Mercer L.L.C. said on Wednesday that it has partnered with Thomsons Online Benefits to expand their respective offerings to multinationals looking to manage their global benefits programs.
Mercer will provide global employee benefits brokerage and consulting to multinationals while Thomsons will provide streamlined administration, automation and enhanced communication of benefit plans through its global employee benefits software as a service platform called Darwin, Mercer said in a statement.
This alliance between Mercer and Thomsons aims to address the difficulties that companies operating globally face managing their global employee benefits in line with local legislation and workforce expectations, according to the statement.
We’ve formed this alliance with Thomsons given its strength in benefits technology innovation and their ability to scale benefits delivery globally while taking account of local market nuances. We expect the relationship to evolve over time with new offerings announced in the future. Many of these will center on robust and comprehensive data analytics — financial, vendor and design data from Mercer coupled with engagement and workforce data from Darwin. Our intention is to bring clients powerful and unique insights to help them make the most of their benefits,” Graham Pearce, head of Mercer’s international consulting group, said in the statement.
