Get Started

Westcorp is an Edmonton-based owner and manager of revenue-producing real estate—specializing in residential, office, hospitality, and retail properties. With over 35 years in business, Westcorp strives to have a positive impact on every tenant and community they touch.

Working with Avanti has significantly improved the way Westcorp operates—from the accounting team to individual property managers and employees.

Goals

One solution for time & pay

For years, Westcorp relied on an outsourced payroll provider for their payroll needs. The problem was their software had two systems—one for time tracking and one for payroll. The two systems were not aligned, which created more work and frustrating workdays for the entire team.Reduce manual tasks

Having two systems added plenty of extra manual steps for the Westcorp team. They were performing many repetitive calculations for simple processes like vacation requests and payroll.

Easier reporting

Westcorp wanted increased reporting features. Their previous provider’s system lacked the capabilities they needed to access the right data.

Empower employees

Tasks like simple vacation requests were taking way too long to process. Westcorp wanted a solution that would streamline and improve the employee experience.

The Solution

Streamlined pay & time tracking

With Avanti, Westcorp has one unified, configurable system that gives everyone more freedom and flexibility. The solution has had a huge impact on streamlining everything from daily time tracking to payroll.

No more wasted time and resources

Avanti is the time-saving solution Westcorp was searching for. The team no longer wastes time on manual calculations and major redundancies have been eliminated.  It’s saving the whole team time, while also saving money on paper and printing costs.

Report Designer

Westcorp is much happier with Avanti’s reporting tools. Using Report Designer, they can easily generate mission-critical reports in seconds—giving managers the insights they need to make strategic decisions, faster.

Elevated employee experience

In Avanti, workflows like vacation requests are approved almost instantly and employees are able to check the status of pending exception requests in real-time.
