Bridging the Gap Between Innovation and Implementation
OUR WHY
In today’s world, Human Capital Management (HCM) technology is evolving faster than ever. Leading providers are investing up to 15% of their gross revenue into product development—creating powerful, sophisticated platforms designed to revolutionize how businesses integrate with their people.
But as the technology has advanced, a gap has emerged. Many organizations find themselves with tools that far exceed their capacity to implement, utilize, and manage effectively. The result? Untapped potential, underused systems, and missed opportunities to truly optimize their workforce.
At SharpenHR, we’re here to close that gap.
Our Owner’s Vision: The Next Evolution of HR Outsourcing
When our founder, Hampton Crump, began in the HR industry back in 1989, outsourcing payroll or HR was nearly unheard of for small to mid-sized businesses. Fast forward more than 35 years, and the landscape has completely changed—today, it’s rare to find a company that still handles these functions entirely in-house. Hampton has led hundreds of account executives and leaders throughout his career in the HCM industry and has been responsible for hundreds of millions in revenue as a corporate officer. However, he knew there was a better way.
We believe the next frontier is not only outsourcing your platform, but also outsourcing your user.
That’s where SharpenHR comes in. Our consultants act as an extension of your team—bringing unlimited bandwidth, deep system expertise, and proactive management to ensure your HR technology is fully optimized, every day.
When your provider releases a new module, we don’t wait. We help you evaluate, implement, and integrate it seamlessly—so you stay ahead, not behind.
