Managing multiple payroll vendors across different countries is a common challenge for companies as they expand into new markets. My client had employees in five countries and was using five different systems to manage payroll. They needed local in-country support to manage payroll and labor law changes, as well as a global HR system. They were looking for integrated US and global payroll and a global HR system that could manage all of their employee data across all countries.

Consolidating Vendors
The first step was to bring all of their global payroll onto one platform. Blue Marble has an aggregated global payroll platform with customized reporting, so they have instant access to their payroll data across all countries. Our single-sign-on capability with Paylocity allows my client to view their US payroll in real-time as well. Now that we have payroll on one unified system, my client can manage all of their employee payrolls with one login.

Global HRIS
The next step was integrating their global HR data. They wanted one system of record for their US and global employees. With Paylocity global HRIS, they now have integrated HR data that connects with their US and global payroll. Their payroll team can streamline processes and ensure data security for their employee data, while saving the team countless hours on manual processes and spreadsheets to manage data.

In-Country Support
Another hurdle that my client was facing was lack of in-country support and compliance with changing payroll and labor requirements. They couldn’t keep track of in-country changes and didn’t have support from their vendors in each country to verify they were in compliance with local labor laws. Now that they have Blue Marble payroll, changes to in-country regulations are automated within the platform. We also have in-country experts to help when questions come up, so they can get quick answers to in-country labor or payroll questions.

Global Consulting Services
Now that my client has integrated US and global payroll and a global HRIS system, their next step is expanding into new countries. Our team of global consultants are helping my client identify what is needed to get started in each country, statutory benefits and labor requirements, and any other considerations before they start hiring. With scalable global payroll they can easily add new countries and ensure compliance for their operations.
