San Francisco-based cloud ERP provider FinancialForce and human capital management (HCM) giant ADP of Roseland, New Jersey have combined efforts to upgrade payroll and HCM capacity for FinancialForce’s cloud ERP service and its customer roster.

The partnership benefits clients and brings top-of-the-line HCM to many who already employ ADP for payroll, according to spokespersons. The enterprise was revealed at FinancialForce’s yearly conference in Las Vegas by FinancialForce CMO Fred Studer and ADP president of national account services Dave Imbrogno.

“We are excited to offer FinancialForce customers the added benefits of ADP’s human capital management solutions to complement the company’s leading financial management and professional services automation applications,” ADP president of global enterprise solutions Ed Flynn said.

FinancialForce CEO Tod Nielsen added that HCM is crucial to ERP function, especially for service-oriented enterprises; while LiquidHub’s CIO Paul Harewood praised the concept, stating that it would benefit companies focused on services and calling it “a win-win situation for businesses that are committed to winning in the new services economy."

Cloud ERP (enterprise resource planning) utilizes cloud computing platforms and services to enhance flexibility in procedural transformation for businesses. FinancialForce plans to fully engage with customers to assist with the transition to ADP-enhanced services.
