Workscape Alliance Program Designed to Complement Broker Offerings and Bring Added Value to Customers
FRAMINGHAM, Mass. (October 28, 2004) - Workscape, Inc., a proven provider of outsourced benefits and workforce management solutions, today announced the introduction of its new nationwide partner program. Known as the Workscape Broker Alliance Program, it is available to insurance brokers and consultants that service employers with greater than 2,500 benefits-eligible employees and wish to supplement their offering with Workscape's benefits administration solution, OneForce™/Benefits.
Workscape's award winning OneForce/Benefits solution complements the broker's services, which typically includes benefit strategy, risk analysis, provider evaluation and vendor selection, by automating the full range of benefits services for broker customers- enrollment and eligibility management, service center, employee communications, vendor management, and COBRA, HIPAA, FSA administration. Additionally, Workscape provides broker customers with a full range of service delivery options, including Web-based applications, interactive voice response, and an HR Service Center.
Tim Clifford, President and CEO of Workscape, said, "By partnering with Workscape, insurance brokers and HR consultants can bring a unique value proposition to customers - best-of-breed subject matter expertise combined with best-in-class administrative services. And through an expanded service offering, Workscape channel partners can differentiate themselves from competitors, while strengthening their market position and customer base."
Clifford added, "Brokers are finding that they have to go beyond transactional solutions and bring new ideas to clients to help them solve business problems. In order to achieve growth, insurance brokers need to be more consultative and truly understand a client's business and offer solutions that will have a bigger impact on their bottom-line. Partnering with Workscape is a way for brokers to achieve consistent growth, have another offering in their portfolio of services, and position them as more consultative."
Brokers also benefit from a Workscape partnership by gaining Web-based access to a full suite of reports and comparative data, such as plan migration and enrollment statistics, enabling them to become a more strategic partner to their customers.
Interested resellers will be carefully qualified by Workscape to ensure that brokers meet the Company's stringent channel program requirements. Parties interested in learning more about the Workscape Broker Alliance Program should contact David Shultz at 508-861-3054.
