Overview
As a start-up in 2016 with a fluid workforce and one of the most challenging pay regimes, Atom Resources knew there was value in outsourcing the middle office admin for all their contractor onboarding, timesheets, payroll processing, sales invoice generation and margin reporting. As a result, it has delivered accurate visibility and efficiency across Atom’s operations and complements a successful recruitment model that maintains the integrity of its blue-collar workforce.
Approach
Simplifying processes for a complex workforce
Managed payroll services
Atom engaged EPG to process payments for their independent contractors and interposed entities accurately and compliantly while focusing on building a solid client base.
Process improvement
EPG transitioned Atom over to HCM platform Expedo to handle the growing complexities of their blue-collar labour hire industry.
Fast deployment
Upon receiving an initial employment contract, Atom can send updated assignment specifications, avoiding the need to re-onboard.
Seamless integration
New contractor data received from JobAdder automatically flows into Expedo. From there, workers receive one link to paperless onboarding and required WH&S inductions, with their payroll data syncing with EPG’s systems.
Time to Bill
Expedo’s flexible assignment architecture calculates shift wages, allowances, overtime and industry awards based on the worker’s timesheet and pushes data through to EPG’s payroll software. In addition, multiple clients can be invoiced in a single batch, and timesheet approvals automatically attached with audit trails for faster payments.
Margin reporting
Real time reports and forecasting provide actionable business insights and performance renumeration analytics per consultant, including the ability to split payments for commission purposes.
Seamless expansion of services worldwide
Exceptional ongoing international support
Collaborative approach to risk mitigation
Strategic evaluation of business solutions
