Folks and Komplice Announce Strategic Partnership to Simplify Payroll Management for SMBs

Two companies at the forefront of Canadian HR digital transformation are joining forces. Folks, a leading human resources management software for SMBs, and Komplice, a consulting firm specializing in payroll, strategic HR support, and HRIS implementation, are announcing a strategic partnership aimed at simplifying and enhancing the payroll experience for small and medium-sized businesses.

An Integrated Solution for a More Seamless HR Experience

Thanks to this collaboration, SMBs will benefit from an all-in-one solution that combines the technological power of Folks with Komplice’s extensive payroll expertise. The result: a smoother, more human, and more efficient HR experience.

Human Expertise Driving Innovation

Based in Quebec, Komplice has been supporting local businesses for several years in both strategic and operational payroll and HRIS management. Its personalized approach and recognized expertise make it a natural ally for Folks.

In practice, client companies can rely on Folks to centralize all their HR data and automate their processes, while Komplice takes full charge of payroll operations. From implementation and initial configuration to legal compliance, salary processing, and benefits administration — the complete range of expertise is covered. This complementarity reduces the risk of errors and lightens the administrative burden for SMEs.

“At Komplice, our mission is clear: to help our clients focus their energy where they create value. This partnership with Folks directly aligns with that vision — offering SMEs a complete HR and payroll solution that goes beyond process optimization to become a true driver of growth and long-term success.” – Jean-François Bordeleau, Co-Chair of Komplice

A Collaboration Designed for Local Businesses

This partnership directly addresses a real need among Canadian SMBs, where payroll management is often fragmented across multiple tools and workflows. Through this new synergy, Folks and Komplice enable better data integration, reduced errors, and significant time savings for HR professionals.

For companies seeking payroll only, the software is also offered as a standalone product. This flexibility allows SMBs to benefit from a simple, reliable, and efficient tool, without the need to commit to a full-service solution. They can choose exactly the level of support that suits their unique needs.
