Accelerated advisors working through a client's workforce strategy
Independent PEO & Workers' Compensation Advisory

Is Your Workforce Strategy Working Against You?

Most employers overpay for their professional employer organization (PEO) or workers’ compensation program, stay under-supported by their HR outsourcing provider, or get stuck in the wrong structure, and don’t know it. Accelerated provides independent workforce advisory services to help growing businesses evaluate and improve HR, payroll, workers’ compensation risk management, and benefits strategy, identifying the right solutions to support growth, efficiency, and cost savings.

The Problem

Sound Familiar?

HR and payroll are consuming time that should go toward growth. Workers’ compensation premiums keep rising with no clear explanation, and workers’ compensation compliance requirements only add to the burden. Group insurance and benefits costs increase every year while employee satisfaction stays flat or declines. Compliance requirements are complex, and the risk of getting it wrong is real.
You shouldn’t need to be an expert in workers’ compensation cost management, PEO contracts, and benefits law all at once. That’s what we’re here for.

You shouldn't need to be an expert in all of this. That's what we're here for.

How We Help

Independent Advice Across the Full Market

We are not a PEO. We are not a payroll company. We represent you.

We are not a PEO. We are not a payroll company. We represent you.
PEO companies sell their own solutions. Payroll companies sell their platforms. Accelerated represents your interests across the entire PEO and workers’ compensation marketplace.
We analyze your workforce, uncover cost drivers, evaluate PEO and payroll providers across the marketplace, and negotiate on your behalf to identify the right PEO administration or workers’ compensation risk management solution for your business.
Our recommendations are guided by your goals, your workforce, and your bottom line, not by a single provider’s agenda. Our team brings CPA-level financial analysis, senior workers’ compensation underwriting experience, and executive-level relationships with leading PEOs and carriers. That means better pricing, stronger programs, and decisions you can stand behind.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is workforce advisory?

Workforce advisory is independent guidance that helps businesses optimize HR, payroll, workers’ compensation, employee benefits, and overall workforce strategy. Accelerated evaluates your current structure, compares options across the market, and helps you make decisions based on your business goals and bottom line.

Not quite. HR consulting typically focuses on HR processes, policies, and people management. Workforce advisory takes a broader approach, looking at HR, payroll, benefits, workers’ compensation, PEOs, costs, risk, and workforce strategy as a whole.

We are independent. PEOs and payroll companies sell their own solutions, while Accelerated represents your interests. We evaluate providers across the marketplace and help you identify the solution that best fits your business.

Yes. We analyze your current programs to identify cost drivers, inefficiencies, and opportunities for improvement. When appropriate, we also evaluate alternative providers and negotiate competitive pricing on your behalf.

Absolutely. We can review your current PEO arrangement, pricing, workers’ compensation, benefits, and overall service structure to determine whether it remains competitive or if another solution may be a better fit.

Yes. Accelerated provides independent group insurance and supplemental benefits advisory services, helping employers evaluate health, dental, vision, and supplemental benefit options across the marketplace.

Growing businesses that want to reduce costs, improve workforce programs, evaluate a PEO or payroll provider, manage workers’ compensation, strengthen employee benefits, or simply determine whether their current strategy is still the right fit can benefit from an independent workforce advisor.
