August 2014 Integrated Solutions

Powell Tronics will soon be complementing its hardware solutions from Impro, Morpho and Golmar with Synerion’s workforce management (WFM) solutions.

Mike Austen, national sales manager at Powell Tronics says that with more than 25 years’ experience in workforce management, Synerion has more than 5500 installations worldwide, and its solutions help to manage more than 4 million employees in a wide range of industries. Their solution takes into account an organisation’s specific requirements, including collective agreements, labour legislation, scheduling, absence management activity based costing and much more.

Synerion offers a comprehensive and modular suite of software solutions that help plan, monitor, and maximise an employee’s life cycle within the organisation. The addition of Synerion to Powell Tronics’ existing offering will further enhance its goal of adding real value to the supply chain.

Escalating costs, complex work practices, legislation and increasing competition are driving organisations to seek effective WFM solutions. With anywhere from 20% to 70% of operational costs going toward labour, ensuring productivity is optimised and costs are controlled, is a critical success factor.

WFM modules supported:

• Time and attendance.

• Absence management.

• Time costing.

• Scheduling – controlling labour costs without compromising and ensuring compliance.

• Employee self-service – Web interface for statutory employees.

• Employer self-service – Web interface for employer.

• Synerion analytics – Business intelligence.

• Synerion mobile – for remote sites, field workers and mobile staff.
