Eliminate Manual Time and Attendance Entry

PROFESSIONAL STAFFING SLOWED BY MANUAL ENTRY

Taylor & Hill, Inc. is a full service engineering, design/drafting, laser scanning, and professional staffing services firm operating out of Houston, Texas. They bill on average 25 million dollars per year (as of 2013) and have a payroll of about 20 million dollars per year for anywhere from 150-250 contract personnel at a time.

They were having issues billing for a major client who was requesting that Taylor & Hill enter Time and Attendance for each employee on the client's own software. “We made a lot of errors,” Controller Olga Arnold said, “We manually had to enter that information into their system.”

AN AUTOMATED SOLUTION FOR EMPLOYEE TIME AND PAYROLL

Taylor & Hill came to Kerr for advice on streamlining this process and reducing the errors made and hours spent on manual entry. We worked on site with them in their Houston office to assess their needs. Kerr's Ian Cook ultimately executed queries to synchronize Sage 300 (formerly Accpac) with their client’s system of managing time and payroll.

Our billing process improved, our cash flow has improved because we bill on time, our billing is accurate. So we don't have any rejections on those invoices we send to this client.

— Olga Arnold, Controller

Their company radically reduced the amount of effort spent entering time from three weeks down to “probably ten minutes to upload that information” (Olga).
