The Challenge
Previously, TANDBERG Television relied on manual Excel spreadsheets and
paper-based systems to administer holiday requests. With more than 400
employees in UK, maintenance of time off requests and balances proved to be
labor-intensive and prone to inaccuracies. As a result, approval cycles became a
lengthy and drawn-out process.
According to Karen Duffy, Business Analyst of TANDBERG Television, they were
in need of an employee vacation tracking software to help them "cut down the
effort currently employed in administering [their] paper-based system where our
secretaries handle paper [trails] from [hundreds of] employees." More specifically, they needed a solution that was
Internet based with approval routing.
The Solution
Duffy explained that Replicon was their vendor of choice because Web TimeOff (now Web TimeSheet Time & Attendance
Edition) comprised of all the features they needed.
"The demo was easily accessible and we were up and running within minutes," said Duffy. "We found it extremely simple
to use."
The Results
User adoption of the software was immediate. Employees were submitting their time off requests correctly and on time
within minutes, thanks to the easy to use interface. Since the software was web based, managers could approval time off
online and the time off process from submission to approvals now took a few hours instead of days, freeing their Human
Resources Department to work on other activities.
The reporting feature gave managers an at-a-glance look at how much time their employees were taking and where they
could afford to have minimal staff for those time periods, saving the company in overtime and vacation time costs.
Managers could rely on the comprehensive audit trails to understand the time off taken, requested, approved and
rejected, helping them predict resources for cover off and thereby increasing productivity for Tandberg Television overall.
