Compa and wtw announce a partnership to provide compensation intelligence for enterprise comp teams

NEWPORT BEACH, CA, September 8, 2025 - Compa, the compensation intelligence platform with the largest real-time market data network, and WTW (NASDAQ: WTW), a leading global advisory, broking, and solutions company, announce a partnership designed to help compensation teams navigate today's dynamic labor market. This partnership enables organizations to more seamlessly access and coordinate insights from both real-time market data and globally benchmarked pay survey data - providing enterprise compensation teams the agility to act quickly in competitive markets and the structure to plan long-term with confidence.

As labor markets stay volatile and pay transparency expands, compensation leaders face growing pressure to balance speed with governance. The Compa-WTW partnership addresses this challenge by aligning two complementary strengths: Compa's live offer intelligence and WTW's validated global benchmarks. Together, they offer a complete and defensible view of market pay.

"Compensation teams are no longer choosing between published compensation survey or real-time data-they need both," said Erica Johnson, Head of Rewards Data Intelligence North America at WTW. "This partnership ensures pay strategies are both responsive and grounded, helping organizations compete in today's market."

The combined compensation intelligence provided by Compa and WTW solutions allow enterprise compensation teams to:

  • Benchmark annual pay reviews using WTW's trusted survey data
  • Respond quickly to market shifts with Compa's real-time offer insights
  • Connect long-term strategy to day-to-day hiring decisions
  • Deliver evidence-based comp narratives to executives and employees

"WTW provides the foundation of global benchmarks, while Compa delivers the agility of live market signals," said Charlie Franklin, CEO of Compa. "Together, compensation leaders get the intelligence they need to guide pay with clarity and confidence."

This collaboration reflects the industry's shift toward hybrid data strategies in compensation. Different decisions call for different data-whether planning annual reviews, evaluating competitive offers, or ensuring compliance. By aligning structured benchmarks with real-time signals, Compa and WTW set a new standard for how enterprise teams design and execute pay strategies.
