Washington-Based Swift HR Solutions Acquires Summit HR Solutions

Similar Business Model, Long-term Collaboration. Companies Aligned and Poised for Smooth Acquisition.

Swift HR Solutions, a consulting company providing human resources support, leadership development and talent recruiting services, acquires Colorado-based Summit HR Solutions. Following many successful collaborations over the years, and multi-tiered business alignment, the Summit HR Solutions acquisition and staff transition is expected to go smoothly.

Both companies share similar business models with a focus on stage-appropriate, best-in-class solutions for early-stage to mid-sized companies allowing them to successfully scale. The acquisition increases Swift HR Solutions’ capacity to service clients, broadens geographic reach, expands the team of talented and experienced HR consultants and allows the company to offer additional HR products and services to the Denver market. Shannon Swift, Swift HR Solutions’ CEO and founder explains, “Acquiring Summit HR Solutions just made perfect sense! We are thrilled for this opportunity and excited to expand upon the services Fred Holt has been offering in the Denver area.”

By coming together, both companies will be able to increase their capacity for supporting clients at every stage – from helping to establish a solid HR foundation that empowers companies to arrive at the next level with their people practices, to assisting with strategic organizational development. “I am proud of the Summit HR Solutions team and what we’ve delivered for our customers,” said Fred Holt, Summit HR Solutions founder and CEO. “This acquisition allows our team to become a part of an incredible larger group and make an even bigger impact with current and future customers.”

Swift HR Solutions is a Seattle-area pioneer of the fractional HR support business model. The company has enjoyed steady growth for 17 years and has been included in the Inc. 5000 list for the past three years in a row. What sets Swift HR Solutions apart is a highly accomplished team of senior-level HR professionals experienced in a wide range of industries including tech, healthcare, financial, retail, education and non-profit.
