Lynn, Mass. Chooses ADP for Payroll and HR Services

ADP Continues Growth and Momentum in Public Sector with New Client and Leadership Appointment

Roseland, N.J. – June 11, 2007 – ADP® National Account Services, part of the Employer Services Division, a leading provider of payroll, benefits and human resources (HR) services, today announced ADP has been selected by the City of Lynn, MA to provide the municipality with a full range of HR, payroll, tax services and garnishments.

The City of Lynn, which employs more than 3,300 employees, was looking for a single, integrated solution that it could use to standardize administrative processes, recordkeeping and reporting across its entire workforce.  Previously, the City was managing and maintaining multiple, legacy databases and networks in the City’s nine processing centers.  With the ADP solution now in place, the City is delivering a streamlined and more efficient payroll and HR experience to all its employees.

“We signed on with ADP to unify our operations under one system,” said Richard Fortucci, Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, City of Lynn.  “In addition, we wanted a solution to safeguard our data in case of disaster.  With ADP, we have peace of mind knowing that our irreplaceable records are disaster proof, and can be retrieved from outside of the city, from any computer that has Internet access.”

The partnership exemplifies the valuable role that service providers play in helping public sector organizations modernize and improve their HR operations. A recent study conducted by the International Public Management Association for Human Resources (IPMA-HR) and advisory firm EquaTerra found that 67 percent of the public sector organizations that outsourced did so because they felt it was the best overall option for transforming their HR services.  As importantly, the study found that 94 percent of the organizations in the study that have outsourced HR functions were very satisfied with the results

To support the growing demand for ADP services in this market, ADP has recently named Mike Tuccori as the Division Vice President of Sales for the public sector.  Tuccori is a 21-year veteran with ADP, with a strong track record of success in building relationships and delivering solutions that benefit HR and payroll organizations.

“ADP’s solutions for the public sector continue to be very well received by the marketplace, as evidenced by our exciting new partnership with the City of Lynn,” said Regina Lee, President, ADP National Account Services.  “ADP is committed to providing public sector organizations with flexible, easy-to-use solutions that allow them to transform their HR and payroll operations with a service model that closely compliments their budgetary and organizational goals.”

ADP National Account Services is the business unit of ADP that provides payroll, HR and benefit services to organizations with more than 1,000 employees.  For more information, please visit www.nas.adp.com.
