Working With ADB

What prospective clients often want to know

What is fractional Human Resources support?
Fractional Human Resources support gives an organization access to experienced Human Resources leadership without hiring a full time internal executive. The level of support is structured around the organization's needs and may include leadership advisory, employee relations, compliance, Human Resources operations, workforce planning, and organizational support.
Who is ADB HR Consulting best suited for?
ADB HR Consulting is best suited for small and growing businesses, multistate employers, and leadership teams that need experienced Human Resources support, stronger infrastructure, or guidance on complex workforce matters.
Are services provided remotely?
ADB HR Consulting primarily provides services remotely, allowing the firm to support organizations across different locations. Any onsite requirements are discussed as part of the engagement scope when applicable.
How can an organization work with ADB HR Consulting?
Engagements generally fall into three categories: ongoing fractional support, defined projects, and advisory guidance. The appropriate model depends on the scope of the need, internal resources, timing, workforce complexity, and the level of ongoing support required.
Can ADB HR Consulting support employers with employees in multiple states?
Yes. ADB HR Consulting has experience supporting multistate workforces and helping organizations address the Human Resources and compliance considerations that arise when employees are located across different states. The specific scope depends on the states involved and the organization's workforce needs.
Can you help with onboarding and offboarding?
Yes. Onboarding and offboarding support may be included within an ongoing fractional engagement or addressed as part of a broader process improvement project, depending on scope. Support may include workflows, documentation, role responsibilities, manager guidance, employee communications, and related Human Resources practices.
What types of defined Human Resources projects do you support?
Defined projects may include employee handbooks, Standard Operating Procedures, Human Resources compliance reviews and audits, Human Resources operations and technology projects, defined employee relations consulting, and employment litigation support. Depending on scope, some project work may also be incorporated into a broader ongoing engagement.
Do you support employee relations and performance matters?
Yes. Support may include employee concerns, performance management, corrective action, documentation, conflict resolution, workplace complaints, and manager guidance. Formal investigative work is considered case by case based on the jurisdiction, scope, and applicable requirements.
What does Employment Litigation Support include?
ADB HR Consulting can provide Human Resources subject matter support to employment counsel through review of personnel records, policies, practices, documentation, processes, and case materials. Services do not include legal advice, legal representation, or litigation strategy.
Can ADB HR Consulting work with an existing Human Resources team?
Yes. ADB HR Consulting can work alongside an internal Human Resources professional or team when additional senior guidance, project support, specialized expertise, or additional capacity is needed. The engagement can be structured around the responsibilities already handled internally.
Is interim Human Resources support available?
Yes. Temporary Human Resources support may be available during a vacancy, leave of absence, leadership transition, organizational change, or search for a permanent Human Resources leader. Scope and availability are determined based on the organization's needs.
How is pricing structured?
Services are proposal based and structured around the scope, complexity, timing, and level of support required. Defined projects are scoped around specific deliverables, while ongoing fractional engagements are structured according to the organization's expected Human Resources needs and agreed level of support.
Does submitting an inquiry automatically create a client relationship?
No. Submitting an inquiry does not create a client relationship. ADB HR Consulting first reviews the information provided to determine whether the need appears aligned with our services. A consulting relationship is established only after an engagement has been accepted and the appropriate agreement has been completed.
How do we get started?
Start by sharing a few details about your organization, workforce, and current Human Resources priorities through the contact page. ADB HR Consulting will review the inquiry and, if the need appears aligned with our services, contact you regarding the appropriate next step. This may include a discovery conversation followed by a proposal when applicable.
