US: Ultimate Software says that National Gypsum is using its UltiPro product to manage its human resources system. The gypsum wallboard producer is using the product to address challenges in manufacturing and cost control and manage its skilled workforce. National Gypsum started working with Ultimate Software in 2004 and it launched UltiPro's talent management solutions in 2015.
"I can say without exaggeration we are creating ad-hoc reports daily that look at data such as labour allocation, succession planning and global demographics," said Bruce Williams, director of human resources at National Gypsum. He added that the real-time reports aid the company to adapt to industry conditions, extend key resources and make cost savings. The software product has also enabled National Gypsum to reduce the size of its human resources team.
