About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals.

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on:

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

New Study Demonstrates Benefits of Paycom’s Automated, Single Software

Paycom Software, Inc. (NYSE: PAYC) (“Paycom”), a leading provider of comprehensive, cloud-based human capital management software, revealed findings from a study conducted by Forrester Consulting on the potential benefits gained through Paycom’s full-solution automation and single-database software.* According to the Forrester Total Economic Impact (TEI) study, a composite organization representative of interviewed Paycom clients experienced a three-year 362% return on investment (ROI).

Paycom’s software is built upon a true single database to streamline performance and communication with a continuous and automated flow of workforce data. This design helps maintain data integrity and allows Paycom’s HCM tools to work together for an automated, uninterrupted management of the employee life cycle.

“Paycom is the most automated solution in the industry, and our clients frequently attest to that,” said Chad Richison, Paycom founder and CEO. “By prioritizing full-solution automation, we are creating value, driving efficiency and allowing our clients to achieve even greater ROI.”

According to the study, the composite organization experienced several advantages following the implementation of Paycom, including:

  • over 45% in total time saved by HR annually
  • an 80% reduction in time spent on compliance work
  • $300,000 annual savings due to a single database allowing better data visibility and analytics

A director of HR in the entertainment industry interviewed for the study told Forrester, “The ROI for Paycom is definitely there, given the amount of time that we save by having one solution to manage versus having different integrations. This helps us from an HR-staffing perspective.”

In a separate recent study of HR leaders nationwide, Forrester found companies use an average of 6.17 HCM providers — with 80% of respondents indicating disparate or duplicate employee data negatively impacts their ability to create accurate workforce reports. In contrast, the Forrester TEI study found Paycom’s single database can provide cleaner data and robust analytics, all in real time, which may enable added business benefits such as company growth and cost savings.

A chief HR officer in the consumer goods industry interviewed for the study told Forrester, “The analytics provided with Paycom have really helped at the business strategy level and let us understand where our turnover is, where cost savings can be seen, and where we should be investing more.”

Paycom commissioned the Forrester TEI study, The Total Economic Impact™ Of Paycom: Cost Savings And Business Benefits Enabled By Paycom, to examine the potential return on investment businesses may realize by deploying Paycom’s automated, single-database software across the entire employee life cycle. For the purposes of this study, Forrester aggregated the experiences of the interviewees and combined the results into a single composite organization of 500 employees, including six HR employees and 40 managers. The composite organization also uses various Paycom tools across all five suites and, prior to deploying Paycom, used a legacy provider that lacked a unified solution.
