The Challenge: Streamlining HR Workflows From BambooHR To ADP Workforce Now To Save Valuable Time

The biopharmaceutical company needed to expand its workforce to handle critical cancer research. For the company to scale up efficiently, the HR department required automation to replace its inefficient manual processes for onboarding new hires and handling employee updates.

Flexspring had the experience and knowledge to help the company automate employee data from BambooHR into ADP Workforce Now with a hands-free, point-to-point solution.

The Transformation: ADP Workforce Now With BambooHR

Performing manual onboarding for recruits, updating existing employee statuses, and managing specialized payroll data consumed valuable time, hindering the expansion of their workforce and the advancement of life-saving research.

However, following the automation and data synchronization integration between BambooHR and ADP Workforce Now, the company significantly enhanced its operational efficiency. The IT Consultant spearheading the integration project estimates a monthly saving of at least 25 hours, empowering them to allocate additional time toward pursuing life-saving cancer care therapies.

The Integration Included

New Hires From BambooHR To ADP Workforce Now

As soon as a hiring manager presses the hired button in BambooHR, new hire data automatically syncs in ADP with essential information needed to process payroll in real time.

Employee Updates From BambooHR To ADP Workforce Now

When current employee data changes in BambooHR, the data automatically updates in ADP. Data integration ensures that all employee data needed to process payroll is up-to-date for current employees.

“My favorite feature is that it all works,” said the IT Consultant. “Flexspring’s knowledge was extremely helpful. Specifically, we have some custom bonus and payroll information fields that had to be calculated when they entered the payroll system, so we needed a company that really knows ADP and BambooHR, like the HR data integration experts at Flexspring do.”

The Results: An Exceptional Experience

Flexspring skillfully met the project requirements crucial to the biopharmaceutical firm. HR data integration experts asked the right questions, helping the IT Consultant smoothly achieve the desired results without retracing steps.

Automation created substantial value as the company leveraged insights into the specialized APIs and custom fields mapped by Flexspring’s experts. The IT Consultant hailed the entire integration project as an exceptional experience.

“Prior to Flexspring’s integration, we had quite a few data entry errors,” said the IT Consultant.” We wanted to alleviate any manual input errors as we added new hires. Data integration eliminated a considerable amount of headaches, saving us time.”

Conclusion: A Critical Success

Integrating BambooHR has increased the operational efficiency of the clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to developing critical cancer therapies. Facing the challenge of streamlining HR workflows and eliminating data-entry errors, the company sought to automate processes to accommodate its expanding workforce and focus on life-saving research.

Flexspring’s expertise in integrating BambooHR with ADP Workforce Now provided a seamless, hands-free solution.

This transformation significantly reduced manual onboarding efforts, employee status updates, and specialized payroll management, resulting in a monthly saving of 25 hours for the HR team.

Automation ensured real-time data synchronization between BambooHR and ADP, preventing errors and enhancing accuracy in critical payroll information—ultimately enabling the company to allocate more resources to advancing life-saving cancer therapies.
