaders who need professional HR without the full-time CHRO price tag. We design handbooks, processes, and systems that support rapid growth while reducing compliance risk.

Industrial & Field-Based Companies

Hourly-heavy, multi-state workforces where turnover, safety, and compliance risks pile up fast. We bring structure to employee relations, leave management, and workforce compliance so operators can focus on productivity.

Small & Mid-Sized Enterprises

Companies of any size who need help with specific HR projects — from audits and investigations to compensation structuring and HR tech rollouts. No matter the project, we scale our support to fit your needs.

Fractional CHRO

→ Executive-level HR leadership for companies that need a seasoned CHRO but not a full-time hire. We design people strategy, coach leaders, and manage compliance so HR drives growth, not distractions.

HR Audits & Transaction Readiness

→ A full 360° checkup of your HR function — hiring, pay, policies, benefits, compliance, and safety.
→ Specialized Human Capital Diligence & Readiness for private equity: pre-acquisition risk sizing and pre-sale remediation that prevents red flags from surfacing in diligence.

Workforce Policies & Processes

→ Employee handbook creation and overhaul (delivered digitally, always updated).

→ Leave & accommodation administration to keep you compliant with FMLA, ADA, and state laws.
→ Independent investigations of harassment, discrimination, or retaliation claims

Employee Relations & Manager Support
