HighRoads is
transforming how human resources (HR) teams manage programs and
suppliers, by giving customers
the information
required to drive innovative benefits packages, at the right price. Its
longtime customer, Hannaford Supermarkets, has won a Benefits &
Compensation Superstar award, by exemplifying how benefit program
cost and quality are not necessary trade-offs.
This year HighRoads also won in the solution provider category for its
technology-based approach to proactively managing HR vendor
performance, meeting benefit professionals’
ever-growing need for ways to drive better pricing, service and
efficiency.
The fifth annual award, sponsored by Benefits & Compensation
Solutions Magazine, celebrates HR professionals who inspire the HR
industry to deliver pioneering benefits and attractive compensation
packages – even as costs rise, employees
demand more and resources shrink. This is the third year in a row that a
HighRoads customer has won the large-employer category.
“Benefit teams have an incredibly daunting
role: they’re responsible for programs that
attract and retain a quality workforce while being pressured to control
the number-one corporate cost item,” said Paul
Daoust, chairman and CEO of HighRoads. “We
applaud Hannaford’s pioneering work, and are
proud to be their partner.”
HighRoads helps employers achieve new levels of efficiency and control
in critical areas including vendor performance management, plan
procurement and renewals and summary plan description (SPD) management.
HighRoads’ managed service centralizes HR
content – including plan designs, pricing
models, supplier performance guarantees, SPDs and contracts –
and makes it useful across the gamut of annual activities.
