CASE STUDY
Admin market review for a major super fund
Kyudo was engaged by one of Australia’s largest superannuation funds. The client is an industry fund whose administration is outsourced to a third party. The fund was experiencing poor quality service from its administrator and was uncertain if appointing an alternative provider could improve this situation.
The executive team also required an understanding of contemporary operating models to assist with their strategic planning.

The problem
The executive and operational teams did not have a current knowledge of administration technologies, service providers, costs to serve and changes to operating models that could be relevant to them. Without this knowledge, strategic planning had stalled.
Our solution
The Kyudo team has decades of experience working with administration technology and services vendors. Our capability includes review and design of contemporary operating models.
Using this knowledge, Kyudo reviewed the market and prepared a comprehensive report for the fund’s teams to review. Our team then facilitated a half-day workshop with the executive team and key stakeholders to educate them on key vendors, operating models and transition options.
Armed with this knowledge, the fund is now prepared for renegotiation of its contract with the incumbent – putting them in a powerful negotiating position.
Our market knowledge, independence and depth of experience gives our clients peace of mind and certainty.
Sustainable growth is our goal. We help deliver this for our clients by designing solutions that reduce risk and let them sleep well at night.
