How a Biopharma Company’s HR Team Saved 16 Hours Each Month with ATS Integration

In every workplace, there comes a moment when a team rises to a challenge, determined to make a change. For the HR team at a clinical biopharmaceutical company focused on cutting-edge immunology therapies, this moment came when they realized the toll of redundant data entry. Every hire, every update, and every tweak in their Applicant Tracking System (ATS) had to be mirrored manually in their payroll platform. Manual, double-data entry was tedious, prone to errors, and cost them over 16 hours a month—time that could have been spent on more impactful work. Determined to overcome this inefficiency, the HR team embarked on a journey to transform their processes through ATS integration.

Call to Action: The Integration Challenge

The HR team recognized that their inefficiencies weren’t just a frustration—they posed significant risks. Payroll inaccuracies crept in, bottlenecks slowed progress to a crawl, and the company risked compliance with data security regulations. They needed a seamless solution to bridge the gap between their ATS and payroll platforms, which involved both BambooHR integration and ADP integration.

The goal was to save time so the company could scale its innovative therapies without being bogged down by administrative headaches. The team’s mission was clear: find a solution that delivered automation, accuracy, and compliance.

Meeting the Mentor: Flexspring Steps In

The HR team’s search for a solution led them to Flexspring, leaders in custom HR data connectors. Flexspring provided the team with a custom connector tailored to streamline data transfers between BambooHR and ADP.

The HR team worked closely with Flexspring to ensure the connector met their unique needs, including 37 turnkey fields and several additional custom fields in ADP. Custom data mapping logic and automated workflows set the stage for transformation.

Crossing the Threshold: Implementation Begins

Implementing a new system is often a daunting process, but the HR team embraced it confidently with Flexspring’s supportive staff by their side. As one HR team member described it:

“Flexspring's integration from BambooHR to ADP has exceeded our expectations by operating seamlessly without requiring constant oversight. Their team’s deep understanding of both systems solidified our confidence in their partnership with us.”

This collaboration turned a complex process into a seamless workflow, empowering the HR team to stay focused on their mission.

The Transformation: Integration Use Cases

As the integration went live, the HR team eagerly put its core use cases into play:

• New Hires from BambooHR to ADP

With a single click of the “hired” button in BambooHR, new hire data automatically syncs to ADP, complete with all the necessary details to process payroll in real time.

• Employee Updates from BambooHR to ADP

Whether it’s a title change, promotion, or address update, changes made in BambooHR flow effortlessly into ADP. No more double-data entry. Everything connects.

The HR team quickly realized automation’s transformative power. They saved precious hours each month, eliminated errors, and shifted their focus to strategic initiatives instead of tedious tasks.

The Reward: Freedom from Manual Data Entry

The results were undeniable. With the integration in place, the HR team reclaimed over 16 hours a month previously spent on manual data entry. Beyond the time savings, they gained peace of mind knowing their data was accurate, compliant, and up-to-date. As another HR team member shared:

“Flexspring’s seamless integration solution freed our HR team from spending over 16 hours each month on tedious, error-prone manual data entry. You can’t put a price tag on that.”

Returning with the Prize: Lasting Impact

With ATS integration fully operational, the HR team returned to their core mission: supporting the organization’s groundbreaking work in immunology. Flexspring’s solution meant they had more time to focus on employee engagement, strategy, and fostering a culture of innovation. The HR team’s heroic decision to embrace automation empowered them to think bigger and work smarter.
