RISE offers an affordable, complete suite of Human Capital Management (HCM) services, from more professional payroll administration and time/attendance tracking, to fully compliant hiring and benefits administration—all with a much higher standard of personal service and care than the more costly, volume-driven brands can offer.
Over 35 years ago, a group of New York accountants were sharing the difficulties their clients were experiencing with the giant, one-size-fits-all payroll systems. These sales-oriented, volume focused companies not only often overcharged, but their systems lacked the accounting perspective that their clients—and their CPAs—truly needed. Many businesses were dissatisfied, yet lacked an affordable alternative.
This conversation led to the launch of PBI Payroll, a firm that holds itself to a higher standard of personalized service and professional accounting standards. PBI has been recognized for its exceptional quality and service by the American Payroll Association, is increasingly referred by CPAs and financial professionals, and has become one of the fastest growing payroll firms in the United States.
Over the years, PBI has expanded its services to apply the same level of affordable, white-glove service to Human Capital Management (HCM), Time & Attendance Systems, ACA Compliance, and Benefits Adminstration.
RISE Strategic selected PBI Payroll as our exclusive Payroll/HCM partner because they share our core values of offering business owners a higher level of consultative experience, transparency, and personal attention more affordably—without the hidden fees, underperformance, and often predatory sales practices of the big payroll mills.
Discover for yourself why our clients choose PBI—contact your RISE Account Manager or call (844) 811-5252 to ensure you receive your RISE discount in your PBI Payroll quote.
For regulatory, compliance, and liability purposes, RISE clients work directly with PBI and are billed separately from their other RISE programs for their Payroll/HCM/HR services. You will have a dedicated point of contact at PBI for these areas, although your RISE Account Manager always remains abreast of all your programs within the RISE family of services.

When the Affordable Care Act (ACA) became law, employers found themselves with a new stack of regulations with which to contend with each new employee. From ensuring you are calculating your full-time employees properly to filling out the proper paperwork, the requirements were daunting for many employers. Even worse, failing to properly handle it all can result in hefty fines and penalties that quickly add up.
Our ACA Comply system, part of our web-based solution, is the natural choice to stay ACA-compliant. Integrated right into your payroll system, the program offers dashboards and reporting features that enable you to easily and affordably meet the ACA requirements and make confident decisions.
