PSS World Medical Partners With Ultimate Softwares SaaS Model for HR, Talent Management


(Wireless News Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
Ultimate Software, a provider of end-to-end strategic human resources,
payroll, and talent management solutions, announced that PSS World
Medical has partnered with Ultimate Software s core UltiPro, delivered
through its software-as-a-service model, Intersourcing.

Over the next six to eight months, PSS World Medical will unveil
UltiPro Performance Management, UltiPro Recruitment, and UltiPro Time
and Attendance.

"One year ago, the last thing I was contemplating was to change human
resource solutions. But, our executive team realized that to help
achieve our financial goals, we needed to have talent acquisition and
leadership development tools in place alongside analytical reporting
capabilities," said Smith. "We have an employee-centric organization,
so we knew that to continue to elevate employee services and the
contributions of our human resources team, we needed one solution. We
found that in UltiPro."

PSS World Medical is now using core UltiPro s integrated human
resource, benefits administration, and payroll solution, as well as the
UltiPro portal that includes employee and manager self-service. With
manager self-service and UltiPro s reporting capability, leadership can
obtain facts about their team members, including job and compensation
history, whenever needed. Associates can log on to the UltiPro portal
at any time to locate employee forms and news or view their own human
resource and payroll details, including deductions, direct deposit
choices, and year-to-date payroll records.

"Our company cares about our employees and we want to make sure they
have the information they want easily, quickly, and conveniently. By
giving them access that doesn t require phone calls or e-mails, HR and
payroll are also free to spend time on core business projects," said
Jeffrey Anthony, PSS World Medical s senior vice president of Corporate
Development. "The UltiPro implementation was also the most seamless of
any solution we have ever had."

"With Ultimate Software s holistic approach to building human capital
management solutions, PSS World Medical can greatly simplify its
workforce reporting and streamline operations," said Greg Swick, chief
sales officer for Ultimate Software. "Businesses that use Ultimate
Software s UltiPro know they have an HR partner in Ultimate Software
that is focused solely on human resources and looking forward with HR
leaders to creating the very best solutions for managing today s and
tomorrow s people management challenges."
