CHICAGO, Nov. 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The Chicago Botanic Garden is one of the most visited gardens in the U.S. In 2013, one million people visited the Garden's 26 gardens and four natural areas, uniquely situated on 385 acres on and around nine islands, with six miles of lake shoreline. The Chicago Botanic Garden also boasts 50,000 member households, one of the largest of any botanic garden in the United States.

Since 2010, the Chicago Botanic Garden has worked with ADP(®), a leading global provider of Human Capital Management (HCM) solutions, to help increase HR efficiencies and meet compliance requirements.

"ADP has implementation and project planning down to a science," said Robert Pollack, Director of Finance and Information Systems at the Chicago Botanic Garden. "From our initial discussions with ADP, through the implementation process and beyond, ADP's resources, computing power and robust systems have helped the Chicago Botanic Garden meet our changing needs as the organization grows."

Open since 1972, the Chicago Botanic Garden employs 260 year-round staff members, increasing to more than 600 during its busy seasons. Prior to switching to ADP, the Chicago Botanic Garden used a competitor that wasn't meeting its needs.

"Our previous provider was good for processing payroll, but ADP excels in areas beyond just processing payroll," said Pollack. "ADP offers functionality and allows our staff to access its payroll, benefits, and human resources information anywhere, anytime via ADP's website and its mobile app. For our employees, gaining access to their own payroll and human resources information is now one less thing they stress about--leaving more time for mission-driven initiatives."

According to ADP's 2014 Midsized Business Owners Study, one of the top concerns of midsized business owners is the level and volume of government regulations. With ADP, the Chicago Botanic Garden says it has confidence when it comes to navigating regulations.

"It's good to have a partner you trust," said Pollack. "When we need extra help with our payroll, benefits, or HR systems, ADP is always available with the responsiveness and knowledge we value. The level of service and support is unmatched."
