Pasadena, California – June 7, 2005
Tenrox, the Integrated Operational Control and Compliance Software Company, announced that following the successful completion of two pilot projects, CROSSMARK® has purchased 2,200 licenses of Tenrox Workforce Management software. CROSSMARK is a professional services company for consumer packaged goods (CPG) manufacturers and retailers with more than 3,000 clients in the United States.
Tenrox Workforce Management software will replace CROSSMARK's manual time and labor tracking system, which was proving ineffective in tracking specific client accounts and projects. Tenrox Time and Expense provides CROSSMARK with an enterprise project and Workforce Management solution for approximately 2,000 associates across the country. The accurate and detailed tracking of project time, expense, costs, and approvals provided by Tenrox software will enable CROSSMARK to increase its internal business efficiencies, and help the company to quickly assess project health and profitability, which was not possible with its manual tracking system.
CROSSMARK will also be able to convert project and workforce data into financial transactions that are exported directly into the company's payroll and accounting systems. In addition, automated real-time work policy validation and robust integration and information flow will ensure data accuracy by eliminating any intentional or inadvertent human error during manual or user-driven verifications and data exchanges. This improves CROSSMARK's ability to automate compliance to industry and labor regulations such as the FMLA (Family Leave Act), FLSA (Fair Labor Standards Act) and State wage laws across the country.
“After evaluating several other solutions, it was clear that Tenrox's modular product was the best fit for CROSSMARK in terms of satisfying both our current and long-term needs,” said Rodger Fisher, Vice President of Human Resources at CROSSMARK. “The product's administration is simple and straightforward, it's easy to use, and Tenrox was willing to work with us in order to configure the solution to fit our business objectives and requirements. Tenrox also had the expertise, the professional services team and delivery capabilities to implement and support our large operations on an ongoing basis.”
“Tenrox has designed its system to avoid the need for the installation of any other third party application other than applications provided by the standard Windows operating system, SQL Server database, and the Microsoft Office family for project management, document management and reporting. The out-of-the-box combination of Tenrox, Microsoft Office Project, SharePoint products and technologies, SQL Reporting Services, and OLAP Analysis Services is a modular solution, offering mature and configurable integrations that address all of our clients' portfolio, project and workforce management needs, without forcing them to change or to be locked into a specific accounting or payroll system,” said Fadi-Paul Tawil, Product Manager, Tenrox.
