All BAE Systems North America Facilities Use Same
License Agreement
MIRAMAR, FL. – April 19, 2004 – Kaba Benzing, a
subsidiary of $800 million Kaba Holding AG and worldwide leader in
time and labor management systems , today announced that Rockville,
Md.-based BAE Systems North America can use the same license
agreement to implement Kaba Benzing's AutoTime time and attendance
and labor reporting software to provide accurate labor information
and validate production orders and operations. Three BAE Systems
North America facilities are already using AutoTime while a fourth
is being implemented presently.
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 selected Kaba Benzing's AutoTime because we needed a single
web-based solution that could meet the complex time and attendance
and labor distribution requirements, such as union rules and varying
state requirements,” reports Pat Shannon of BAE Systems North
America Platform Solutions in Johnson City , NY . ”For a growing
business, that's a necessity.”
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.
“BAE Systems is one of the top ten suppliers to the U.S.
Department of Defense and employs more than 25,000 people,”
emphasizes John Edwards, president and general manager of Kaba
Workforce Solutions . “We are honored that so many leading defense
contractors, such as BAE Systems North America, trust us with their
valuable data. We look forward to implementing their various
facilities.”
