Case Study: Arvato Supply Chain Solutions achieves accurate timekeeping, streamlined leave management and flexible scheduling with Softworks

How Arvato SCM Ireland Ltd. uses Softworks for employee Time & Attendance, Scheduling and Leave Management

Arvato SCM Ireland Ltd., part of the Arvato Supply Chain Solutions Group (Bertelsmann), faced the imminent end-of-life of a 20-year on‑premise workforce management system and used the opportunity to seek a cloud-based replacement capable of automated time & attendance, flexible scheduling, robust security and data migration, payroll integration, extensive reporting and clear value for money.

They selected Softworks’ ISO 27001‑certified cloud solution (Time & Attendance, Absence Management, Scheduling, Employee Self‑Service and Alerts/Workflows), configured complex business rules, migrated data and trained staff. The result: to‑the‑minute clockings (including remote PC clocking), simplified leave approvals, automated payroll rules, 60+ shift patterns/30 rosters for flexible rostering, custom reporting and email approval workflows — reducing administrative load, improving accuracy and increasing manager and employee self‑service.
