The challenge
Optimus Steel is a leading steel producer based in Beaumont, Texas. Its daily operation depended on time tracking and task planning, two processes that sat outside the company's financial and production systems. That separation produced duplicated work, inconsistent criteria across departments, and incomplete inventory visibility for the sales team.
The solution
We turned time tracking and task planning into a robust platform that centralizes daily operations and connects to the company's financial and production systems. On that foundation we unified payroll and human capital management across Paylocity and SAP Business One, so workforce, operational, and financial data all draw on a single source.
The result
More than 10,000 hours recorded per month and spreadsheets eliminated, with reliable real-time data. Streamlined logistics and dispatch, with shorter wait times and fewer material handling errors
