Case Study: ArcBest achieves automated ACA compliance and avoids IRS penalties with Sovos ACA Reporting

Arcbest’s Success Using The Sovos ACA Solution Demonstrates The Benefits Of Automating Compliance

ArcBest, a multibillion-dollar transportation and logistics company with about 13,000 workers (roughly 4,000 directly employed), faced complex Affordable Care Act (ACA) reporting requirements that overwhelmed its benefits and IT teams. After spending more than 400 hours preparing 1095 forms and failing to get the IRS to accept their transmittal, ArcBest engaged Sovos and selected the Sovos ACA Reporting solution to avoid missed deadlines and potential financial penalties.

Sovos completed the ACA transmittal off-site, collaborated with ArcBest’s HR and benefits staff, and handled the IRS reporting requirements, enabling ArcBest to meet filing deadlines and avoid penalties. As a result of Sovos’ ACA solution, ArcBest’s IT burden was significantly reduced (recovering over 400 hours), compliance was achieved on time, and the company gained a responsive, experienced partner for ongoing reporting needs.
