In short

How do I stay ahead of Sequoia benefits plan renewal deadlines?

WebRun checks Sequoia every Monday for benefits plan renewal dates coming up within 60 days. It exports the plan details and enrolled employee count to Google Sheets and emails your People team a prep reminder before the renewal closes, so a plan never auto-renews without your team having reviewed it first.

  • Renewal deadlines get a 60 day head start
  • People teams always have plan details ready before deciding
  • No plan renews without a reviewed prep reminder first

Questions, answered

Does it renew or change the plan itself?

No. WebRun only tracks the date and reminds your team. Renewing or changing a plan stays a decision made in Sequoia.

Does it message employees about the renewal?

No, the reminder goes to your internal People team. Any employee-facing benefits communication is still sent by your team.

How far ahead does it flag a renewal?

It picks up any plan renewal within the next 60 days and keeps the sheet updated until the renewal closes.
