Automating Complexity: How Boehringer Ingelheim Unified Payroll, Shifts, and Reporting Globally

Founded in 1885, Boehringer Ingelheim (BI) is a family-owned pharmaceutical company with roughly 55,000 employees operating in over 130 markets worldwide. They strive to improve the health of humans and animals—for generations. 

Jake Castro, principal systems analyst at Boehringer Ingelheim talks about how it was difficult for Boehringer Ingelheim to find a time system that was flexible enough to support the complexity of operating in multiple different countries, particularly in terms of overtime calculations and varying shift patterns. 

“I’m all about efficiency. And I think the ADP WorkForce Suite drives efficiency… it really has helped to make our organisation a more efficient workplace.”

Jake also talks about how the workforce management technology implementation enhanced BI’s operational efficiency through streamlined time tracking and payroll management. The modern workforce management solution enabled them to eliminate their cumbersome reliance on Excel spreadsheets. Jake emphasised how the right technology made it easier for the business to have the quick and easy transparency they need by having all their data in a central solution.
