Strategic HR Support on Your Terms
RightFit HR is EANE’s flexible, fractional, on-demand HR support. Engage us for ongoing monthly support, a defined project, or to fill an urgent gap.
Maybe your only HR person just left, or maybe you’ve been doing HR yourself for years on top of running the business. Maybe HR is getting more complicated or you might be with a PEO that isn’t working anymore.
RightFit HR gives your organization a dedicated HR Business Partner who learns your organization, backed by EANE’s full team of specialists. Tier your support up or down month to month as your needs change. No annual contract.
How RightFit HR Works
There are a number of ways to use RightFit HR:
- Ongoing monthly support: Flexible HR support you can scale up or down as your needs change.
- Defined project work: A specific HR project with a clear scope and defined outcomes.
- Urgent fill-in: You have a gap in coverage and you need someone today.
Step 1: Key compliance audit
Workplace policies, handbook, classification, leave administration, posting compliance, documentation, and more. You get a clear roadmap of what to fix in what order, ranked by risk and effort.
Step 2: Match with a dedicated HR Business Partner
We match based on industry, region, organizational stage, and the type of work. Your HR Business Partner becomes part of your team. Same person, not a rotating contact, not a portal, not a queue.
Step 3: Ongoing strategic support
Choose your tier and start. Adjust the tier month to month as your needs change. Your HR Business Partner pulls in the broader EANE team when the work calls for it, and they manage the handoffs so you don’t have to.
Choose the Tier That Fits
Change your tier month to month. Step up when a project lands or a hiring season hits. Step down when things settle. No annual contract, no penalty for adjusting. Or, go beyond tiers and we’ll provide a scope based on your specific needs.

When RightFit HR is the Right Fit
Most organizations are facing one of the following situations:
1. Your HR person just left, or is on the way out. A capacity gap, a transition gap, or both at once. Maybe they gave notice or maybe they’re already gone. RightFit HR fills the gap quickly with someone who knows what they’re doing, while you decide whether to rehire, restructure, or stay with us.
2. You’re the owner or the COO, and you’ve been doing HR on top of everything else. No HR background, no HR system, just a business that’s grown past the point where you can keep doing it on the side. You don’t need a portal or a payroll vendor. You need a real HR person on your team who can take the work off your plate and tell you what you don’t know you don’t know.
3. Your workforce is getting more complex. Seasonal hiring that doubles your headcount in summer. Employees in MA, CT, and RI, each with different state laws. RightFit HR is built to handle the challenges your organization actually has.
4. You have a defined project or short-term need. You’re not looking for ongoing support, you need help with a specific project, or coverage for a short window.
5. Your PEO isn’t working anymore. You’re locked in annually. You’ve lost the go-to person. The cost keeps rising. The personalization that sold you in year one isn’t there anymore. RightFit HR is an alternative without the annual commitment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is RightFit HR a PEO?
No. We don’t take on co-employment. Your employees stay your employees. Your tax ID stays yours. Your benefits, payroll, and workers comp stay where they are unless you ask us to help you change them. RightFit HR is the HR support alongside your team, not a co-employer arrangement.
How is this different from hiring an outside HR consultant?
RightFit HR is a structured program, not an hours-only consulting arrangement. You get a dedicated HR Business Partner who knows your business, a full specialist team behind them, a compliance audit, and the ability to scale your support up or down month to month.
Can I change tiers, or step outside the tiers entirely, month to month?
Yes, both. Step up when a project lands or hiring picks up. Step down when things change. Step out of the tier structure entirely if your needs are project-based or short-term.
Can I engage RightFit HR for a single project instead of ongoing support?
Yes. Project-based engagements are a core part of how RightFit HR works, not an exception. Members bring us a defined scope, we deliver the work, and you get it back. No ongoing contract required.
Is there a minimum engagement length?
No. We’ve worked with clients on short-term projects as well as projects that have lasted years. RightFit HR scopes to the work. The length of the engagement matches your situation, not the other way around.
What if I already have an HR person?
RightFit HR works alongside in-house HR, and many of our engagements look exactly like that. Our HR Business Partners handle the strategic and specialty work that’s hard for one person to carry on their own, like compensation design, employee relations, executive coaching, recruiting, and audits. Your HR person stays at the center of day-to-day.
How do you match me with an HR Business Partner?
We look at your industry, your region, your organizational stage, and the type of work. Manufacturing matches differently than nonprofits. A 30-person organization matches differently than a 90-person org with an existing HR person. The HR Business Partner becomes part of your team, so the fit matters more than speed.
What states do you work in?
Primarily Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island, where most of our HR Business Partners and specialists live and work. We support members and clients across New England and have employees in additional states through EANE’s network. If you have multi-state employees, we’ll tell you upfront whether the scope is a fit.
How long is a typical engagement?
Most engagements run three to six months at a steady tier, with many extending past that. Some have run for years. The structure is built so you can stay as long as it’s helping and step out when it’s not. We’d rather you graduate to the right in-house team than keep paying for support you’ve outgrown.
What does the compliance audit cover?
Workplace policies, employee handbook, classification, leave administration, posting compliance, documentation patterns, and the state-specific items that change based on where your employees live. You get a roadmap of what to fix in what order, ranked by risk and effort.
How fast can we get started?
Discovery call within a week. Audit and HR Business Partner match within two to three weeks. Ongoing work in motion within the first month. If you’re in an active crisis, we can move faster.
