Global Food Manufacturer to Link Time & Labor
Reporting to Enterprise Systems
MIRAMAR, FL.- February 18,
2004- Kaba Benzing, a subsidiary of $800 million Kaba
Holding AG and worldwide leader in time and labor management systems
, today announced that Alsip, Ill.-based food ingredient
manufacturer Griffith Laboratories will begin implementing Kaba
Benzing's AutoTime time and attendance and labor reporting software
to provide accurate employee attendance and labor information and
share it with other software suites, including Baan Enterprise
Resource Planning (ERP).
AutoTime is a robust software system
for time and attendance, labor distribution, and material movement
tracking for exempt and non-exempt personnel. AutoTime captures and
processes direct and indirect labor and calculates employee payroll
in environments ranging from simple to complex. It offers strategic
value to companies concerned with their use and cost of direct and
indirect labor. It is highly configurable and quickly accommodates
ever-changing, complex work rules that govern employee
pay.
“We have several reasons for selecting Kaba Benzing's
AutoTime,” says John McCarville, Vice President, Information
Technology, at Griffith Laboratories. “We chose Kaba Benzing to link
employee attendance to payroll reporting to streamline the data
collection and because of its user-friendly interface with
supervisory functions. AutoTime also provides easy linkage to our
Baan ERP, and will allow both payroll and shop floor recording.
In addition, Kaba has an international presence that can assist our
global business units.”
AutoTime is installed at over 200
individual sites that employ from 150 to 15,000 employees and
interfaces with leading ERP, payroll and enterprise
systems.
“We look forward to helping Griffith Labs create a
more efficient enterprise system,” emphasizes John Edwards,
president and general manager of Kaba Workforce Solutions. “With
facilities in 19 countries, Kaba can provide Griffith Labs with help
around the globe.”
