Case Study: KS Industries achieves faster processes, $25K savings and weekly payroll with Viewpoint HR Management and Viewpoint Field Management

KS Industries Speeds Up Processes, Boosts Productivity With Viewpoint HR and Field Management Solutions

KS Industries, a Bakersfield, Calif.–based engineering, fabrication and construction services firm founded in 1960, serves the energy sector across six states and manages more than 1,500 employees. As the company grew, manual, paper‑based payroll, HR and field processes created time-consuming reconciliations, costly printing and mailing, frequent errors and administrative bottlenecks that prevented standardization and a move to a weekly pay schedule.

KS Industries implemented Viewpoint HR Management and Viewpoint Field Management integrated with its Vista ERP, creating a self‑service employee portal and automating payroll, open enrollment and field workflows. The change eliminated paper processes, produced an immediate $25,000 in savings, reduced administrative headcount, cut errors and delays, enabled weekly pay, and improved field adoption and the company’s ability to attract skilled labor.
