Background and Discussion:

HCSO currently operates across multiple workforce management systems, including IntelliTime, UKG TeleStaff (scheduling), and STARS (PeopleSoft HCM) as the system of record for payroll. This fragmented approach has resulted in inconsistent processes, manual workarounds, and limited visibility into workforce data.

 

As the agency moves toward a more modern, integrated workforce management model, transitioning to UKG Pro Workforce Management provides the opportunity to standardize processes, improve data integrity, and align with industry’s best practices.

 

Expected Impact:

Implementing these components will shift HCSO from a reactive, manual process to a proactive, data-driven workforce management model. Command staff will have the tools needed to identify and correct issues early, Workforce Administration will reduce manual workload, and the agency will improve compliance, accountability, and overall operational efficiency.
