ERMCO ECI | Distribution | 3400 | $400M | United States | Grosvenor Technology | Grosvenor GT Clocks | Time Clock (Hardware) | 2018 |
In 2022, ERMCO ECI deployed Grosvenor GT Clocks as a Time Clock (Hardware) solution to address persistent false reads and shift change bottlenecks at its manufacturing sites. The deployment targeted ERMCO ECI plants in Tennessee and the company’s 1,100 production workforce, focusing on time and attendance accuracy for a major oil-filled transformer manufacturer in the United States.
The implementation configured Grosvenor GT Clocks with modular hardware and multiple authentication modes, including a frictionless Suprema biometric reader and a PIN fallback for roughly 5 percent of employees who lack usable fingerprints, with facial recognition available as an option. The Grosvenor GT Clocks installation emphasized an intuitive terminal interface and streamlined employee enrolment workflows to reduce clocking friction and support plant-floor use where greasy or damaged fingerprints had previously caused failures.
Operational architecture included ruggedized terminals designed for manufacturing environments and remote terminal diagnostics to enable feature installation and repair administration without physically removing devices from the plant. The remote interface also provided administrative access for diagnostics and virtual tutorials, reducing the need for on-site maintenance and addressing prior reliability issues such as frequent returns for repair and an incident tied to an IP address change.
Governance and process changes centered on HR maintaining biometric-first authentication while excluding swipe cards to prevent buddy punching, and on managers spending less time on terminal cleaning and hardware returns. Outcomes reported by the deployment include more than a 50 percent reduction in read failure rates and queueing during shift change, elimination of frequent hardware returns, and simplified enrolment and clock in out processing using Grosvenor GT Clocks as the Time Clock (Hardware) tool for ERMCO ECI time and attendance.

King's College London | Education | 8500 | $1.6B | United Kingdom | UNIT4 | Unit4 HCM | Core HR | 2025 |
In 2025 King's College London engaged Optimum to support the deployment of Unit4 HCM as part of a Core HR program covering HR, recruitment and staff management. The work followed an initial rollout of Unit4 ERP suites for Finance, Projects, Procurement and Cash Management, and targeted more than 8,500 staff across five London campuses as the institution reorganized teams and business processes.
Optimum designed and delivered a tailored end user adoption program for Unit4 HCM and the earlier Unit4 ERP build, producing a blended learning suite that combined interactive and passive eLearning, hands on classroom courses, auditorium roadshows, reference guides, quick cards and trainer packs. Training was segmented by role and capability, with core finance users receiving practical classroom sessions while requisitioners were reached through large scale roadshows, reflecting varied IT skill levels and group sizes.
Operational scope included HR and payroll teams, recruitment stakeholders and departmental business champions who collectively selected required modules from a curated training menu, enabling a phased introduction of Core HR capabilities. Optimum ran skill the trainer sessions to transfer ownership of classroom delivery and ongoing maintenance of materials to KCL internal trainers and local business champions, embedding a future proofed training capability.
Governance for the rollout involved full time project staff, departmental stakeholder groups and business champions who contributed to planning and content decisions, and Optimum continued to support post go live activities. Post go live engagement included refresher training for HR and payroll teams and targeted support for the recruitment module roll out, reflecting a sustained training relationship between King's College London and Optimum.
