Case Study: SUNY College at Old Westbury
Our HCM Solutions Pass With Flying Colors
CHALLENGE
SUNY Old Westbury, a public college that is part of the State University of New York system, found itself struggling to find a human capital management (HCM) platform for their students and their employees that was reliable, accurate, and simple to use for all involved. The college’s new business manager Michael Castonguay called on Accu Data, having used our payroll and office management solutions during his tenures at Morey Organization and Anton Publishing.
SOLUTION
Accu Data instantly saw the need to move the college away from its manual HCM process, which was siloed and susceptible to human error, and to transition to an automated, cloud-based solution. This would allow students and employees, who spend most of their time on-the-go, to sign in, either through their mobile device or via computer. In addition, Accu Data installed a physical time-clock/fingerprint reader that works with the HCM software to create digital timesheets, resulting in a simpler, more efficient and more accurate payroll.
Throughout the conversion, Accu Data's support services were consistently onsite to oversee the transition and to answer any questions the college’s staff had.
RESULT
The seamless transition from the school’s legacy HCM process to Accu Data’s comprehensive and scalable HCM software helped HR and payroll teams manage all their workforce management processes. And, true to their reputation, Accu Data was there for the client every step of the way. “Some may look at a payroll service as a commodity,” Michael Castonguay said, “but Accu Data is there as your expert to support your organization in all areas of payroll, human resources, tax, and compliance.”
