Case Studies
Discover real world examples of what value KJM can deliver for your organisation.
Stabilising complex mining payroll driven by roster change in just six weeks
An Australian mining organisation brought work back in-house to rely less on external staff. That meant major roster and pay rule changes in UKG Ready, all within six weeks. KJM analysed, configured and tested eight new pay rules, delivering a stable go-live, more accurate timesheets and fewer manual payroll fixes.
Payroll testing automation
Payroll expertise. Amplified by automation. KJM automated data preparation, comparison and exception reporting, freeing our payroll specialists to focus on analysis. Across 14 parallel payroll runs, the approach saved over $7,000 in billable fees, including development time, while strengthening validation and reducing manual handling risk.
Workforce management vendor selection
KJM helped a large, private equity backed field services business navigate a complex workforce management technology decision. Through a structured market scan, 178-functional and 101 technical requirement evaluation, vendor demonstrations, financial modelling and Board-ready business case, we turned a fragmented technology landscape into a clear and defensible investment decision.
Independent assurance that turned complexity into go-live confidence
An Australian not-for-profit needed confidence that its UKG Ready solution was ready to go live. KJM provided independent, risk-based assurance to identify configuration risks, simplify complex access and workflows, and give leadership clear evidence to support the go-live decision.
Scheduling Transformation That Brought Clarity, Control and Compliance to Early Learning
After more than a year of workforce scheduling transformation, UCAQ engaged KJM Consulting to reset the approach and bring the program to completion. KJM redesigned room-level scheduling structures, enabled automated schedule generation, strengthened approval and compliance controls, and improved dashboard visibility in UKG Ready. The result was less manual effort, better educator allocation, stronger governance and a scalable scheduling model for future growth.
From vibe coding to business value
AI can now build working software remarkably quickly. The harder part is turning that code into something secure, scalable and genuinely useful. This case study looks at a real application built in the Microsoft ecosystem, maps how to achieve it in the Google ecosystem, and what it actually took to move from AI-generated code to production-ready solutions. It explores where AI dramatically accelerated delivery, where experienced technology judgement still mattered, and why governance, architecture, UX and business analysis remain critical. See what happens when rapid AI development meets real-world technology discipline.
Governed AI Project Reporting: Right Tool, Right Place, Right Outcome
A governed reporting platform combined Power Automate, SharePoint, Word templates and targeted AI to streamline project status reporting while keeping people accountable for final decisions. The solution reduced manual reporting effort, improved consistency and created a reusable project intelligence layer. AI was applied selectively where interpretation added value, while workflow automation handled predictable processes and governance remained built in from the start.
