Payroll implementation process

Simple steps to implement your payroll.

1. Initial assessment

First, we will evaluate your company’s payroll needs, choose the suitable services and prepare the initiation of the selected services. We will also identify areas we can improve to enhance the overall payroll process.

2. Service blueprint

After choosing our services, we will make a payroll blueprint document which outlines everything about the payroll administration (including calculation details, initial data migration, ongoing processing, payroll calendar and reporting requirements and employee services). This blueprint will act as reference for both parties.

3. Testing phase

We customise the payroll system to satisfy your demands, launch the system, transfer the employee data and combine the transaction data while we organise a test environment.

4. Parallel run & evaluation

Our next step is to analyse the outcomes with past payroll calculations which we will then evaluate the calculation differences and shift to our payroll system for the agreed amount of time.

5. Production

Your payroll system is prepared and ready for kick-off.

Ongoing customer support from people who care about your team.

Count on us whenever you need payroll and tax support. We will always send you notices of any regulation changes that involve your company or staff even if your company is functioning well.

FAQ

Common questions.

When is outsourcing payroll a good idea for companies?

The payroll function is a non-core function in that it is not a profit. A non-core function may be essential but does not differentiate your business strategically from competitors. Albeit a non-core function, if run correctly, the payroll function plays an important role in maintaining a high level of employee satisfaction and ensuring the company is compliant with the wide range of   labour laws, tax laws for employee income withholding taxes, social security, minimum wage, compensation, etc. Outsourcing payroll is a good idea if:

  • A company wants to free up time and resources from repetitive and administrative tasks and reallocate the resources to be focused on strategic matters relating to the core business.
  • A company wants to gain access to more technology and technical expert in the field expertise and experience to perform payroll in a fully compliant way.
  • A company wants to reduce hidden costs and risks associated with non-compliance that can result from amongst others failure to adopt new/changes in regulations which often have very short lead times.
Can my company do the payroll by itself?
Yes, usually a company has one person (payroll staff) performing all the payroll processing functions. But it there is a risk when the person cannot perform the job when they are on sick leave or leaves the company. In most cases, the business rules pertaining to payroll such as policies and standards, are not well documented, but rather is in the form of knowledge of the payroll staff , whereas knowledge transfer upon departure of the payroll staff cannot be guaranteed 100%.
