Case Study: Ace Hardware reduces payroll costs with Deputy

Thornton and Hidden Lakes Ace Hardware reduced their payroll costs compared to sales by 10% with Deputy

Ace Hardware needed a simpler way to manage multi-store scheduling, labor planning, time-off requests, and payroll visibility across its locations. After transitioning to Deputy, the team gained an easier-to-use app that let associates view schedules, managers adjust shifts on the fly, and payroll be monitored more closely.

Deputy helped Ace Hardware improve demand forecasting, reduce scheduling errors, and stay on top of compliance and time-sheet accuracy. With Deputy’s reporting and payroll controls, Ace Hardware reduced payroll costs as a percentage of sales by 10% year over year and plans to keep rolling the platform out to new stores.
