TeamSpirit in the Manufacturing Sector

30 years as a leading supplier of integrated HR and Payroll software has allowed us to gain a wealth of experience in many market sectors, including manufacturing. To date 30% of Bond TeamSpirit's client base consists of organisations with 100+ employees in the manufacturing sector.

The manufacturing sector is one where Bond TeamSpirit has a huge amount of knowledge and experience.  Perhaps one reason for this is the fact that TeamSpirit has over 30 years of experience in the provision of fully integrated and flexible solutions for Payroll, HR and Time & Attendance. 

To date 30% of Bond TeamSpirit's client base consists of organisations with 100+ employees in the manufacturing sector.  As a result we have some excellent case studies and reference sites to support our wealth of experience within this sector.  Some of our clients in the manufacturing sector include Brush Electrical Machines, Eurotherm, Fairfax Meadows, Headland Foods, J.Barbour and Sons, Marshall of Cambridge Aerospace and Newsquest Media Group, to name but a few.

TeamSpirit is a modular yet fully integrated solution with core modules consisting of HMRC Accredited Payroll Software, HR Software including absence management, learning and development and health and safety functionality and Time & Attendance Software.  Additional modules are available and include P11D, Recruitment and web-based Manager Access, Employee Self Service and e-Apply, our online vacancy application module.

Our proven Time & Attendance system is supported by a comprehensive range of terminals and will provide you with accurate recording of clocking data.  TeamSpirit Time & Attendance is packed with features including the ability to set up an unlimited number of shift patterns, user definable costs centres, employee costing, automatic infringement monitoring and reporting, and limitless profile definitions for work, break and overtime rules.  For flexible working environments profiles can be set for each employee every day.

Our HMRC Accredited Payroll Software will give you the confidence that you are up to date with current legislation at all times and that your staff are paid accurately and on time.

TeamSpirit HR will provide you with a wealth of functionality to record detailed information on your staff including absence management, learning and development and health and safety.  Access to the system's standard reports and the Bradford Factor calculation will enable you to monitor absence levels across your business, pin pointing the most costly cases of persistent short term absence.  With our web-based Manager Access module some of the responsibility for recording and monitoring employee absence, submitting and approving departmental timesheets and responsibility for inter-departmental transfers can be divulged to line managers and supervisors, relieving your HR staff to concentrate on the more strategic areas of your business.

TeamSpirit uses a single database meaning that there is no duplication of data entry required across the system's core modules.  Subject to security access, data can be added via any module within the system and viewed simultaneously by other members of your team.  There is no need for data to be duplicated across Payroll, HR or Time & Attendance saving valuable time and resources and increasing data integrity.

TeamSpirit software can also be deployed over a Wide Area Network (WAN) which is the perfect solution for large and multi-site organisations that require access from several remote locations. The speed and performance of TeamSpirit in this environment has been proven by many successful installations.

Our TeamSpirit software can also be delivered in a range of ways, as a totally in-house software solution installed on your servers, as a hosted/Software as a Service 'SaaS' solution where the software is hosted on our servers and the cost can be spread monthly and in the case of payroll, there is the option to fully or partially outsource this function via our Bond Payroll Services division.  Combinations of all three solutions are also possible.

The flexibility of TeamSpirit has also proven to be invaluable within a manufacturing environment where many organisations have particularly individual processes and procedures which cannot be met by standard off-the-shelf HR, Payroll and Time & Attendance software solutions.  Although in its standard form, TeamSpirit provides all of the functionality that you would expect from a leading Payroll, HR and Time & Attendance software solution, there is almost no limit to the amount of configuration that can be applied to the system to meet an organisation's specific requirements without the costs usually associated with bespoke software development.  Furthermore any configuration made to the system is not affected by future upgrades provided as part of the software's annual maintenance.

In addition to a wide range of standard reports, TeamSpirit allows users to design their own reports using the system's inbuilt report writer based on any of the fields held within the TeamSpirit database, subject to password security level.  TeamSpirit can also link to third party reporting tools such as Crystal Reports, SQL Report Server and Org Plus.

If you are an organisation in the manufacturing sector who is reviewing your current HR, Payroll and Time & Attendance arrangements and would like to discuss how we could help you meet your requirements, then please contact our sales department on 01376 519413, email sales or complete our online information request form.
