- Goal is to provide holistic, interactive, and educational communication to employees about their benefits programs

- Increase employee-level attention and interaction that is meaningful and relevant (utilizing a variety of tools and resources that include group meetings, one one one educational sessions, call center support, mobile apps, etc)
- Partner with employee engagement experts who can customize a culture-specific education initiative as well as educational and customized support from “hire to retire”.
- Offer the ability for end-user customers to partner with an organization that can operate as an extension of Human Resources (including annual and perpetual enrollment and new hire onboarding services)
Technology Assessment:
- Goal would be to simplify administration of benefits for the employer, assist with establishing and maintaining ACA compliance, and seamlessly integrating with other third party systems
- Technology needs and available platforms are rapidly changing. Some are good and some are not.
- Evaluate platform capabilities (decision making support tools, Payroll/HRIS system connections, Time and Attendance Reporting, Employee Benefits portal, compliance services, etc.)
- Determining what functionality an end user customer needs
- Determining whether or not carriers have established feed capabilities
