Mercer and Equus Software Form Alliance to Help Employers Better Manage Expatriate Assignments

Mercer, a global leader in human resource consulting, and Equus Software, a leader in state-of-the-art technology solutions, are working together to implement AssignmentProTM for Mercer’s clients. AssignmentPro is an international assignment management software system that uses best-in-class technology to streamline expatriate administration.

AssignmentPro provides end-to-end automation to effectively manage all aspects of international assignments. The system houses all information in a single, easy-to-use format that eliminates the need to outsource expatriate administration. Additionally, it coordinates multiple stakeholders, both in the host and home countries, simplifying process management.

“Adding AssignmentPro to our global mobility offerings enables us to provide organizations with a single tool for more effectively managing international assignments,” said Barb Marder, Global Mobility Commercial Leader for Mercer. “We scanned the market for the best and most cost-effective international assignment software on the market and believe AssignmentPro is that software. Not only does this tool simplify compensation and payroll reporting, it automates assignment tracking, expense management and workflow communications, resulting in significant administrative cost savings.”

“Mercer is recognized as one of the leading HR and benefits consultants in the world, and we are pleased to work with them to bring added value to Mercer’s clients,” said Mark Thomas, CEO of Equus Software. “We believe Mercer’s clients will benefit significantly from a combined Mercer/Equus Software team. The combination of Mercer’s knowledge and experience in global mobility consulting with AssignmentPro’s software capabilities for simplifying all aspects of expatriate administration is very powerful.”

AssignmentPro makes managing the complexities of international assignments – from compensation and payroll reporting to expense management and pay tracking – easy and efficient. (See Figures 1 and 2.)

Some of AssignmentPro’s key features include:

Easy integration with many HRIS platforms allowing for complete automation of payroll and email systems as well as employee communications.
The ability to manage and store documents, such as contracts, securely in a single database.
Around-the-clock communication with assignees, suppliers and HR staff worldwide via web portals.
The ability to manage business processes via an automated workflow system.
