ADP clearly leads in subservice organization disclosure – they name and describe controls at third-party print vendors and tax payment processors, which is a frequent audit request. ✅ Highly recommended for any organization subject to a financial audit (SOX, SOC 1, or internal controls review). ✅ Suitable for both large enterprises (customized reports available for HCM bundles) and SMBs using ADP RUN or Workforce Now. ⚠️ Note: If you only need security/availability controls (not financial reporting), request ADP’s SOC 2 Type 2 report instead – that covers trust services criteria (security, availability, confidentiality).
