2. Introduction
The Barbelo Group is a one stop Human Resources Outsourcing, Staffing and Consulting
firm. It is the only outsource and consulting HR organization in the industry to apply Six
Sigma methodologies to Human Resources Management. The combination of Six
Sigma and Human Resources give employers:
More time to run their business,
Less HR cost to reinvest back to their organization and
Less deficiencies to avoid legal and employee issues.
The ability to measure and improve quality in Human Resources has been the
competitive advantage of successful organizations for decades. However, the

in-house. Companies will get the benefits of having a highly capable HR organization
consisting of high caliber staff through the Barbelo Group. Employers can finally plan
and forecast their annual HR cost by developing a customized HR outsourcing or
consulting package focused on their organization’s goals and needs.

development, technology integration / implementation and Six Sigma Lean.
