PeopleMatter Release

CHARLESTON, S.C. – MARCH 24, 2011 – America's Incredible Pizza Company, a Missouri-based, family entertainment franchise, announced today the transition of its talent management to PeopleMatter's Software-as-a-Service system. The company is implementing PeopleMatter HIRE™ in its 10 locations to track, hire and onboard dependable, service-minded employees. The switch to PeopleMatter's platform will ensure streamlined management of complex HR processes, while promoting brand message, and strengthening company culture. Plans to deploy PeopleMatter's additional modules, e.g. SCHEDULE and ENGAGE, throughout 2011 will further motivate and retain Incredible Pizza Company's top talent.

"In the restaurant industry, employee engagement has a direct effect on customer service. We were searching for a simple and powerful system that could help bolster our employee relations," said Richard Pogue, Incredible Pizza Company president. "PeopleMatter provides an easy-to-use software suite that meets our needs and more. We are excited to move to a solution that can develop and inspire our employees with innovative scheduling, learning, performance and recognition tools–-and even integrate with social media."

Delivering a great experience for both guests and employees is Incredible Pizza Company's top priority. When the organization's previous talent management system did not provide the level of engagement it valued, Incredible Pizza Company sought a solution that would help build a thriving culture and energize its employees.

The HIRE module streamlines and automates hiring and onboarding processes. PeopleMatter's SaaS-based product can be translated into multiple languages for a richer user experience. Employers can reduce time-to-hire, turnover and paperwork with HIRE's tracking, screening, onboarding and offboarding tools. These components increase efficiency, legal compliance and candidate quality. Tax credit screenings can save employers up to $9,000 per eligible new hire.

"Our integrated system collectively analyzes a candidate's strengths, motivators and more–-allowing for true employee engagement," said Nate DaPore, PeopleMatter president and chief executive officer. "Incredible Pizza Company's conversion to PeopleMatter's dynamic suite of tools brings an unparalleled level of integrated workplace collaboration and communication."
