'''Aon Hewitt''' (formerly known as '''Hewitt Associates''') was a provider of [[human capital]] and [[management consulting]] services headquartered in [[Lincolnshire, Illinois]] in the [[United States]]. From 500 offices in 120 countries, it provided consulting, outsourcing, and reinsurance brokerage services. The "Aon Hewitt" brand and legal entities have now been absorbed into the "Aon" business, leaving obsolete the names "Hewitt" and "Aon Hewitt."
 
Hewitt Associates was founded in 1940 and ceased to exist as an independent entity at the completion of its purchase by [[Aon plc|Aon]] in October 2010. Hewitt's operations were then merged at that time with some elements of Aon's consulting arm to become a new subsidiary of the Aon Group called Aon Hewitt. In 2017, the benefits outsourcing department of Aon Hewitt was acquired by [[The Blackstone Group|Blackstone]] and rebranded as [[Alight Solutions]].<ref name=Alight>{{cite web |url=http://www.hrdive.com/news/alight-formerly-part-of-aon-hewitt-seeks-to-expand-its-cloud-services-por/444413/ |title=Alight, formerly part of Aon Hewitt, seeks to expand its cloud services portfolio |first=Valerie |last=Bolden-Barrett |date=June 7, 2017 |publisher=HR Dive |access-date=August 5, 2017 }}</ref>
