About Us

Over 25 years of Business, HR, and Strategic Leadership Experience

We have become a partner that clients can trust.

Our Story

Since the very beginning of our company origin, the mission has been the same – to empower growing organizations and their employees through training and development.

What started as an extension to Digitec Solutions – our sister company, Sovran Training, providing only educational courses has since evolved to support the entire employee life cycle. Today, SovranHR, a unit of Support Functions, Inc. is proud to support our client’s multi-faceted Human Capital Management needs.

For over 25 years, our clients have trusted us to put them on the path to sustainable, long-term growth. From finding top talent to helping employees grow through succession planning, and providing HR support, guidance, and consulting services on both tactical and mission-critical operations, SovranHR is dedicated to helping our clients lead smarter in order to grow stronger.

Integrity

Integrity is the foundation of our organization and service offerings. We are committed to delivering quality and excellence in all our services and maintain high ethical standards in everything we do. Our core values of honesty, loyalty, and trustworthiness shape our principled workplace and build trust and confidence in our customers.

Respect

We are committed to ensuring a work culture based on mutual respect and dignity. A principled workplace is free of harassment, discrimination, and uncivil behavior. We believe that everyone deserves to be treated fairly and professionally, and we value each individual’s unique talents and contributions.

Transparency

We promote open, honest communication and feedback between team members — and also with our customers. As we see it, transparency is the foundation of trust: and trust is what produces outstanding teamwork. Our open business practices help us to innovate and grow, and improve customer support and satisfaction.

Purposefully designed to put ethics and people first, we have become a partner that clients can trust to find long-term solutions to many of their HR and performance problems.

We don’t believe in the

“one-size-fits-all” approach.

SovranHR offers exceptional customer service by developing customized, cost-effective, and sustainable solutions to support all of your HR and performance goals. Everything we do is tailored to our client’s specific needs. This shapes the way we work.

Needs Analysis

Our team of expert consultants will sit down with your leadership to discuss areas for improvement, and to determine what has worked well in the past and what hasn’t. We’ll then analyze this preliminary information and use it to define a scope of work.

Scope of Work

Based on our discussion of your needs, SovranHR’s team will prepare a comprehensive Statement of Work that clearly defines the project: roles, deadlines, milestones, and deliverables. If an ongoing engagement is required, we’ll provide a clear statement of roles and responsibilities so that you’ll know what to expect from month to month.

Diagnosis Audit

At this stage, we’ll take a much more granular look at the relevant historical data, metrics, KPIs, and files. The goal here is to provide an accurate, quantifiable benchmark that we can use to measure the current vs. the desired state.

Proposed Solution(s)

We give you a clear, actionable, and prioritized list of steps to take that will move your organization to the desired state as quickly as possible. Any solution that we offer will also address best practices and current compliance gaps, and will include a detailed timeline for implementation.

Implementation

We can help you with the implementation of the solution as well. This includes everything up to and including full implementation, as well as help with training or transitioning your teams.
