Time & Attendance Management (GTA) is the blind spot of HRIS projects - often acquired by default, rarely audited by choice. And yet it is a major source of payroll discrepancies, workforce tensions, and lost productivity.
Time & Attendance Management touches every employee, every day. An ill-configured GTA system generates a cascade of payroll errors (overtime not properly valued, compensatory rest accrued incorrectly, absences miscategorised), management conflicts, and invisible administrative overheads.
GBA Connect carries out a comprehensive audit of your GTA - system, configuration, processes, usage, and payroll interface - to identify friction points and improvement levers.
Who this offer is for
- You suspect your GTA of generating recurring payroll discrepancies but have no proof
- Your GTA is used at 30% of its capacity and you want to unlock its potential
- You are considering replacing your GTA and want to objectively define requirements before selecting a target system
- Your managers and employees are complaining about the current GTA (input, validation, readability) and you cannot tell whether the issue is cultural or structural
What we deliver
- GTA system diagnostic: functional coverage, configuration, technical debt, payroll interface
- Process diagnostic: time entry, managerial validation, payroll transfers, handling of edge cases (on-call duty, shift workers, part-time, remote working)
- Usage diagnostic: manager adoption rate, quality of entered data, frequency of manual corrections
- GTA-payroll gap analysis: volumes, root causes, financial impact
- Social risk mapping: non-compliance with company agreements, collective agreements, and the Labour Code
- Prioritised action plan: configuration corrections, system enhancements, process transformation, managerial support
Client testimonials
"Nobody touched the GTA - it was a legacy system that nobody really understood. The audit showed we were losing a significant amount of payroll cost every month through miscategorised overtime. We made the call: keep the system, overhaul the configuration, train the managers. ROI achieved within six months."
- CFO, multi-site industrial mid-size company - assignment carried out by the founding partners prior to the creation of GBA Connect
Success indicators
