Finding the right person to maintain their critical payroll functions proved difficult, but it opened the door to a more creative solution. Enter Harris. Instead of replacing a headcount and investing the Time, Energy, and Attention into onboarding and training, Surfside connected with Harris Local Government to find a better way forward.

In no time, a Harris subject matter expert began processing Surfside Beach’s payroll leaving the team at Surfside free to focus on other matters. Was Surfside also free of worries regarding the quality of their payroll? You bet. In fact, not only was the Harris team able to take over payroll processing without missing a beat, but our emphasis on accuracy and data validation helped find some historical errors that will save Surfside headaches down the road.

You could definitely say Surfside is satisfied with Harris' service. So satisfied that they went from an initial agreement covering 2 payroll periods to a subsequent collaboration for 12 months, and finally on to a 3-year partnership.
