Company Description
Kustom HR is a Morristown, New Jersey–based HR advisory firm that helps small and mid-market organizations optimize the value they get from payroll, benefits, compliance, and people operations. Founded and led by CEO Fred Karamanol, the team “went rogue” from traditional models to blend PEO advisory with Fractional HR into a comprehensive, customizable PEO Plus approach. Through its PEO Advantage service, Kustom HR benchmarks open-market and PEO options, audits proposals, exposes hidden or undisclosed fees, negotiates improved administrative rates, and orchestrates seamless transitions. Its Fractional HR consultants act as an extension of the client’s team—serving as HR manager and primary contact for employee benefits questions—while streamlining onboarding, policy development, compliance, and day-to-day HR workflows to elevate the employee experience. The firm’s structured HR X‑Ray process begins with discovery and data collection, followed by a rigorous evaluation that handpicks the best-fit benefits agencies and HCM platforms, engages compatible PEOs aligned to leadership vision, ensures fair and balanced financial comparisons, and negotiates from a position of strength. Kustom HR’s results are evidenced across diverse sectors, including professional services, hospitality, and construction: a specialty search firm realized $181,921 in annual savings; a country club restructured its budget to deliver $114,947 in total savings while adding HR support; a healthcare marketing agency captured $88,400 in savings and white-glove service; and a construction inspection firm achieved $30,507 in total savings through lower healthcare and administrative fees. With a 30‑day performance guarantee—if no tangible savings or optimizations are found, clients pay nothing—the firm provides transparent, high-touch guidance that reduces costs, improves service quality, and frees leadership to focus on growth. Whether maintaining a current PEO relationship or going to market, Kustom HR delivers vendor evaluation, negotiation, and fractional execution that modernizes HR operations and measurably improves outcomes.
