ULTRALINK TO SPEAK AT HRTECH 2003 CONFERENCE
Panel Presentation, Including American Airlines* and CompLink, to Focus on American’s Success in Offloading Its Costly, Labor-Intensive Benefits Administration Functions
COSTA MESA, Calif., April 08, 2003 – UltraLink, a full-service provider of outsourced employee benefits administration, today announced that it will be participating in the presentation of a case study with its client, American Airlines, at this year’s HRtech 2003 Conference, April 9-11 at the Sheraton Chicago Hotel and Towers.
The prestigious panel of presenters include: Virginia Nisbet, Director of Health Care Strategies for American Airlines; J. Stephen Ashley, Vice President of Consulting for UltraLink; and Todd Levridge, Senior Vice President of Sales for CompLink, an UltraLink partner and COBRA services provider for American.
The presentation will highlight American’s use of both UltraLink’s and CompLink’s benefits administration outsourcing services to save time and money and thereby allow American to focus its internal resources on their core competencies. Essentially, as economic pressure increased in the mid 1990’s, American looked for controlled, strategic ways to manage their rising HR costs. To meet its needs, American hired UltraLink to provide procurement and vendor management services and CompLink to administer its COBRA activities. Working with these partners, American has streamlined its administrative processes, increased its data integrity, realized significant cost savings and implemented practical steps towards aligning its objectives with strategic business goals.
“We’re excited to share our client experience at the conference, as we believe it succinctly demonstrates the power of outsourcing benefits administration,” said Ashley. “Presentation attendees will not only learn about the benefits gleaned by American in terms of cost savings and efficiency gains but also how the airline’s outsourcing decisions increased employee satisfaction.”
The American Airlines panel discussion at HRtech is scheduled for Friday, April 11 from 3:20-4:20 p.m. Conference attendees can also visit UltraLink during exhibition hours at Booth #211.
