AutoTime Interfaces with Oracle Work in Process
Database Application
MIRAMAR, FL. – Aug. 26, 2004 – Kaba Workforce
Solutions, the North American operating subsidiary of $800 million
Kaba Holding AG and worldwide leader in time and labor management
systems, today announced that Kinetic Concepts, Inc. (KCI), a global
medical technology company with leadership positions in advanced
wound care and therapeutic surfaces, will use its AutoTime time and
attendance and labor reporting software to provide accurate time,
labor and production tracking information.
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.
KCI will be using AutoTime with Oracle's Work in Process
application. AutoTime is Oracle-certified and interfaces seamlessly
with Oracle’s Work in Process, Projects, financial & HR
applications. Time and labor information collected by AutoTime will
be used in conjunction with Work in Process to track when each of
six operations is completed, and then to determine the actual labor
cost for each work order.
"Our certified Oracle interface ensures that manufacturers
already using Oracle applications, such as Kinetic Concepts, can
integrate AutoTime to receive timely, accurate labor and production
data," emphasizes John Edwards, President and General Manager of
Kaba Workforce Solutions. "Integrating AutoTime with Work in Process
will allow KCI to operate in a highly efficient and cost effective
environment."
AutoTime is installed at over 300 individual sites that employ
from 150 to 15,000 employees and interfaces with leading ERP,
payroll and enterprise systems.
