Dedicated pods
Payroll specialists, accountants, and QA analysts covering 2-3 plants each.
Rollout timeline

- Weeks 2-3: Parallel payroll runs with 100% QA sampling.
- Week 4: Live payroll with variance dashboard and compliance tracker.
What we fix for apparel operators
Attendance chaos during peak season
Casual and overtime updates go missing leading to pay disputes.
Compliance penalties
Late EPF/ETF submissions or mismatched returns trigger fees and director escalations.
Grant and export paperwork drift
BOI/SLPA documentation needs constant chasing from plant managers.
Costing and variance blind spots
Supervisors get numbers weeks later, making line-level decisions impossible.
