ADP Unveils New Comprehensive HR and Benefits Services Designed for Mid-Sized Organizations
ROSELAND, NJ--(Marketwire - June 28, 2010) - [ ADP ]®, a leading provider of [ HR ], payroll and benefits administration services, today unveiled the latest step in the evolution of HR services for mid-sized organizations at the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) Annual Conference. ADP Workforce Now™ Comprehensive Services provides an even higher level of service and specialization to help mid-sized organizations (50-999 employees) with HR business process outsourcing (BPO) needs.
ADP Workforce Now Comprehensive Services is built on the proven ADP Workforce Now platform which provides a flexible, integrated solution for managing HR, benefits, payroll, time and attendance, and talent management. These services are an extension of a client's HR and Benefits departments. The client gains one-stop access to an assigned team of specialists who provide guidance, transaction processing, and best practice recommendations in areas such as recruiting, employee relations, benefits administration, training, risk and safety, and regulatory compliance.
"Historically, a mid-sized company had to cobble together a collection of software solutions and outsourcing relationships in an attempt to address their administrative and compliance needs. This patchwork quilt of vendors and systems often led a company to experience technical and service frustrations caused by a lack of integration and accountability across relationships," said Regina Lee, President of ADP Major Account Services and Small Business Services. "With ADP Workforce Now Comprehensive Services, clients gain access to a single, flexible technology solution combined with hands-on service and expertise to address the complete recruitment-to-retirement continuum. It's an unmatched offering in this marketplace."
More than 3,500 clients have selected ADP Workforce Now technology offerings since the product was initially launched in October 2009. An additional 300 clients have opted to use the comprehensive services model. The growing demand for comprehensive services is driven by the rapid pace of legislative and regulatory changes and the need to focus on core business issues, rather than time-consuming administration.
"For a company my size, it would be almost impossible for me to staff this level of expertise internally," said Elizabeth Mayes, Director, Employee Relations and Human Resources at The Berry Company. "With ADP Workforce Now Comprehensive Services, I gain access to an ADP relationship manager and a team of specialists to help make sure our business is compliant while providing a much higher level of service to my employees."
ADP's specialists are available for more than providing strategic guidance. They also roll up their sleeves and provide heavy lifting such as administrative support so clients can focus on higher value strategic issues.
"Our organization is the embodiment of almost every challenge facing mid-sized businesses today. We're heavily distributed, constantly navigating change, and dealing with multiple systems and solutions that needed integration and attention," said Louis Cimini, Vice President of Human Resources at Samsonite. "ADP Workforce Now Comprehensive Services empowers my small HR department to provide more value to our employees. ADP gives us the one-stop shop for administrative support, expertise, and technology that we previously lacked."
