Case Study: a growing architecture firm reduces risk and stabilizes benefits with PEO Blueprint

Growing Architecture Firm stabilizes healthcare costs and reclaims billable time with PEO Blueprint

A growing architecture firm with 34 employees was struggling with HR and compliance issues as it expanded into new states. The firm's principals were spending excessive time on administrative tasks instead of billable design work, and they faced escalating healthcare costs and multi-state payroll complexities. They engaged PEO Blueprint to conduct a strategic evaluation to determine if a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) was the right solution.

PEO Blueprint helped the firm select and negotiate with a right-fit PEO that understood the architecture and engineering sector. The solution centralized payroll, HR, and benefits, providing access to enterprise-level healthcare plans. As a result, PEO Blueprint helped the firm stabilize its benefits costs, reduce compliance risk, and reclaim significant billable time for its principals to focus on firm growth and design excellence.
