MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ceridian Corporation, a leading provider of workforce management, human resource, payroll, and benefits administration solutions, announced today the signing of Hoffmaster, its 200th InView Workforce Management customer. Ceridian’s InView Workforce Management is a complete, integrated workforce planning and labor scheduling tool that saves time, cuts costs and aligns employee performance with business goals.


“We are extremely pleased with how well our solution is being accepted in the marketplace”


Ceridian first announced the availability of its industry-leading workforce management SaaS solution on February 15, 2011 and predicted “significant … sales in 2011 and beyond.” There were just 111 business days between that announcement and Ceridian’s signing of its 200th InView customer on July 27, 2011. Hoffmaster will participate with Ceridian at the 14th Annual HR Technology Conference (HR Tech), held in Las Vegas, October 3-5.


“We are extremely pleased with how well our solution is being accepted in the marketplace,” said Howard Tarnoff, senior vice president and general manager of Ceridian’s InView Workforce Management. “I’ve not seen market momentum like this from any WFM solution in the 33 years I have been in the industry. No competitor has ever come anywhere close to the run rate we have accomplished.”


Hoffmaster, a leading disposable tabletop products manufacturer in the U.S., feels so confident about InView Workforce Management they will host groundbreaking Internet coverage of the product’s live implementation. The historic coverage will begin with the project kickoff on Thursday, August 18 and will follow the Ceridian and Hoffmaster process until the solution is fully implemented, which will be completed by the start of the HR Tech show on October 3.


“After a thorough review of current workforce management solutions we chose Ceridian’s,” commented Dave Vierthaler, vice president, Human Resources, Hoffmaster Group, Inc. “We were looking for a solution that was not only easy to install and use, but also provided us with the ability to better manage our workforce and gave us the kind of significant ROI other InView customers have experienced.”


Hoffmaster’s willingness to blog and tweet the implementation of InView Workforce Management live on the Internet is a testament to its confidence in the product and its own Company’s and Ceridian’s professionals. During the historic coverage both the Hoffmaster and Ceridian implementation teams will be tweeting about the process, which can be followed on Twitter at @Hoffmaster_HR and @elabdallahMaher (Maher El-Abdallah, Ceridian director of InView Workforce Management implementation). For full coverage follow Ceridian at @Ceridian_US and @htarnoff (Howard Tarnoff), or interested readers can search on the hashtag #InView200. There will also be daily discussion posted at the HR Technology® Conference group on LinkedIn, an open forum encouraging broad community participation in the progress from discovery to go live.


 

Proper implementation of HR technology is a complex process. No company has undertaken or conducted a live, open process. Ceridian and Hoffmaster fully expect wide HR community discussion of this innovative social media experiment, and anticipate additional commentary on Internet sites such as HRHappyHour, an online radio program devoted to the HR industry.
