Payroll
Strengthening Global Payroll Through Strategic Benchmarking
What the Client Needed
A global organisation was running payroll through fragmented ownership split between HR and Finance across Germany, China, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Vietnam.
Leadership lacked visibility into performance, standardisation, and cost efficiency across locations. They wanted an independent assessment to understand the maturity of their payroll operations, identify system and process gaps, and evaluate whether consolidating vendors or delivery models could reduce risk and improve quality.
Our Approach
Aidosol conducted a comprehensive Payroll Benchmarking and Maturity Assessment across all in-scope countries.
We reviewed ownership models, system landscapes, compliance controls, and service delivery design. Data analysis highlighted inconsistencies in process handoffs, limited system integration, and a lack of standardised governance.
We assessed the feasibility of payroll consolidation, including the impact of shifting to a single vendor, multi-vendor, or hybrid approach.
Our benchmarking insights provided clear visibility into operational gaps and improvement opportunities across accuracy, cycle time, cost, and compliance.
Impact Created
- Identified critical gaps in standardisation, integration, and operational control
- Highlighted consolidation opportunities that could reduce cost and improve payroll accuracy
- Delivered a clear 12–15-month roadmap for payroll transformation
- Established a foundation for shifting payroll ownership under Finance Shared Services
- Positioned the organisation to evaluate a more efficient vendor strategy after internal consolidation
