Uplift Education Chooses Prologic Technology's HR & Payroll Solution for its 26 Dallas-area Schools

AUSTIN, Texas, March 6, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Prologic Technology Systems, Inc. recently concluded contract negotiations with charter school network, Uplift Education, to upgrade the district's paper-based HR and Payroll system to Prologic's TEAMS™.  Uplift Education is the largest charter school network in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area with 26 schools and 12 campuses serving 7,500 students. The TEAMS HR and Payroll solution is expected to go live on July 1^st of this year.

"Many school districts have been held back by systems that simply don't fit today's complex human resource environments," stated Gary Axtman, COO of Prologic Technology Systems. "With TEAMS we took a centralized database approach to the design that provides shared data among human resources, payroll and financial systems," added Axtman. "This difference empowers business managers with a more complete picture, allowing them to audit or forecast in a matter of minutes compared to the days it would take with disparate systems," concluded Axtman.

TEAMS HR/Payroll solution is designed especially for school districts and the unique challenges they face in managing a variety of employment contracts, compensation packages, recruitment, scheduling, certifications and compliance requirements. Unlike most systems on the market that take a snapshot file approach to reporting, TEAMS delivers real-time data for more accurate analysis and projections.

"Our current paper-based system worked fine when we had one school, but with 7500 students this year and a projected 13,000 by 2015, it didn't take long to realize we needed a solution that could scale with us, "stated Diana Meyer, Director of Human Resources at Uplift Education.  "Upgrading to TEAMS gives us the tools we need to eliminate our outdated paper processes, increase efficiencies, improve the transparency of our staff policies, and enhance the overall integrity of our data," added Meyer. "The upgrade will also help to facilitate one of our strategic priorities, which is to hire and support the highest quality staff we can find," concluded Meyer.
