Spokesperson, Penad Pension Services Limited
“We believe simpler administration opens the door to pensions and benefits for more people. At Penad, we bring technology and hands-on expertise together to help make that happen”
Matthew Price, Penad Pension Services Limited
Four decades on, Penad’s long game is paying off
Penad Pension Services Limited has been named as BPM’s 5-Star Technology Award winner for the second consecutive year, a recognition that benchmarks entries on detailed information, true innovation, and proven success.
The company ties the win to a strategy it has followed since it opened its doors in 1983: build the technology and the third-party pension administration expertise in the same house and let four decades of practice do the rest.
Some of Penad’s client relationships now stretch beyond 35 years, reflecting a commitment that extends well beyond implementation. For Penad, go-live marks the beginning of an ongoing partnership: helping clients manage day-to-day operations more efficiently, adapt as their needs evolve, and work through challenges together. Its combination of proprietary technology and hands-on administration experience keeps that support grounded in the realities clients face. Internally, the company credits that longevity to a deliberately flat organizational structure, designed to keep decisions close to the people doing the work rather than running them through layers of management.
President and CEO Matthew Price sets the strategic direction, while Marina Yeoman, vice president of service delivery, Beth Waller, vice president of strategic consulting, Hannah Jailall, director of client relationships, and Anzhela Nochovna, director of system development, lead the operational side of the business.
Penad sums up its working culture in two words – Solution Ready – a mindset that applies as much to staff empowerment as to client problem-solving, and one it credits with keeping its workforce engaged across a business that now spans Canada and international markets.
Inside PX3000
PX3000 has long brought pension, group benefits, and disability administration together in one unified, modular platform. Over the past two years, Penad has built on that established foundation, expanding functionality, strengthening integration, and enhancing security to help clients simplify administration and respond to changing needs.
This covers the full member journey, from enrollment through retirement, and supports defined benefit, defined contribution, hybrid, and multi-employer plans alongside benefits administration software functions like group life and health administration. Clients onboarding the platform move through a structured process of data migration, reconciliation, testing, and training, support the company says continues well beyond go-live.
Penad is also investing in how AI can strengthen quality assurance and streamline complex processing, with appropriate human oversight. Its strength lies in bringing software development and hands-on administration expertise together, ensuring innovation is informed by practical experience and focused on meaningful improvements for clients and their members.
The next chapter
Penad’s next stretch of work centres on expanding PX3000’s unified capabilities and giving plan members more direct, self-service access to their own information, alongside continued, measured use of AI and automation.
The company’s broader ambition is to help make pensions and benefits accessible to more people by making administration more efficient. By simplifying processes and reducing administrative barriers, it aims to support wider coverage and contribute to retirement security for all. That purpose guides its continued investment in technology and the long-term client partnerships that will shape its next chapter.
For a company that measures success in decades, Penad’s next chapter builds on the trust earned through client partnerships spanning more than 35 years, with a continued commitment to advancing its technology and helping clients meet the challenges ahead.
