About ADP

ADP is one of the world's largest providers of human resources, benefits, and payroll solutions. For their massive internal organization of nearly 60,000 employees, maintaining a world-class cybersecurity posture is not just a priority, but a business imperative.

The Challenge

ADP’s commitment to a zero-trust security model was being undermined by vendor sprawl. A complex ecosystem of overlapping cybersecurity tools and subscriptions created redundant spending, administrative inefficiency, and a fragmented view of their security posture. They needed a strategic partner to cut through the noise, rationalize their technology stack, and define the most cost-effective path to achieving their security goals.

The Solution

Infused Innovations conducted a comprehensive strategic assessment. We performed a detailed feature comparison of all existing vendor offerings and built a robust Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) model. This analysis provided ADP with a clear, data-backed understanding of their current spending and the potential savings of consolidation. Based on these findings, we delivered a strategic roadmap that aligned to their specific security and governance requirements.

The Results

The engagement provided ADP with the strategic clarity needed to move forward confidently. Our analysis identified significant opportunities for vendor consolidation, leading to substantial monthly savings and a more streamlined, manageable security ecosystem. ADP now has a clear, financially sound roadmap to achieve its zero-trust objectives, allowing them to reinvest savings back into the business while strengthening their overall security posture.
