  • A Kronos customer for nearly 15 years, GATE is a diversified corporation operating several distinct businesses including convenience stores, car washes, concrete plants, real estate, and fuel and fleet services. With Workforce Dimensions, the cloud-native, mobile-first, artificial intelligence-powered workforce management suite, GATE is modernizing workforce processes to deliver an enriched manager and employee experience.
    • Since GATE went live with timekeeping and accruals in 2019, managers and supervisors for the first time have access to real-time labor data – such as employee time and attendance – providing greater visibility into their workforce, allowing them to solve critical business issues in a timelier manner, and ensuring each location is always properly staffed.
    • Starting with its precast concrete plants, GATE will soon move off its paper-based processes and automate scheduling within Workforce Dimensions, powered by AIMEE, helping managers build more employee-friendly schedules, align staffing with demand to ensure the right people are assigned the right jobs, and help minimize overstaffing as well as unexpected overtime.
    • The mobile-first nature of Workforce Dimensions empowers managers to complete important actions – such as approving employee time-off requests – right from their smartphone, untethering them from the back office so they can focus on higher-value activities such as developing associates and customer service.
  • As an early adopter of Workforce Dimensions and the Kronos InTouch DX time clock, GATE is accelerating its digital transformation for employees while embracing the Kronos customer-first approach product development, receiving hands-on experience and providing valuable employee feedback during development of the next generation workforce management suite and future-ready time clock.
  • The InTouch DX delivers a proactive and personalized user experience, surfacing critical alerts and notifications to an employee as soon as they punch, empowering them to take various self-service actions via a 7-inch, full-color, and responsive LCD touchscreen.
  • GATE is leveraging the power of the Kronos D5 platform, which provides a robust, open API framework for easy integration with the organization’s existing systems, including payroll, to move data seamlessly between applications, as well as enable future integrations and extensions.
