What is the "Right" HR and Payroll Solution for a Multinational Organization

HR and Payroll are essential administrative functions for every multinational organization. However, because each multinational operates so differently, that is where the universal similarities end.

Some organizations need centralized control of data that can be shared across countries and continents.  Others have to support small populations of employees concentrated in a few or many countries around the globe.  Still others are decentralized, focused primarily on local requirements. 

The "right" solution for global organizations is the one that provides you with a comprehensive view - and command - of company resources, no matter where they may be.  It gives you the power to access consolidated, intelligent information at country, regional, and global levels - and influence strategic decision-making in a dynamic operational environment.  Most importantly, perhaps, it helps to align HR goals with the overall goals of your business.

By partnering with the experts at ADP, you can cost effectively achieve that alignment, covering all the key bases from comprehensive data management and compliance to flexible delivery.

ADP's Services

ADP is a service company.  We do not aspire to be a software firm or a systems integrator.  Our goal has always been to provide service-based solutions to multinational corporations that free them from the burdens and risks associated with administering their Payroll and HR functions.  

We are unique in providing a "multi-layer" set of solutions to multinational companies (local, regional, and global), with a client-centric delivery model that configures our services to meet your needs in a flexible and selective service delivery structure.  

Options provided by ADP match the needs of your organization and are configured to support your requirements in different locales wherever you have employees.  Choose processing services for HR and Payroll transactions; managed services (where ADP operates your HR and Payroll departments); and a comprehensive outsourcing solution (where ADP takes responsibility for each function and directly responds to inquiries from your employees).  You can shape the solutions you need by country to meet your employee support plan with precision and efficiency. 

ADP's multinational model comprehensively addresses the People, Process, and Technology requirements inherently essential for a successful business partnership with other global companies.

Our People

ADP recognizes that our partners require consistent, accountable, and empowered counterparts to ensure a successful global engagement.  Toward that end, ADP created multinational sales forces in the Americas; Europe, the Middle East, and Africa; and the Asia-Pacific region, and moved our most senior and consultative associates into these markets. We made this group "product-agnostic" - focusing on the best combination of products, services, and best practices to provide long-term solutions that best meet client requirements.
