SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (SSNC) has announced the extension of its long-standing partnership with the Fire and Emergency Services Superannuation Fund (FES Super) through a new long-term agreement. This strategic renewal underlines SS&C's continued influence and growth within the Australian superannuation sector, as it builds on several recent victories in the region.
FES Super utilizes SS&C's Bluedoor, a cloud-hosted registry platform, to streamline its administration needs. This platform facilitates real-time automation and straight-through processing, optimizing operations and enhancing the experience for fund members. Additionally, SS&C provides essential digital and reporting services to FES Super, further solidifying its support role.
“Our top priority is acting in the best interests of our members,” noted Adrian Rutter, Fund Secretary at FES Super. The partnership allows FES Super to leverage Bluedoor's integration capabilities and cloud-native services, providing a modern and high-quality user experience to its members.
The Bluedoor technology is part of SS&C Global Investor & Distribution Solutions (GIDS) and underpins digital operations across superannuation products, including defined contribution, defined benefit, and pension schemes. The renewal of this partnership is a testimony to the robust relationship between SS&C and FES Super, which has strengthened over nearly 15 years of collaboration.
This announcement coincides with SS&C's recent client acquisitions and contract renewals across Australia's superannuation and wealth sectors, demonstrating a rising demand for its cloud-based solutions. With super funds under increasing pressure to modernize efficiently, SS&C positions itself as the strategic partner of choice for funds aiming to achieve operational efficiency and member-centric innovation.
