ADP Streamline, a multinational provider of outsourced payroll and HR services solutions, has selected Sage VIP Payroll & HR as its channel and service partner for Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria and Botswana. This extends an existing relationship between the companies for the South African market into other parts of the continent.
ADP Streamline is part of Automatic Data Processing (ADP), one of the world’s largest providers of business processing and cloud-based solutions to employers and automotive dealerships around the world. The company serves a range of clients with operations in multiple countries with its cloud and outsourcing solutions.
Where it has no direct presence of its own, ADP Streamline appoints partners such as Sage VIP to provide services to its clients as a subcontractor. ADP Streamline selected Sage VIP Payroll & HR as its partner for South Africa in 2008, and has decided to extend the agreement into other territories based on Sage VIP’s performance during this time.
Sage VIP will provide ADP Streamline’s customers in these key African territories with a set of processes, systems, services and tools and tools that are consistent with those in their other markets and that also adhere to country-specific laws and regulations.
Says Marina Nolte, national outsourcing manager at Sage VIP: “We’re excited by this new partnership, not only because of the business opportunities it brings, but also because it is a strong endorsement of our systems and processes.
“Considering that over 80% of Fortune 500 companies use at least one of the ADP group’s services, the company is extremely rigorous in auditing, selecting and governing client relationships. The ADP Streamline stamp of approval shows that we follow the very best practices in our business and that we can provide a service that meets the toughest regulatory demands.”
Security and information governance are especially important to ADP Streamline, which carefully appraised the infrastructure and security supporting Sage VIP’s hosted payroll and employee self-service solution. The company also ensured that its multi-country clients will receive a level of service that matches the one that ADP Streamline offers through its own offices in other territories.
