ROSELAND, N.J., Oct. 14,
2014 /PRNewswire/ -- ADP®, a leading global
provider of Human Capital Management (HCM) solutions, today
announced that U.S. Security Associates®, a leading
security firm with nearly 50,000 employees across the United States, has gone live with an HCM
solution from ADP.
U.S. Security Associates operates 160 local offices in
the United States and has
experience and on-the-ground resources in 120 countries. The
company provides its clients with security professionals who bring
diverse expertise and insight, ranging from entry-level officers to
some of the security industry's top talent from the fields of law
enforcement, military and corporate security.
The company chose ADP to deliver payroll, HR, and tax credit
services.
"We needed a partner who gave us confidence that our people
would get paid correctly and on time – and in compliance with the
many local laws and regulations that impact our business," says
Karl J. Scott, Chief Financial
Officer of U.S. Security Associates. "As one of the largest
private security companies in the United
States, we also needed a platform that could support organic
growth and the ability to expand into new business partnerships
quickly. We found that with ADP and are delighted with the
successful implementation that was delivered by ADP and U.S.
Security Associates, working together."
Mark Benjamin, President of
Global Enterprise Solutions at ADP, says the company is honored to
be entrusted with providing Human Capital Management technology and
service expertise for personnel who provide critical security
services.
"We're pleased that a recognized leader in such an important
field has chosen ADP for these complex mission-critical
capabilities. By partnering with ADP, U.S. Security
Associates now is able to focus on successfully running its
business and ensuring that their people can focus on client safety
rather than on payroll anxieties," said Benjamin. "For a
client like U.S. Security Associates, with unique needs to enable
it to lead in its industry, software isn't enough – there's a
tremendous amount of service and expertise that we were delighted
to share in close collaboration with them. We're gratified,
once again, by the confidence a major company like U.S. Security
Associates has placed in the people of ADP."
After rapid growth in recent years, U.S. Security Associates now
employs nearly 50,000 people, a number expected to grow.
Those swelling numbers warranted the integrated functionality
that ADP's Human Capital Management platform offers, said
Becky McAvoy, Director of Payroll
for U.S. Security Associates.
"Because we operate in so many states, we needed a company
strong in payroll and tax compliance," she said. "We also
wanted audit control over HR demographic data and, most important,
we wanted to pay our employees promptly and accurately. With an
excellent track record in each of these key areas, ADP
distinguished itself as the best choice."
McAvoy said that the success of the complex implementation
underscored the advantages of having assigned people from ADP
working side by side with U.S. Security Associates.
"Our client partners were with us every step of the way," McAvoy
said. "They knew and understood our business, particularly in
the critical areas of compliance and stability."
Through it all, McAvoy says the team never lost sight of what
was most important.
"Because our clients depend on the expertise of our security
personnel, they are the most important part of our business," she
said. "ADP will help us keep our focus on the front lines and
maintain strong customer service delivery as we continue to
grow."
