Bob White of Fahs Construction Replaces Spreadsheet Time Entry with hh2 Remote Payroll

Written by Admin | Apr 1, 2024 2:12:54 PM

Meet Bob White of Fahs Construction, New York. He loves how hh2 has made his payroll manager’s job easier. He estimates that Remote Payroll has cut time tracking overhead by 85%to 90%.

“The first hh2 product I think we had was Remote Payroll. Prior to that we were trying to use spreadsheets we’d set up with dropdown lists and so on and other things so that they could import well,” said Bob.

Bob explains how spreadsheets didn’t offer flexibility for his payroll department. Without hh2, his company paid much more than the value of Remote Payroll in overhead to juggle an outdated time tracking system.

“[Our problem dealt with] the ability to modify things. We had to have the [crew] list built for the employees that were going to be in the job … if somebody new came, we had to bring back the spreadsheet, add names to the list, and send it back out.”

“The integration with our Sage payroll system … works really well. We don’t have bugs. I couldn’t give you an exact hour time but I’d say[we do payroll] probably in the range of 10% to 15% of the time that it used to take to get that data in.”

Bob loves the convenience hh2’s cloud-based solutions offer. He loves the fact that he doesn’t have to worry about payroll data falling through the cracks. With an easy-to-use interface, Fahs Construction’s field supervisors can easily track time for their entire crews in minutes. But most of all, Bob likes the fact that the payroll managers at Fahs Construction are seeing coded time flow right into their accounting system consistently, every Monday morning.

“The biggest thing to me is the fact that data has to be[entered] … before they can put time to somebody. That forces the field guys to get payroll in on time. We have a new employee hire package that we have in the field … it gives us all of the data, what type of deductions they want and everything. We get that all set up before we pull the time in[to our accounting system]; [that] makes it a lot easier for payroll. To me that enforcement part… is a really big plus. The speed is obviously a plus too but having that information, forcing them to get it in is the biggie.”

Bob’s company relies on hh2’s solutions. He knows that he could pay a lot more for services that don’t offer all of hh2’s features. The best part: Bob loves the price.

“You don’t have to buy a big package. The more you use, the more you pay. But it’s got a really decent schedule to me of prices. You don’t have to invest a lot and get involved with it. And monthly, it’s not a big hit.”
