Case Study: Wesleyan University achieves reliable employment tax compliance and streamlined W-2 management with ADP SmartCompliance

Wesleyan University - Customer Case Study

Wesleyan University, a private liberal arts college in Middletown, CT (founded 1831), serves about 3,000 undergraduates and 200 graduates and processes payroll for roughly 3,800–4,000 employees. The payroll team relied on paper‑based processes and faced frequent IRS and state tax notices, creating compliance risk and a heavy administrative burden.

By implementing ADP SmartCompliance Employment Tax and W-2 Management (integrated with Oracle PeopleSoft) Wesleyan automated tax‑notice handling, simplified W-2C exports, and gained robust reporting and timely updates, supported by a dedicated ADP account manager. The result was fewer tax notices, streamlined processing, improved compliance, and greater confidence and efficiency in payroll operations.
