Client Success
Unicorn HRO is bringing real solutions to a broad range of challenges for our clients around the world. The following case studies are a testament to the success of our people and products in today’s complex business environment.
Gill St. Bernard's School
Challenge: The institution’s existing solution lacked the flexibility it required to manage day-to-day, basic functions and was unable to support the complexities of a school payroll.
Solution: Gill St. Bernard’s School is using iCON, a fully integrated Web-based, Software as a Service (SaaS) solution from Progress® Application Partner Unicorn HRO.
Benefit: Productivity has significantly improved because most of the processes the HR department used to perform manually are now done so in the system automatically. And with all of its information now centralized, the school has greater visibility and access to information.
Day Pitney Law Firm
Challenge: In 2007, two prominent East Coast law firms, Day, Berry & Howard and Pitney Hardin merged to form Day Pitney LLP. Today, Day Pitney employs over 350 attorneys and approximately 350 support staff in nine offices throughout Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, and Washington DC. Day Pitney receives RFPs on a daily basis, as well as other internal report requests. These requests ask for complex historical information, but due to the time sensitive nature of these reports, efficiency is of utmost importance. Day Pitney's increased size also led to increased demand for RFPs. Day Pitney reached out to Unicorn HRO, a company with a reputation for unmatched customer retention, service, and technological expertise. What attracted Day Pitney to Unicorn was their ability to create tailored human resources, benefits, and payroll solutions that could meet the unique requirements of the new larger law firm.
Solution: After a thorough assessment of Day Pitney’s requirements, Unicorn HRO implemented their iCON solution. The iCON system allows clients to easily set up and configure their payroll, benefits, and HR workflows in order to automate these processes. The benefit of this system for Day Pitney is the ease of access in regards to real-time employee data. The secure iCON system generates instantaneous reports and Dashboards based on queries made by employees with access.
- Some of Day Pitney’s criteria for reports and Dashboards are:
- Partner details on rank, type of partner, gender, ethnicity, employment status, length of service, and practice area
- Firm statistics on hiring and promotions throughout the firm
- Firm-wide pro bono hours by attorney and practice group
Benefit: Unicorn's iCON system gives Day Pitney instantaneous reports and dashboards critical to its business. These reports and dashboards allow Day Pitney to gain important insight into its business and respond quickly to RFPs.
