HEWITT ASSOCIATES ATTEMPTING TO BE DIFFERENT IN A CROWD
INTRODUCTION
Hewitt Associates was an American provider of Human capital and Management consulting services to help companies manage their total HR and employee costs, enhance HR services, and improve their workforces. It operates 500 offices in 120 countries and had about 29,000 employees providing consulting, outsourcing, and insurance brokerage services.
HISTORY• On October 1, 1940 Ted Hewitt formed Edwin Shields Hewitt and Associates
as an insurance brokerage specializing in financial planning for business executives. The first client was Parker Pens. Hewitt has historically maintains a client retention rate of 95%+ . Company’s first regional office was opened in Minneapolis, Minnesota , in 1959 followed by expansion into Toronto, Canada, in 1974. Hewitt first office overseas opened in 1985. In 2002 , the company went to public on the New York Stock Exchange, selling 11.15 million shares to the public , and the stock is part of the Russell 2000 index. In June 2006 longtime Chairman and CEO Dale Gifford announced his resignation. Russ Fradin joined Hewitt as CEO and Chairman of the board beginning September 5, 2006. This was the first time Hewitt hired an external CEO.
GROWTH STRATEGY
• Prior to 2000, most of Hewitt's growth was organic. Acquisitions of and joint ventures with very small boutique firms, primarily defined benefit plan actuaries and human resources consultancies, were typical. In 2000, Hewitt began growing through larger mergers and acquisitions. The first of these was the announcement, in late 2000, of a plan to integrate its UK and Ireland business with Bacon & Woodrow, a leading retirement and financial management consultancy in the UK.
• In June 2003, Hewitt announced the completion of the acquisition of Northern Trust Retirement Consulting, L.L.C., expanding its portfolio of outsourcing clients. Later in 2003, Hewitt acquired Cyborg Worldwide, Inc., expanding outsourcing capabilities to include payroll services.
• On October 1, 2004, Hewitt completed the acquisition of Irvine, CA - based Exult Inc., a company specializing in Human Resources Business Process Outsourcing or HR BPO. This move was to ensure Hewitt would remain competitive within the HR Consulting and Outsourcing space, in which HR-BPO was a rapidly growing area.
• As of early 2010, Hewitt had approximately 2,600 clients, making it the world's largest provider of multi-service HR business process outsourcing (BPO), and it claimed to be the only firm fully integrated HR outsourcing and HR consulting. Hewitt's clients included over half the Fortune 500 and a third of the Fortune Global 500. Hewitt had 86 offices in 37 countries and employed over 27,000 employees.

PROBLEMS IN 2006
• HR – BPO revenues declined by 19% year over year in fiscal 2006 significantly impacted the termination of its Bank Of America contract.
• The decline was attributed to taking on too many contracts ( Thus not properly vetting and modeling them ), and issues with payroll, recruiting, and global contracts.
• Even the average revenue per participant in the BPO business reduced by 21.4% suggesting that there has been a major pricing pressure in the industry.
• Hewitt’s consulting business was also experiencing recent margin pressures due to increased incentive compensation costs resulting from unfavorable trends in consultant turnover.
THE KEY TRENDS OF FINANCIALS OF HEWITT Clearly there has been pressure on the firms margin in the last few years. This is due to the following reasons.
• Consulting business is facing pressure due to rising attrition, and burgeoning salaries of the consultant.
• BPO business is facing pressure on pricing front, as the clients, are not accepting price hikes, and are unable to recognize the differentiation offered by Hewitt.
Burgeoning consulting salaries
Hard to crack BPO clients
