Kronos Continues to Accelerate and Simplify Complex, Global Workforce Management Deployments

Kronos Incorporated today announced that Kronos (News - Alert) Paragon - an industry-leading implementation methodology - is now supported in more than 50 countries. To further ease the challenges associated with global deployments across multiple locations, Kronos also introduced a new global workforce management approach that improves global visibility, mitigates compliance risk, and lowers total cost of ownership.

News Facts

• Kronos Paragon is now utilized to streamline implementations of the Kronos Workforce Central suite in the cloud in more than 50 countries. Kronos Paragon provides the building blocks for tens of millions of country-specific and industry-specific compliance regulations, labor laws, and language requirements. Customers can immediately access hands-on, working software that is configured to meet specific, nuanced business needs, no matter industry or geography.
• Since its introduction, nearly 2,000 implementations around the world have been completed with Kronos Paragon, helping organizations achieve faster time-to-value by an average of nearly 40 percent compared to industry-standard implementation processes.
• Kronos leveraged its decades of managing complex workforce management deployments to create the Kronos Paragon implementation methodology and is now utilizing that same expertise to provide the Kronos global workforce management approach by the Kronos professional services organization.
• Whether deploying for the first time, seeking to expand into new markets, or simply pursuing improved efficiencies, the Kronos global approach allows organizations to identify and address global risks to mitigate future challenges, improves visibility through standardization across global workforce strategies - including process change, architecture, and employee education - and develop a global framework and strategic vision for timekeeping, forecasting, and scheduling to future-proof workforce management investments.
• This process accelerates return on investment through standardized processes, streamlined deployment and support models, and effective change management initiatives, while total cost of ownership will be reduced through centralized governance and simplified deployment, management, and support to lower administrative costs across all geographies.
