Case Study: The Industrial Service Group achieves 3,000+ hours saved in onboarding and unified digital HR with Paylocity

Growing Industrial Group Forges a New Model for Ultra-Efficient Digital HR

The Industrial Service Group (ISG), a rapidly growing MRO group of 16 companies with 1,200 employees across 49 locations, faced fragmented, paper-based HR processes after a string of acquisitions—slow recruitment, half-day onboarding sessions, and scattered data that hindered compliance and workforce planning. To modernize and standardize HR across the group, ISG expanded its initial payroll use and adopted the Paylocity platform across all entities.

Paylocity delivered an end-to-end digital HR solution—Recruiting, Onboarding, Learning, Data Insights, Mobile App, Community and Employee Voice—plus integrations with Verified First, Employee Navigator and ISG’s ERP to automate hiring, onboarding, training and analytics. The deployment (17 implementations in three years) cut onboarding time so ISG saved more than 3,000 hours in a year, reduced EEOC reporting to two minutes, eliminated duplicate data entry across systems, and gave leaders actionable workforce insights for strategic hiring—while lowering implementation costs versus competitors.
