Journey of Success - Growth of a decade with client support
Client: America Online, Dulles, VA
Project: PeopleSoft HRMS 7.5 to 8.0
Comter was hired to support the Functional HRMS team in their day to day reporting, benefits feed, production support, trouble shooting and reporting support during re-organization. We were also involved in the upgrade of their operational 7.5 reports/queries from 7.5 to 8.0.
Client: Cerner Corporation, Kansas City, MO
Project: PeopleSoft HRMS and Financials 7.5 to 8.0

Cerner utilized Comter in lieu of PeopleSoft Consulting resources due to our greater success in troubleshooting complex problems related to the upgrade. Comter originally upgraded Cerner from version 7.5 to 8.0.
Client: DynCorp, Reston, VA
Proejct: PeopleSoft HRMS & Financials 7.5 & 8.0
For DynCorp, one of the largest Federal contractors, Comter Systems designed and developed a complete Time and Labor (T&L) system in PeopleSoft. The T&L system was designed to meet the requirements for business rules and to meet the auditing requirements of the Defense Contracting Audit Agency (DCAA). Comter Systems successfully completed the engagement on time and within budget. Comter Systems was selected as the sole implementation partner for the ongoing support of DynCorp's HR and Financial systems, including development of new applications, training users, and development of user documentation. Comter Systems helped in the evaluation of various auxiliary packages to work with the ERP system including a Web based T&L system, an EDI package to work with AP module, and an Open Enrollment system. Comter Systems then integrated DynCorp's HR and Financial systems with the new Time and Labor System.
One of the key requirements of DynCorp was strict internal controls on the system and we had to develop major customizations to limit the ability of the user to change data once the monthly closings are done. We created customizations that enforced an audit trail once the data is validated for any changes. In 2002, the system was found compliant with Sarbanes-Oxley act per government audit because of the internal controls developed by Comter implementation team.
Comter Systems assisted DynCorp in a PeopleSoft Upgrade for DynCorp's HR and Financial systems. The tools used for the PeopleSoft upgrade and development were PeopleTools 7.5, SQR, Query, Crystal Reports, COBOL. We also assisted in establishing the infrastructure necessary for another PeopleSoft upgrade to version 8.0. Comter Systems has further assisted in the infrastructure implementation by providing training for the users of the new Payroll system and training DynCorp's developers on the new tools.
After Comter successfully completed engagements supporting DynCorp's HRMS, Financials, Time & Labor modules, DynCorp selected Comter Systems to evaluate their infrastructure and recommend and implement a long-term plan. Comter Systems infrastructure group performed a complete evaluation of all systems, and recommended a phased strategy to move DynCorp towards a scalable IT infrastructure. By implementing Comter System's recommendations, DynCorp realized tremendous performance enhancements, developed a policy for IT support, streamlined its IT department, and established a more efficient organizational structure.

Project: PeopleSoft HRMS v. 7.5
The Nextel Annual Merit, Bonus and Stock Option Program required review and action for all active employees (initial number at 18,113). Data was extracted from the PeopleSoft HRMS version 7.5 system and populated in a spreadsheet. This program resembles PeopleSoft panels; field level help; utilizes push technology to populate values from tables when the employee's grade and/or location changes; calculates pool totals, usage and available amounts; audit check at employee level to identify key data fields not populated; and an employee summary panel for printing a confirmation form. The on-line form has received very positive feedback from the user community.
