How Beaumont Property streamlined its system with Deel

O Beaumont Property Group é composto por sete empresas que vendem, alugam e administram propriedades comerciais na região noroeste de Sydney. Fundada em 1987, é uma organização familiar e a maior e mais antiga do seu género na região.

Quando o Beaumont Property Group foi fundado em 1987, era composto por duas empresas: uma agência imobiliária e uma empresa de gestão de estratos. Em março de 2023, o Grupo havia colocado outros cinco negócios sob sua égide, elevando o total para sete.

For the company’s accountants, who had taken care of the payroll for 36 years, this presented two challenges. First, it was time-consuming. “The accountants’ job wasn’t specifically payroll, so they were trying to set aside time here and there to do it,” says Robert Odenthal, Group Financial Controller.

Second, errors started appearing. “Little things were being missed regularly. It was nothing terrible and didn’t stop our businesses from running, but to the employee who sees a mistake or doesn’t receive their payslip, it’s important. Our reputation with our staff was affected. When little things are missed, people start to wonder what else is being missed.”

Rather than risk its reputation with its employees, Beaumont Group decided it was time to make a move. Given that its accountants lacked the specialist skills required to handle such a large payroll, the company decided to outsource. “Initially, because we’re a family business, we were looking to work with a small, local business,” says Robert, “But the ones we spoke to were anxious about the challenges they’d face in moving our old system to a new one.”

However, when Robert spoke to PayGroup by Deel, it was an entirely different story. “It was like, ‘We’ve done this before, we’ll do it again,'” he says. “A great level of confidence was communicated.”

Essa confiança surge da abordagem organizada e sistemática da PayGroup by Deel, bem como da expertise e experiência de seu pessoal. ” A abordagem deles para fazer a transição do nosso sistema para um novo parecia muito processual”, diz Robert. “Eles nos deram uma série de perguntas, prazos muito específicos e um plano de como isso fluiria.” Em 1º de julho — em três meses — o PayGroup havia, conforme prometido, transferido todas as informações relevantes para um novo banco de dados. Em 14 de julho, o sistema estava instalado e funcionando.

“Everything they said would happen did happen,” says Robert. On top of being incredibly efficient, PayGroup by Deel communicated clearly and regularly, and provided extensive support throughout the process. This meant Robert and his team were never in doubt.

“For the first three payrolls, the implementation team held our hand, and were very responsive,” he says. “Any time we had questions or difficulties, I knew I could send an email and very promptly get a response, or get on the phone and talk through whatever issues we had.”

A mudança da Beaumont para o PayGroup by Deel a ajudou a fornecer pagamentos, dados e relatórios precisos e compatíveis em uma variedade complexa de arranjos de trabalho, desde funções ocasionais até funções premiadas. O sistema interpreta automaticamente os prémios, eliminando a possibilidade de erro humano.

Employees have also regained trust in the system (and their employer). In fact, they enjoy using it, particularly the PayGroup by Deel mobile app. “The feedback from the staff is that it’s so easy to use and gives them all the right payroll information,” says Robert.
