Missouri LAGERS Sees High Impact from Sagitec Solutions? Neospin? Employer Web Portal
Saint Paul, MN (PRWEB) October 7, 2010
The Missouri Local Government Employees Retirement System (LAGERS) launched a new Employer Web Portal using Sagitec Solution’s Neospin™ pension administration framework. This key phase of LAGERS’ initiative to replace their entire pension administration solution with Neospin™ was implemented ahead of schedule and is showing immediate and measurable benefits to LAGERS and employers alike.
The successful adoption of the portal by the employer pilot group allowed LAGERS to accelerate the implementation of remaining employers, who immediately benefit from faster and more accurate contribution payments, new member enrollments, and account adjustments. For LAGERS, the portal improves wage and service reporting by reducing errors and correction time frames. It enables them to accept electronic payment transactions initiated from employers, which was not possible with the legacy system.
In short, the employer web portal greatly enhances LAGERS’ ability to support the 605 local subdivisions they serve through the portal’s customer service facility.
The project continues with implementation of benefit estimate, retirement application, and benefit payment functions. A feature-rich Member Web Portal will cap off the project in March 2012.
“Sagitec is excited and proud to see our solution have such an impact at LAGERS,” said Rod Sheppard, Sagitec Senior Partner. “We build software with purpose, and this implementation is a great example of the business value that Neospin™ brings to our customers. Success involves much more than just good technology. In the end, it’s the return on investment that counts.”
Jay Masci, President of Provaliant Retirement (which provides LAGERS with project management and oversight services) noted, “The implementation of the EWP has gone exceptionally well. Sagitec’s approach set new bench marks for best practice standards.”
“What is of vital importance to LAGERS is keeping this project on time and within budget while still meeting our business objectives,” said Bill Schwartz, LAGERS executive secretary. “I know this is not easy, but thanks to our first-rate team here—with my staff, Sagitec and Provaliant—the results to date have been excellent. I am looking forward to more of the same as we go forward.”
Sagitec Solutions, LLC is headquartered in the Twin Cities, MN. They have additional domestic offices in Denver and Topeka, KS, and international offices in Pune and Chennai, India. They have been in business since 2004, and have a resume that includes public pension funds for the states of Kansas, Colorado, North Dakota, California, Virginia, Missouri, and Massachusetts.

Craigslist 101: Part Three
Craigslist 101: Part Three
Welcome to the third part of my Craigslist 101 series. Last time, we covered how to reply an ad on Craigslist, and how to use the Craigslist RSS feed. Now that we’ve covered the basics, we’re going to delve a little deeper into Craigslist, and talk about flagging, target audience, and category listings.
<!–more–>
Flagging If you’ve spent any time on Craigslist lately, you may have noticed the Please flag with care” box in the top right hand corner of all posts. If you take a closer look at the box, you’ll see four categories: miscategorized, prohibited, spam/overpost, and best of craigslist. What happens when a post is flagged? Craigslist tracks the number of negative flags each post receives; if there’s enough negative feedback, the post is removed. Note that each user’s flagging is only counted once, i.e. even if you really dislike that ad for a work-at-home pyramid scheme, flagging it over and over won’t do any good unless other users flag it as well. Flagging may not seem like much at first, but it’s one of the reasons Craigslist is so clever – by giving users the power to determine which posts are important and which are spam or abuse, Craigslist is not only making its consumers feel wanted and appreciated, but taking advantage of their manpower.
So how do you avoid having your post flagged as miscategorized, prohibited, or spam? A few simple guidelines:
→ Why are you posting this ad? Is it a serious ad, or are you “just testing the waters”? If you’re in the latter group, and you annoy enough Craigslist users, it won’t take long for them to start flagging your posts for removal.
→ Does your ad comply with the Craigslist rules for posting, or is a prohibited category? Not sure? Check the conduct section of the Craigslist terms of use. (Tip: selling something? Check out the list of prohibited goods and services.)
→ Who’s your target audience? What category should you list in? If you’re selling a car, do you really want to post under “yard sales”?
→ Do you really need to post to more than one area? Multiple posts and overposting are often flagged as spam, and result in the removal of a post. Remember: you don’t need to cross post to several regions, as your ad is already included in the general area search.
Need more help with posting? Check out our earlier Craigslist 101 article, how to post an ad to Craigslist. Already had your post flagged? Visit the flag help forum to get help working out why. Target audience & category listings We’re going to tackle these next two topics together, given the inextricable nature of their relationship. Working out who your target audience is seems like common sense to anyone who’s posted enough classifieds. And yet, it’s a step that’s often skipped – many small advertisers figure that a) everyone will be interested in their product or b) their target audience is immediately obvious, making keyword planning and research irrelevant. But, for Craigslist, a site where multiple posting can result in ad removal, knowing your target audience and, perhaps more importantly, their interests, is essential. First, make up a list of keywords to describe your audience and their interests. For more on how to do this, take a look at my recent article, Using Newspaper Styling to Make Your Ad Stand Out for more. So now that you know who your audience is, you have to post your ad to a category. The upper level categories – services, housing, job, and for sale – are pretty self-explanatory. But what about the deeper category postings? Should you post your piano in “musical instruments” or “furniture”? What about a personal training position? Does it belong in “medical/health” or “salon/spa/fitness”? The answer varies, because people vary. In Denver, a piano might be considered furniture, while in Boston it might be better off listed as a musical instrument. The key to putting your ad in the right category is research. Spend some time looking through possible categories, noting down who posts what where. Are the majority personal training jobs listed under “salon/spa/fitness”? If so, that’s probably your best bet. Remember, posting to more than one category on Craigslist is a quick and easy way to get flagged, so always think before you post. Next time: why you should search outside of your region, and a few helpful Craigslist tools.

Nicknamed “The Mile High City,” Denver is the capital and most populous city in Colorado. It is known for its elevation above sea level, as it is located only about fifteen miles from the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. This location contributes largely to the Denver economy. Being the largest city for six hundred miles and being positioned approximately halfway between the West Coast and the major Midwestern cities of Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland, Denver is a logical stop for transport and storage of goods. The nearby Rocky Mountains provide rich mining resources.
This rich and varied economic climate combines with the natural beauty of the surrounding environment to make Denver a great place to live. For those looking to make a move there, one of the first necessary steps is to land a job, and good place to begin the search is on Craigslist.
In case you are not familiar, Craigslist is a network of site for communities throughout the United States and around the globe. Initially, it was founded as a resource for the San Francisco Bay Area in 1995. By 2006, there was a Craigslist site representing each of 450 cities worldwide. With a few exceptions, advertising on Craigslist is free, and postings can be placed in myriad sections, all organized into major categories.
On Craigslist, getting started looking for a job is simple. First, simply visit http://denver.craigslist.org. Next, check out the myriad categories in the “jobs” column: everything from accounting & finance to writing & editing and beyond! Whether you are looking for work as a corporate accountant, short order cook, or software engineer, you can find postings here. You may also notice a job category labeled “ETC,” where jobs that are less traditional or that don’t readily fit into the other categories are often posted. Some of the jobs in the ETC category include at-home Internet-based work, such as reading e-mail advertising. Other jobs listed here include delivery drivers, cleaning services, and campaign activists. There is even a category specifically for part time jobs, directed at those not looking for a full time gig.
And speaking of gigs, that’s another section on Craigslist! Located job below the jobs column, the gigs section offers postings looking for people to help with one-time jobs in a variety of fields, such as creative, talent, writing and labor. Here you can find a variety of quick jobs of all types. You can get paid to help someone move next Saturday, or submit a short story for publication in a magazine. Freelancers, this is the section for you!
The final Craigslist section of interest to the job hunter is the “resumes” section. Here, job seekers can post their resumes for browsing by potential employers. This allows you to market your own skills, and have potential employers come to you! No need to send out dozens of resumes and wonder which people are actually interested, just post one and wait for the offers to come in.
The geography of Denver not only makes for beautiful surroundings, but also an opportunistically bustling economy. By using Craigslist before your move to Denver, you can take advantage of both.
