Through this effort, the City will implement a single, citywide T&L solution for time reporting and eliminate some department specific T&L solutions as well as paper-based time keeping and manual pay coding and entry, to the greatest extent possible. The proposed solution shall include functionality such as, complex scheduling, decentralized time collection and processing, additional earnings calculations, mobility/remote capabilities, and self-service for T&L activities. The City also requests information on an objective infrastructure (e.g. timeclocks, badge scanners, phones) needed for success. The City is interested in the following functional features and information, including but not limited to: A. Complex Scheduling 1. The T&L solution shall support complex scheduling abilities, including but not limited to: a. Varying scheduling types and patterns. b. Labor union rules; and c. Schedule bidding for daily and future staffing needs. B. Decentralized Time Collection and Processing 1. The T&L solution shall support the City’s decentralized, fixed, and mobile time collection and processing requirements across all departments (i.e., the ability to support the submission of hours worked for various employee types and locations). C. Additional Earnings Calculations 1. The City currently uses an exception-based method in which is programmed to automatically pay full-time employees their wages. Manual entries are required to deviate from automatic payment calculations. With the new T&L solution, any manual processing for additional pay calculation shall be eliminated, resulting in improved efficiency for providing or loading department data to payroll. The T&L solution shall have the ability to calculate standard and complex earnings (e.g., differential pay, skill-based pay, holiday pay)....
