Kronos Adds Callaway Golf Company as Global and Mobile Cloud Customer
CHELMSFORD, Mass. --(Business Wire)--
Kronos
Incorporated today announced that Callaway Golf Company, a leading
manufacturer of premium golf equipment, has selected its solutions
deployed in the Kronos (News - Alert) Cloud to globally standardize workforce
management processes.
News Facts
-
Callaway Golf selected Kronos time and attendance and absence
management applications to accurately collect employee time-worked
data and minimize compliance risks associated with leave laws. The
Kronos solution will integrate with Callaway Golf's SAP (News - Alert) ERP system,
improving the overall accuracy of labor data entering the ERP system.
-
Callaway Golf is deploying the Kronos applications in the Kronos
Cloud, allowing Kronos to perform all configuration, maintenance,
upgrades, and support of the workforce management solution. This will
enable the manufacturer to focus more on business operations while
keeping costs down, as it won't require additional IT resources.
-
For improved efficiency, Callaway Golf also selected mobile
applications from Kronos - available on both smartphones and tablets -
making it easier for managers and employees to complete a wide range
of workforce-related tasks from any location, at any time. The instant
visibility and mobility on labor-related issues while on-the-go will
particularly benefit Callaway Golf's population of field-based
employees.
-
Callaway Golf chose Kronos to replace a payroll service bureau it
previously used, as Kronos can easily and effectively support the
global needs of multinational organizations as well as provide local,
region-specific knowledge and support. In addition, the previous
payroll service bureau could not fully automate and handle
union-specific requirements - a process now automated and simplified
by Kronos.
