MISSION KAIZEN
TOP KAIZENS & BENEFITS
Payroll Reports
Concern:
Generating various reports from payroll software while running final payroll was time-consuming and employees had to sit idle while the reports were running.
Kaizen:
Automated the report generation activity with the help of QX Software team, to run the reports in the background.
Results of Kaizen:
Reduction in TAT by 95% and saved approx. 72 hours per month.
Pay Slip Calculator
Concern:
The team receives Income tax, National Insurance and Pension pay-related queries through calls and emails which consumes a lot of time to resolve manually.
Kaizen:
Prepared advanced excel based calculator where the team only has to input the required basic information while everything gets calculated automatically.
Results of Kaizen:
Reduction in TAT by 88%, saved approx. 65 hours per month and improved accuracy.
Accounts Finalisation
Concern:
Manually preparing three CSVs (ETL, TTL & JNL) for accounts finalisation and then uploading them to the software consumes a lot of time and is prone to errors.
Kaizen:
Automated the process of preparing CSVs using Excel Macro.
Results of Kaizen:
Saved 275 hours monthly and improved accuracy.
payment accuracy

Results of Kaizen:
100% elimination of human errors.
