SESCAP

What SESCAP does

SESCAP is a French social-expertise management-consulting firm (cabinet d'expertise sociale) registered as a sole proprietorship at RCS Grenoble and headquartered in Eybens, Isère. Founded by Cindy (Directrice générale), the firm delivers outsourced payroll, social declarations, HR administration, labor-law advisory, compliance auditing and workplace risk-prevention services to employers of all sizes and sectors across the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. The portfolio is organised into five integrated service lines - Expertise sociale, Paye, Conseil social, Audit, and Sécurité & Prévention des risques - that map to the full employee lifecycle from recruitment and contract management through payroll and termination, including URSSAF audit support and drafting of the Document unique risk-prevention plan.

Underlying delivery relies on standard French-market payroll and HR software rather than proprietary technology, supplemented by partnerships with an IT services provider and a remote secretarial service. The firm also operates as a referral partner for multiple accounting practices (cabinets d'expertise-comptable) in the Rhône-Alpes, which route clients needing specialist labor-law and social expertise to SESCAP while retaining core accounting work. The team is small (founder, a jurist manager, and a communications/administrative hire), positioning the business as a specialist micro-practice rather than a scaled outsourcing platform.

SESCAP monetises through quote-based annual recurring fees for ongoing payroll and HR administration work, plus fixed-rate exceptional services for one-off items such as severance calculations (solde de tout compte). Pricing is unregulated (libre) and tailored to scope and time, with no publicly disclosed price list. The go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven - direct referrals, accounting-firm partner referrals, and inbound through the company website - targeting SMB employers across all sectors horizontally.

Broad incumbents

• Sage France: Sage provides Sage Paie, a payroll and HR compliance solution widely used by French SMBs and offered through accounting-firm partners. It overlaps with SESCAP's recurring payroll work, especially where Sage handles tasks previously outsourced to social-expertise firms.
• Fiducial: Fiducial is a major French accounting, payroll, and HR services firm serving SMBs nationwide. It bundles payroll and social-law support that overlaps directly with SESCAP and is the type of accounting group whose partners SESCAP currently relies on for referrals.
• SD Worx France: SD Worx is a European HR and payroll services group with a French footprint offering managed payroll, HR administration, and labor-law advisory. Its people-intensive HR services model closely mirrors the way SESCAP delivers expertise sociale and Conseil social.
• Cegid: Cegid is a French cloud-business software vendor offering Cegid Paie & RH for payroll, HR, and talent management. It competes with SESCAP's Paye and Expertise sociale products at the software layer, especially inside accountant-recommended toolstacks.
• ADP France: ADP is a global payroll, HR, and workforce-management vendor with a French operation serving SMBs through enterprise. It competes broadly with SESCAP on payroll processing and social declarations while also offering scale and technology SESCAP cannot match.
• EBP (Groupe EBP): EBP is a French SMB-focused accounting and payroll software provider widely used by very small businesses and independent accountants. Its EBP Paie product competes with SESCAP's recurring payroll processing for the smallest clients.

Regional players

• Cerfrance: Cerfrance is a French associative network of accounting and advisory firms serving agriculture and SMBs, providing payroll and social-law services through local offices. It competes with SESCAP within the same Rhône-Alpes SMB segment and is another type of partner-or-rival depending on referral depth.

Direct peers

• PayFit: PayFit is a French-origin payroll and HR SaaS platform automating payslips, declarations, and onboarding for small and mid-sized businesses across Europe. It directly competes with SESCAP on the recurring payroll-processing line and is gradually adding advisory features that overlap with social conseil.
• Silae: Silae is a French payroll and HR software platform serving SMBs and accountants, providing automated payslip generation, social declarations (DPAE, DSN), and labor-law updates. It is a direct competitor to SESCAP's Paye and social-expertise offerings, attacking from the software side of the same workflow.
• Nibelis: Nibelis is a French payroll and HR outsourcing provider combining SaaS with managed services for SMBs and mid-market firms. Its hybrid model (software + experts) most closely matches SESCAP's combination of payroll execution plus social-law advice.
