Time’s Reseller Network and
Their End-Users
CARMEL, IN – March 24, 2011
– Ingersoll Rand Security
Technologies, a leading
global provider of hand
geometry-based Schlage
HandPunch biometric
terminals for collecting
time and attendance
information, announced today
that it has signed
ADI Time, LLC of Warwick, RI
as a business partner to
purchase Schlage Biometrics’
full product line, including
F-Series and the new GT-400
HandPunch terminals,
directly. ADI Time is
a leading vendor of
cloud computing time
management software services
(SaaS) for
small-to-mid-sized
businesses and divisions of
large enterprises.
This new direct
relationship will foster
synergy between two industry
leaders to help increase
opportunities for ADI Time
resellers to provide
increased solutions to their
time and attendance and
workforce management
customers.
“To compliment our
popular SaaS subscription
service and licensed time
and attendance software, ADI
Time was seeking a strong
alliance with a leading
provider of biometric
terminals in order to
address the needs of our
partner and user
communities,” explains ADI
Time CEO John DiPippo.
“Partnering with
Ingersoll Rand provided us
with both a uniquely
differentiated product via
Schlage’s hand geometry
readers, and a direct
relationship with an
organization that has the
size, product breadth, and
industry leadership to
ensure we are in the best
position to delight our
customers and maximize
market exposure.”
“ADI
Time has been successful
providing payroll and human
relations managers with our
Schlage HandPunch solutions
for over a dozen years,”
adds Jon Mooney, Ingersoll
Rand Security Technologies
general manager, Schlage
biometrics.
“They are exactly the
type of partner that can
help organizations achieve
new levels in time and
attendance and workforce
management data collection
by leveraging the Schlage
GT-400 HandPunch reader.”
The Schlage GT-400 is the
first of a new generation of
terminals created
specifically for time and
attendance and workforce
management applications. The
smaller, improved Schlage
GT-400 HandPunch terminal
uses the size and shape of
each employee's hand for
verification, making it
fast, efficient and easy to
use. With a large LCD screen
and programmable soft keys,
perfect for interactive
workforce management kiosks,
the HandPunch GT-400
provides a conduit for
employee communication right
at the terminal. Its Linux
platform offers multiple
time and
attendance/workforce
management software
developers with easy
interface options.
“Using biometrics to
automate the collection of
time and attendance data can
reduce costly buddy
punching, a problem when one
employee clocks in or out
for another, manual review
and correction of time data,
and payroll error,”
emphasizes DiPippo.
“Millions of people
throughout the world clock
in and out of work daily
with a hand geometry reader.
In conjunction with
our software, the HandPunch
delivers a payback very
rapidly.”
