HR consultants: is Kervalt a fit?

1 / 10

Processing payroll, medical certificates, and dismissal letters for many clients makes strict separation of contexts a daily challenge.

Cross-client contamination is not a bug; it is the end of the business.

What we are gauging: Whether isolation between client contexts is provable. For an HR provider, one contamination incident is an existential event.

2 / 10

A social inspection question about a payroll calculation requires manually gathering sources from portals.

Every figure should be traceable to the document it came from.

What we are gauging: The defensibility of payroll calculations. Every figure should trace to its source document without heroics.

3 / 10

When a new collective agreement or circular appears, identifying every affected client is manual work.

Missed changes are where liability lives.

What we are gauging: The coverage of legislative monitoring across the client base. Missed changes are where HR liability quietly accumulates.

4 / 10

Advice given before is rebuilt for new questions because the earlier work is not immediately findable.

Last year's analysis should be retrieved, not rebuilt.

What we are gauging: How much advice is reused versus rebuilt. Re-billed reinvention is margin disguised as diligence.

5 / 10

Continuity during an interim consultant's absence rests on handover between people.

Continuity should be the product, not the risk.

What we are gauging: The continuity of service when a consultant drops out. The handover decides whether the client relationship survives the absence.

6 / 10

Knowledge per client, playbook, history, and open items, travels with the consultant; the dossier carries it incompletely.

A colleague should step in without the client feeling the gap.

What we are gauging: Whether client knowledge is institutionalised in written cases or carried in consultants' heads.

7 / 10

A GDPR Article 17 deletion request requires manual tracing across all systems today.

'We deleted the email' is not compliance.

What we are gauging: GDPR erasure capability: whether a deletion request can be executed and proven across every system, AI logs included.

8 / 10

Certainty about whether AI tools train on payroll data cannot be given today.

For payroll data, 'probably not' is not an answer.

What we are gauging: The certainty you can give about training on client data. For payroll data, 'probably not' is not an answer a client accepts twice.

9 / 10

If our software vendor or social secretariat launched its own AI advisory, our client memory would sit on their platform, not in assets we own.

Renting your competence is not owning it.

What we are gauging: Who owns the assets the client relationship runs on. Memory on a vendor's platform is a rental, not an asset.

10 / 10

A prospect cannot be shown today, down to the disk, where their data would live.

'ISO-certified cloud' no longer closes deals; proof does.

What we are gauging: Whether data location can be proven in the room where deals are won. Proof closes what certifications no longer close.
