“Insourcing” Is In Vogue When It Comes to Human Resources
Edison, New Jersey based Checkpoint HR offers a new way for mid-sized companies to manage payroll, benefits and human resources administration.
The term “outsourcing” has become a double-edged sword. To some it implies a cost-effective solution, and to others it implies a movement of jobs away, often to the detriment of many. In fact, one of the “hot” issues in the 2004 Presidential Campaign is the claim that when US corporations “outsource” IT and service jobs overseas, American workers are the victims.

“Insourcing” Is In Vogue When It Comes to Human Resources
(Princeton, NJ) Edison, New Jersey based Checkpoint HR offers a new way for mid-sized companies to manage payroll, benefits and human resources administration.
The term “outsourcing” has become a double-edged sword. To some it implies a cost-effective solution, and to others it implies a movement of jobs away, often to the detriment of many. In fact, one of the “hot” issues in the 2004 Presidential Campaign is the claim that when US corporations “outsource” IT and service jobs overseas, American workers are the victims.
Checkpoint HR, one of the nation’s leading BPOs (Business Process Outsourcers), is an example of a fast growing service company that by conventional wisdom would be defined as providing an “outsourcing” solution but who actually “insources” its services to mid-market companies that seek a single source solution for payroll, benefits and human resources administration.
The Human Resource departments of potential Checkpoint HR clients need not fear. In fact, many jump for joy. Checkpoint HR makes the life of an HR manager much less complicated, while often saving a client company significant money.
Checkpoint HR’s strength is in its technology. They allow client companies (most with between 50 and 2,000 employees) to utilize an integrated payroll/ human resources information system (HRIS) at a fraction of the cost that larger corporations have had to invest in similar systems. According to Checkpoint HR CEO Steve Rosenthal, “Compared to traditional payroll services, our platform is much more powerful. We offer so much more, often for much less. And when compared to a traditional end- to- end enterprise software packages, such as PeopleSoft or SAP, we are much cheaper, much faster to implement (a few weeks compared with many months), and we offer instant return on investment.”
The trend toward “insourcing” in this category is growing fast. In little over two years, Checkpoint HR has gone from a start-up to having more than 300 companies with more than 15,000 employees away from their traditional payroll companies. When it comes to payroll, benefits and HR, could it be that outsourcing is “out” and insourcing is “in”?
CheckPoint HR is a leading provider of human resource services and payroll solutions and part of a business sector that is expected to grow to a 50 billion dollar industry within five years. Checkpoint HR integrates a Payroll Service Bureau, Insurance Brokerage, and Human Resource functions through a combination of powerful Web-based Human Resource Information System (often referred to as HRIS) technology and personalized customer service.
