Case Study: Team 1 Plastics achieves streamlined HR — 4x faster onboarding and 99% faster ACA reporting with Paylocity

Automotive Manufacturer Fuels Product Innovation with Streamlined HR

Team 1 Plastics, a 70-employee Michigan plastic injection molder, needed to modernize HR after payroll errors, downtime, and cumbersome spreadsheets left its one-person HR team overwhelmed. After a problematic move to ADP, they turned to Paylocity and its HR platform to replace manual ACA reporting, paper onboarding, benefits administration, and unreliable time collection.

Paylocity implemented Payroll, Time & Attendance (with geofencing and a mobile app), Onboarding, Benefits Administration, and Insights & Recommendations, delivering dramatic efficiency gains: ACA reporting is 99% faster (from one week to about 20 minutes), onboarding is 4x faster (2 hours to 30 minutes), benefits management workloads are down roughly 80% saving about 50 hours annually, and payroll/timekeeping reliability has improved—freeing HR to focus on strategic work.
