WSC began operations back in 1991 as a human resources, risk and payroll consulting boutique catering to the needs of small and mid-size employers. In 2003, WSC's Board of Directors decided that the time had come for the company to incorporate. This decision was based on the fact that it's CEO; Jeff Stevens, Ph.D. devised a new industry, the Workforce Solutions Organization (WSO) as well as the growth pattern and the business world's interest in this industry. The concept of the WSO came about after several years of various research efforts that studied the impact and return-on-investment (ROI) of various consultative and "co-employment" relationships. To this point, overall impact of consultative and "co-employment" has not met goals or expectations of clients not what has been advertised by the various entities. As such, a research team led by WSC's CEO created a concept that would offer a wide array of business solutions to small and mid-size employers and the WSO was born. The WSO would offer these services on a customized flat monthly rate as opposed to the current basic cookie cutter services offered as a percentage of payroll. It is important to note that the WSO is not an insurance broker nor a PEO or co-employer. Simply put, the WSO is a low cost, high service partner for small and mid size employers. The WSO is similar to a PEO in that it offers a full menu of HR, risk and payroll services. However, the WSO differs from a PEO in many key aspects. 1. The WSO does not co-employ as the proposed relationship does not truly exist. Further, this allows the client to truly maintain control of its employees instead of placing them into a bureaucratic quagmire. 2. The WSO truly customizes its services and documents to meet the particular needs of its clients. Further the documents have the client's name on them and not the WSO's. 3. The WSO also conducts general business functions for companies, such as business assessments and strategies, supply chain, quality control and operations manuals, among others. 4. The WSO fees are much less than those charged by the PEO. Further, this low fee allows the client access to the extensive Menu of Services detailed later in this proposal. From it's humble beginnings as sole proprietor boutique that began in 1991 and has blossomed into a full fledged human capital and business processes provider. Currently WSC finds itself working with companies in 11 states as well as Taiwan, Mexico and China. WSC is a Workforce Solutions Organization that provides a wide array of human capital and general business solutions on both an outsourced as well a product and/or service partner. This emerging industry has been very favorable compared to the Professional Employer Organization in that it provides more services with less cost and bureaucratic entanglements.
