Case Study: Northwestern Mutual achieves synchronized, low-maintenance clocks with Primex Sync

Northwestern Mutual syncs 350 clocks in under 10 days with Primex

Northwestern Mutual faced significant time management challenges due to an outdated, hard-wired clock system from the late 1970s. The clocks would frequently drift, causing variances of three to five minutes across their facility, which disrupted over 600 daily meetings and led to complaints and lost productivity. To solve this, they turned to vendor Primex for a wireless clock system solution.

Primex implemented a Wireless Clock System synchronized with GPS across 350 clocks at Northwestern Mutual's facility. The installation was completed in less than ten days, eliminating clock drift and the associated maintenance headaches. As a result, angry calls to facility managers dropped from several per week to zero, and maintenance costs were significantly reduced compared to the old system.
