Your Internal HR Can’t Do It All — And That’s Okay

Written by Comploy | Apr 22, 2025 4:12:06 AM

Let’s be real—HR teams are the heart of any business. But even the most dedicated internal HR professionals can only do so much, especially when juggling everything from onboarding and payroll to compliance and employee relations.

At Comploy, we’ve seen it all: lean HR teams wearing ten hats, solo administrators trying to keep up with changing laws, and growing companies suddenly overwhelmed by the complexity of managing people. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you're not failing.

The truth is, modern HR has outgrown the one-person department. That’s where Administrative Services Only (ASO) support comes in.

What Is ASO Support, Really?

ASO services are a way to outsource the administrative side of HR without handing over complete control. Think of us as an extension of your team—here to lighten the load, keep things compliant, and bring structure to your people operations.

With ASO support through Comploy, you can keep your in-house HR leadership focused on strategy and culture, while we handle the behind-the-scenes work that still needs to be done right. That includes:

  • Payroll processing and tax filing

  • Employee onboarding and offboarding

  • Benefits administration

  • Policy updates and handbooks

  • Compliance reporting

  • Workers’ comp coordination

  • And more

When Should You Consider ASO Support?

If you’re asking yourself this question, the answer is probably: yesterday.

Here are a few signs it might be time to bring in reinforcements:

  • You’ve outgrown your systems. Your spreadsheet-and-email setup isn’t cutting it anymore, and mistakes are slipping through the cracks.

  • You’re constantly reacting. If HR is always in emergency mode, there’s no room to build or improve.

  • Compliance is stressing you out. Changing wage laws, FMLA requests, ACA reporting—these aren’t optional, and getting them wrong can cost you.

  • Your HR pro is overworked. Even superheroes need sidekicks (the professional kind).

The Outcome? A Stronger, Smarter HR Function

ASO services don’t replace your HR team—they empower them. With Comploy by your side, you get:

  • Scalable HR infrastructure

  • Reduced administrative burden

  • Confidence in compliance

  • Time back to focus on your people

Because the goal isn’t to outsource your culture—it’s to protect it. And that means giving your team the tools and support they need to do their best work.
