Case Study: Karsten Interior Services cuts payroll errors 90% with SmartBarrel

Karsten Interior Services cuts payroll errors by 90% with SmartBarrel

Karsten Interior Services, a Houston-based specialty contractor with over 1,000 employees, faced significant challenges with its paper-based time tracking system. The process was plagued by forgotten sign-outs, manual data re-entry into the Plexxis app, and errors in job costing, which created a growing administrative burden as the company scaled. To solve this, they turned to SmartBarrel's AI-powered timeclock solution.

By implementing SmartBarrel's portable time clocks, kiosk mode, and mobile app with facial verification, Karsten eliminated buddy punching and automated its time tracking. The solution integrated natively with Plexxis, saving each foreman 10 hours per week on administrative tasks. This allowed Karsten to double its workforce while reducing payroll errors by 90% and maintaining its payroll team with no additional hires.
