Tech Data Benefits Transition – U.S.

Your 2017 Avnet health plan enrollments and other company-provided health and welfare benefits will continue for up to six months after the close date. We refer to this period of time after the close when Avnet continues to administer your pay and benefits as the “transition period.”

This website will provide you with important information and forms related to your Avnet benefits when you no longer have access to the Avnet intranet site.

What's Changing

  • Retirement Plans – Your active participation in the Avnet pension, 401(k), and ESPP will end as of the close date; see the benefits transition guide for important details. On Day One, expect to receive information from Tech Data with information regarding the Tech Data 401(k) Plan.
  • Computer Loans – If you have a current loan, payroll deductions will continue during the transition period; however, no new loans will be approved for purchases after the close date.
  • iRecognize – Recognition and service awards will end as of the close date. Unclaimed points can be redeemed by calling Globoforce at 866-294-2290.
  • Avnet @ Your Service – Access to discounts for goods and services will end as of the close date.
  • United Way – Your final payroll contribution will be on the last paycheck before the close date.

What's Staying the Same

  • Health Coverage, FSA/HSA, Life Insurance, and Disability Benefits – Avnet plan enrollments and payroll contributions will continue for up to six months after the close date; see the benefits transition guide for important details on your health and welfare benefits. NOTE: Employees hired on or after the close date will enroll in Tech Data health and welfare benefits.
  • Time Off and Holidays – Avnet’s time off and holiday schedule will be observed during the transition period.
  • Education Assistance – The current level of reimbursement will continue for undergraduate and graduate level courses through 2017. Tech Data will provide information separately about its reimbursement policy.

The benefits transition guide includes additional details on your Avnet health, welfare, and retirement benefits. We encourage you to carefully review this guide and, if desired, print a copy for future reference.
