Case Study: Wellspring Family Services achieves audit compliance and timely grant funding with ADP

Finding grant funding success with better payroll and reporting

Seattle-based Wellspring Family Services is a nonprofit that helps end family homelessness and depends heavily on grant funding to run its programs. Manual payroll and reporting processes left the organization failing audits and unable to show how grant dollars were spent, making fund releases uncertain and putting operations—and employee pay—at risk.

Wellspring implemented ADP Workforce Now with the Timebank/Grant Allocation feature to track actual hours and salary allocations by grant and project, supported by a nonprofit-savvy implementation specialist. As a result they passed audits, get contracts paid on time, reduced audit preparation from about a week and a half to roughly two hours, and now have reliable, validated reporting for budgeting and funders.
