VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Day & Zimmermann, one
of America's largest private companies with more than 24,000 employees, and a
leading provider of high-end security forces, has gone live with the InTime
Scheduling Engine (ISE) in its Security Services division. ISE is InTime's
next-generation employee scheduling and deployment solution built specifically
for managing law enforcement, probation and security services. ISE is being
rolled out in all Day & Zimmermann Security Services locations across the
country, involving approximately 4,500 employees. The roll-out should be
completed by early 2009.
    "Day & Zimmermann's Security Services division provides high-level
security for such important national security sites as the Los Alamos National
Laboratory and a number of military depots," said Harry Dollard, president and
CEO of InTime Solutions. "They need a highly reliable product that helps them
manage their workforce fast and effectively, while also integrating with their
SAP enterprise system. InTime's Scheduling Engine achieves all that while
providing them with a real-time, transparent-view window into their manpower
costs."
    Managing overtime costs an important consideration
    With multiple units, the Security Services division is rolling out ISE to
its various locations throughout this year. SAP integration of payroll is a
critical factor, as is the need to manage overtime costs. With 4,500 employees
in the division, overtime can mount up quickly if not administered
efficiently.
    "We want to manage our overtime costs, as these can be a huge variable
component," said Anthony Bosco, who oversees 90 people in the company's IT
department in his role as Day & Zimmermann's vice president and CIO. "InTime
Scheduling enables us to automate our scheduling and quickly do what-if
analyses to maximize shift coverage while minimizing our costs at the same
time. It brings predictability to the management process, and that helps our
operations run more smoothly and efficiently for our clients."  Adds Michael
Friess, the company's senior director of application development and strategy,
"ISE integrates easily with SAP, enabling us to roll this out across all the
security locations with confidence. The early implementation has gone smoothly
and we expect that to continue until the last one is completed, probably by
early in 2009."  Built on an enterprise-class IT infrastructure, ISE has
proven to be reliable and scalable for large deployments while also being able
to work in smaller organizations. It is the powerful and proven law
enforcement software tool that takes care of building, maintaining and
controlling the scheduling of an organization's workforce, no matter how large
the organization or how the operation is run.
