Enterprise eTIME Implementation Services 
 
The Enterprise eTIME Implementation is a set of services performed by the ADP Major Accounts Time and Labor 
Management Group (or TLM) to ensure a quality and timely completion of the Enterprise eTIME system implementation.  
It is provided to all clients who have purchased the Enterprise eTIME product. 
 
The implementation is a 16-20 week remote implementation with a focus on the functionality that directly supports time 
collection necessary for payroll production.  ADP’s role in this offering is to provide project management, system and 
configuration requirements, analysis and application configuration, interface to payroll, training, guidance and direction to 
the client throughout the project. 
 
The success of this implementation approach will depend on the client’s ability to staff the implementation with the 
appropriate resources for requirement definitions, testing and training.  Unqualified or unavailable staff may delay the 
Enterprise eTIME implementation. 
 
Scope: 
• 
Implementation of Enterprise eTIME to be interfaced with Payroll 
• 
Pay policy analysis and configuration of Enterprise eTIME application 
• 
Time entry method to include the web collection methods and/or data collection device methods (Timeclocks and/or 
eTIMEphone) 
• 
Configuration and testing of payroll interface 
• 
Assistance with parallel and first two live payrolls  
• 
Enterprise eTIME System Administrator training (up to 2 attendees) via Using Enterprise eTIME virtual training 
• 
A tutorial for Employee and Department Manager/Supervisor training will be provided.  ADP can provide instructor-led 
Department Manager/Supervisor training as an add-on service 
 
Standard Assumptions and Prerequisites 
Before getting started with the implementation, it is important for both ADP and the client to understand some key 
assumptions and prerequisites on which the implementation is based.   
 
9 
Assumptions 
 
Scope Changes: During the course of the implementation, the client will minimize changes to the current 
scope.  If changes are made, they will be provided to the ADP Project Manager or Implementation 
Consultant in writing.  If these changes materially impact the original scope of the project, ADP may need to 
increase the implementation set up fee of the Enterprise eTIME system 
 
Centralization of HR/Payroll: Analysis work will be performed at one central location.  It is assumed that 
HR and Payroll administration is centralized and that the client operates under the same policy and 
procedures for all divisions and locations.  If HR and payroll administration is de-centralized and impacts the 
project scope, ADP may need to increase the implementation set up fee of the Enterprise eTIME system 
 
Training: ADP will provide training for up to 2 participants plus web based training for employees and 
managers.  On-site training is available at an additional cost.  The ADP Project Manager can assist the 
client if a different training program is required; additional fees will apply 
 
Schedule Cancellations: The client will provide a minimum of at least a one-week notice when canceling 
any previously assigned work schedules.  In the event that scheduling cancellations occur in less than the 
one-week requirement, ADP reserves the right to bill a cancellation fee 
 
Test Environments: The implementation scope is to implement a production environment only.
