Protime and Kaba announce their partnership for Workforce Management as a Service 

Aartselaar (B) / Villingen-Schwenningen (D) 

For a growing number of companies, the need for a state of the art system for time attendance is very clear. However, funding for the right system can be a problem. A new and successful co-operation between Protime and Kaba results in a new solution: Workforce Management as a Service. Kaba and Protime thus offer companies the possibility of opting for a completely outsourced workforce management service package, including hardware and software. 

 

 

Workforce management as a service is a new ASP solution for time and attendance. The rental costs for the system are invoiced on a monthly basis and are based on the number of people who actually participate in the time attendance system, as well as the number of terminals installed. 

Automatic updates 

The new solution consists on the one hand of the ASP solution of Protime in the range of time attendance and personnel planning and on the other hand of the time attendance terminals from Kaba. The time attendance software is located in the data center of Protime. The end customer therefore does not require a separate server, which saves purchase and maintenance costs. Protime guarantees the operational reliabililty of the system around the clock. Automatic updates to the time attendance software happen regularly so that the end customer benefits from the latest software version at all times. 

Online communication 

For the new ASP solution, Kaba has developed a new web-based online communication system for their time attendance terminals. The use of standard technologies (HTTP/XML) permits collaboration with external service providers and thus a time and attendance solution as a service. When an employee clocks In or Out at the time attendance terminal, the data are transmitted via the Internet to the Protime software. The software generates personalized XML-based content and sends this back to the terminal with subsequent visualization (e.g. thank you, good morning, flexitime balance). For the user, the operation of the terminal is identical to that of a local system.
