Frequently Asked Questions: Case Studies

What does the PEO evaluation process involve?

We analyze your current benefits arrangement against multiple PEO providers and open market insurance options, comparing plan designs, provider networks, administrative costs, and total cost structures. You receive a comprehensive marketplace analysis showing where your current arrangement stands and what alternatives exist, presented in an easy-to-understand format.

Do you only recommend PEO solutions or also traditional insurance?

We recommend whatever delivers the best value. Some clients save significantly by moving from open market to a PEO, others achieve better results leaving their PEO for traditional insurance, and some discover their current PEO already outperforms alternatives. Our marketplace analysis includes both PEO providers and open market options.

What’s the difference between PEO Consultants and a PEO sales rep?

PEO sales representatives promote their single solution regardless of fit. As independent PEO marketplace experts, we compare your current arrangement against multiple PEO providers and open market insurance alternatives to identify what genuinely serves your needs best. We have no financial incentive to recommend one solution over another.

How much have your clients saved by evaluating PEO options?

Documented results include 17% savings for a non-profit organization, 22% combined medical and workers compensation savings for a marketing company, $264,000 in annual reductions for an oil & gas company, and 26% savings for an architecture firm. Actual savings depend on your current arrangement, industry, employee count, and claims history.

Should I switch PEOs or stay with my current provider?

Not every evaluation results in switching. We’ve validated that some clients’ current PEO arrangements already deliver best-in-market value. Our objective analysis helps you make informed decisions—whether that means changing providers or staying put with confidence and documented proof for future negotiations.

Why These Results Matter!

These success stories demonstrate the value of working with an independent PEO marketplace expert who can compare PEOs objectively alongside open market alternatives. Unlike PEO sales representatives who only present their single solution, PEO Consultants evaluates the entire marketplace to identify your optimal benefits strategy.

Tremendous help throughout the entire process…​

I have worked with PEO Consultants since 2018. Chris helped tremendously throughout the entire process and continued throughout the first year with his support where needed. He continues to check-in to see how things are going and it is comforting to know that if we have any problems he will be there to go to bat for us if needed. I would highly recommend PEO Consultants and will use Chris again if the need arises. They take the confusion and headache out of shopping on your own by comparing each PEO’s offers and presenting it in an easy-to- deciphering manner. – Dorothy Nowetner, HR/Payroll Coordinator
