Situation

Every parent wants to see their child develop into an intelligent, healthy, and happy adult. However, many Americans have few options for their children to grow physically and socially alongside their peers. One opportunity that can be found in every major city in the country is the YMCA. Founded in 1851, the YMCA of Greater Boston is a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving the over four million people who live in the city’s metropolitan area. As the first “Y” in the United States, it has been promoting youth development and wellness to the residents of the Greater Boston area through initiatives such as organized youth sports and early education programs for more than 150 years.

Struggles and Pains

With over 3,000 employees, 600 of whom work year-round, the YMCA of Greater Boston came to a crossroads when the burden of employee lifecycle management became too much to bear. Sysadmins often felt overwhelmed and irritated by repetitive, time-consuming tasks associated with employee onboarding and offboarding between ADP and Active Directory (AD) for thousands of seasonal workers. Without auto-provisioning and de-provisioning, the YMCA was bogged down by security concerns and terminated employees needed to be manually stripped of access to critical company infrastructure. But, as a nonprofit organization, the YMCA found it especially difficult to find a solution that could fit into its tight budget.

Resolution

The YMCA of Greater Boston turned to RoboMQ, a pioneer in the space of API and data integration. RoboMQ implemented Hire2Retire, an industry-leading iPaaS and Hybrid Integration Platform (HIP), to automatically sync employee profile data between ADP and Hybrid AD for the YMCA. RoboMQ recognized the importance of the YMCA’s work and was happy to accommodate them with a flexible, personalized financial package, allowing the organization to:

Equip new hires with the tools they need to make an impact right away, providing them with a superior “First Day at Work” experience.

Eliminate the monotony of the onboarding process by automating role-based access control and assigning account permissions on a need-to-know basis.

Protect sensitive information and intellectual property by ensuring the timely revocation of privileged access from terminated employees.

Save direct labor costs by eliminating the need for a large system administration staff, all under a personalized, affordable financial package.
