Business Challenges

  • Poor Benefits Administration:Working with PEO partners earlier for HR management was limiting the client’s ability to deliver unique benefits packages to its employees. Apparently, the client was receiving only three to four preset benefits packages from their HR outsourcing partner which were not attractive at all. Additionally, the client was not having dedicated HR resources who could handle the complexity of benefits administration. So, they were looking for a stronger partnership with a benefits technology solution provider who can help them deliver truly customized benefits offering to their workforce.
  • Complex HR: Before Kenz , the client was relying on a PEO solution for managing the routine HR tasks which were quite complex. Navigating through the software to perform daily workforce tasks was time-consuming and inefficient. The clunky interface and disjoint modules of the existing solution made the clients’ HR team hunt for a user-friendly, unified platform with next-gen technology.
  • Technology Support: When the client first hired the PEO they thought of specialized support to run and administer their employee benefits programs. The company wanted to improve upon billing errors, time and compliance challenges evident in the benefits administration. The absence of a market-leading solution with guided support was decreasing employee satisfaction towards clients’ benefits offerings.

After switching from the PEO solution, the client HR team hustled a lot to find an industry-leading benefits solution that’s easy-to-use, customizable and offers guided support.
