Case Study: Drake Waterfowl cuts payroll processing time and reduces turnover with UKG Ready

Drake Waterfowl cuts payroll processing time by 97% with UKG

Drake Waterfowl, a premium hunting apparel and gear brand, faced challenges with rapid growth and seven disconnected systems that limited workforce visibility and created inefficiencies. This made payroll processing slow and hindered decision-making. To address this, the company turned to UKG and implemented the UKG Ready suite.

By consolidating its systems into the all-in-one UKG Ready platform, Drake Waterfowl streamlined its operations. The solution from UKG accelerated payroll processing from 5 hours to just 7 minutes and helped reduce the company's employee turnover rate from 347% to double digits. This freed the HR team to focus on strategic initiatives and provided accurate data to strengthen company culture.
