News Facts

• KM2 Solutions is a 24/7 business which requires a modern, flexible, and scalable solution to keep up with its rapid growth, meet workplace expectations of its nearly 4,000 agents, and usher in the future of work. Workforce Ready will streamline human resources (HR) and payroll operations through a unified cloud suite to serve the needs of the organization’s hourly and salaried workforce across the entire employee lifecycle, from pre-hire to retire.

• The Kronos HCM experience will empower KM2 employees throughout its near-shore locations to accomplish daily tasks and receive at-a-glance updates about schedules, benefits, and performance from anywhere, on any device. For managers, HR processes will be simplified through responsive dashboards and the elimination of manual tasks, such as managing overtime and billable hours, freeing them up to focus on strategy and employee development initiatives.
• KM2 will benefit from the expertise of Kronos customer success and strategic advisory teams throughout its initiative to modernize operations and further engage managers and agents to continue to deliver the highest caliber of cost-effective, bilingual solutions for its customers.
