Our unique process of implementing your benefits program on the Empyrean platform. It’s efficient, effective, and dare we say, fun!?

When you decide to make a change to your benefits administration solution, your new system implementation is the critical first step to your success. That’s why we strive to create the best experience possible for you, your team, and your benefit partners. Your ‘Day One’ team is named and integrated during the sales process, ensuring a seamless transition from winning your business to earning your trust.

Requirements

We take in all of your plan information and use it to create a Business Requirements Document (BRD), then review with you in a series of workshops.

System Setup

There’s no coding required for our platform, and we’re able to apply the BRD directly into your instance. We will even own and manage all interface testing, including all vendor coordination.

Testing & Configuration

We like to measure twice, and cut once! Team members test data integrity at every step, there is a 100% audit of incoming data to requirements, and our acceptance testing includes 100% of the population.

Deployment

This is a well-orchestrated event, planned months in advance, so there are no surprises at launch. You’ll be provided an HR Administrator guide and training, along with a change management plan and communications for all audiences.
