Steve Lunseth, CEOAatrix is constantly climbing up the ladder under the leadership of Steve Lunseth, who recognized the inevitable movement to automated forms and electronic filing more than 25 years ago. From the very beginning, he focused on proprietary software tools to facilitate what he knew was going to be a dynamic environment. The patented process Aatrix created in the 90s has been the backbone of the company’s ability to grow and change as new requirements and technologies present themselves.
A Comprehensive and Easy E-Filing Process
Aatrix offers one process for any unemployment, wage withholding, new hire report, or payment regardless of the government agency filing requirements. A single comprehensive process completes all W-2/1099/1095 filings in a fraction of the time it takes to complete in-house. Aatrix prints and mails employee/recipient copies, hosts employee W-2s/1099s/1095s online for instant access from anywhere, files W-2/W3s, 1094/1095s, and 1099s/1096s for the federal government, and completes all state filings including reconciliation forms required. In fact, Aatrix’s W2 Preparer helps print an estimated 30 million W2s for businesses in the U.S. Clients can easily track all filings and payments and view confirmations and administer all agency requirements, filing statuses, and filing history under one roof with its website efile.aatrix.com. For any assistance required during eFiling to any federal or state agency, clients can simply call a single support group. “Aatrix simplifies filing by providing a single process—one set of credentials instead of one for each agency, one admin site to manage all filings, confirmations, notifications, and most importantly one number to call if there is an issue or question about any filing,” says Lunseth, CEO of Aatrix Software.
Aatrix Software provides one process for everything— be it any form or payment, the agency being filed to, the format required, saving payroll administrators tons of time and the costs associated
Market Research and True Teamwork-The Way Forward
Since its inception, Aatrix has always been an agile company with the ability to anticipate the changes in the marketplace and respond quickly to the changing needs of the payroll community. To meet the needs of the ever-growing complexities of compliance in payroll driven by over 300 taxing authorities, changing legislation, revenue and expense considerations, and changing technologies, Aatrix has formed several groups to stay abreast of the changing needs. For instance, the company’s forms division tracks changing legislation, form changes (20 percent of all forms change each quarter), filing format requirements, and efiling standards. Similarly, Aatrix’seFile center tracks the changing state, local, and federal technology changes involved with data delivery, compliance, and security. The company also has two development groups for online development and desktop product enhancement that meet daily to consider priorities of product delivery to the marketplace and opportunities to expand the features of Aatrix’s existing products as well as new products. To stay ahead of its competitors, Aatrix attends industry, vendor, and end-user conferences throughout the year to get feedback from technical experts, market analysts, and customers that is utilized to improve their offerings, features, and service for their customers.
Another important aspect that drives the company’s success is its team, which always looks forward to new opportunities for growth. Defined by true teamwork and outstanding work culture, Aatrix is helmed by Lunseth, who always strives to find a better way to do things, be it his hobbies or changing market demands. “Our ability to maintain double-digit growth for more than a decade is most impressive,” he adds.
The future looks promising for Aatrix as it continues to expand its offerings and adds new partners every year. “With online forms leading the way, we anticipate a tremendous expansion of our customer base,” says Lunseth. Aatrix also plans to expand into the assisted payroll marketplace where the company’s service will automatically process all of a customer’s payroll tax reports and payments with the push of a button. To further accommodate the growing needs of payroll professionals, the company will soon be moving into its new facility to expand its staff and infrastructure. Driven by a constantly evolving work culture and the urge to stay ahead of the curve, Aatrix is always looking for new opportunities for innovation to provide easy methods of eFiling of payroll reports.
