Service Enables Plan Sponsors to Evaluate Health of Their Organization`s 401(k) DALLAS--(Business Wire)-- Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (NYSE: ACS) is introducing Healthy 401(k) Plan Analytics, a comprehensive software tool that enables plan sponsors to evaluate the health of their organization`s 401(k) plan and their employees` retirement readiness by tracking and analyzing participant behavior and trends. ACS` Healthy 401(k) Plan Analytics is a new service addition to its defined contribution management solution, which addresses the complex plan challenges HR managers face, from cost to quality to operational to employee engagement. The tool is easy-to-use, offering access to 401(k) data and infinite reporting possibilities, enabling ACS and its clients to readily draw conclusions about company plans and participants. "Our new analytics service is an extension of our commitment to provide innovative defined contribution/401(k) management," said Rohail Khan, executive managing director of the ACS Total Benefits Outsourcing business. "In today`s economic environment, plan sponsors are concerned about the overall health of their plans and want to ensure their participants have the opportunity to retire more comfortably. This new innovation is in line with our commitment to drive analytical insights that help our clients generate outcomes aligned to their overall people strategies." ACS` Healthy 401(k) Plan Analytics enables plan sponsors to view aggregate data, including participant rates of return, balance, investment elections and activity in all funds, by any participant sub-set such as location, division, or compensation level. This participant group and plan level view enables HR managers to analyze trends and determine the retirement readiness of their participants, and address participant groups accordingly. In addition, plan sponsors can analyze the rates of return of various plan investments for multiple time periods, allowing them to determine the percentage of the plan invested in those funds and how they compare to benchmarks. "ACS` analytical tool is highly intuitive and easy-to-use, giving us the ability to analyze any plan participant information we can possibly imagine for any combination of populations," said Spencer H. Stooksbury, director of Corporate Benefits, Great American Insurance Group. "You can analyze everything from participants` personal rates of return to the adequacy of savings for retirement. The tool provides everything a plan sponsor needs to determine if their plan is serving participants well. The flexibility and depth of reporting offers us unparalleled analysis that leads to better plan decisions, which is the type of service offering we`ve come to expect from ACS."
