WESTON, Fla., Aug. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Ultimate Software
(Nasdaq: ULTI), a leading provider of human resources, payroll, and workforce
management solutions, announced today that Angels Baseball LP, the ownership
group for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, is "live" on Ultimate Software's
UltiPro Workforce Management through the Intersourcing on-demand hosted
service model after a five-week implementation.
Prior to UltiPro, Angels Baseball had been using a payroll service bureau,
but wanted access to detailed real-time workforce reporting as well as Web
self-service for efficiencies. The baseball club selected UltiPro in February
2006 and undertook an aggressive implementation schedule since its peak season
was quickly approaching. During the baseball season, Angels Baseball's
employee counts can jump from approximately 500 employees to 1,400 employees,
so the HR/payroll group wanted to be "live" before the seasonal expansion. The
organization began its implementation in March and ran its first payroll in
April 2006.
"Our implementation went very smoothly, and the Ultimate Software team was
amazing," said Cris Fisher, controller for Angels Baseball. "Everyone worked
very hard to achieve our goal to be up and running in record time
Ultimate Software's consulting services team provides customers with a
standardized implementation methodology that focuses on synchronizing project
resources, budget, and elapsed time. Professional services consultants at
Ultimate Software have an average of 14 years of industry experience and have
been with Ultimate Software for an average of 5+ years.
"The long-term tenure and industry expertise of our professional
consultants have been the driving factors in Ultimate Software's track record
of implementation successes," said Greg Swick, senior vice president of sales
for Ultimate Software. "Rapid, on-time implementations are important to our
customers' satisfaction and their budgets. We are very pleased that the
Angels' implementation was completed quickly and that they are on their way to
reaping the business benefits UltiPro and Intersourcing have to offer them."
