Food Distributor Upgrades To Stanley’s Zeus Time And Attendance Solution

Long standing Stanley Security Solutions customer Reed Boardall has upgraded its time and attendance solution to incorporate Stanley’s Zeus Web Workflow module.

One of the UK’s largest temperature controlled food distributors, Reed Boardall has benefitted from Stanley’s Astrow time and attendance system for over ten years. With sophisticated new solutions added to the Stanley range, Reed Boardall took the decision to look at the new Zeus solution and found it offered many enhanced features that would help improve the way key data is processed and presented.

Features of particular note for Reed Boardall included automated email reporting and full export to Excel, which will help distribute valuable information in a simplistic format across the business with ease and without the need for manual intervention. In addition, enhancements in the Calculation Engine has meant the software can automatically processes all the hours, which previously had been done manually.

Managing Director of Reed Boardall Cold Storage, Garry Tilburn comments on his company’s decision to upgrade its time and attendance system: “Astrow has served us well over the years as our business has grown from strength to strength; it has been a very good reliable solution for us. We were not looking to change from Astrow but when we saw the additional features and benefits of the new system Zeus our minds were made up for us to change. It will offer us improved processes and help us distribute key business information quickly and efficiently.”

Zeus is an innovative system from Stanley that provides automatic calculations of hours worked, breaks and overtime in real time ensuring that a company’s time and attendance system is always up to date.

Zeus also offers hosted services solutions, using the most advanced ASP technology which allows real time information to be communicated between employees and HR. Zeus ASP can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection, giving customers the ability to manage a remote workforce with ease.

Reed Boardall not only benefits from Stanley’s time and attendance solutions but also uses the company’s Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) barrier system which controls vehicle access on and off site and records which tractors are with which trailer and hands free long range access control which monitors and controls across the multi-building 50 acre site in North Yorkshire.
