Headquartered in Texas, with additional locations in Odessa and Oklahoma City, the company operates with a dedicated team of 50 employees.

Outgrowing their previous payroll provider
Before partnering with AllianceHCM, Champion Hi-Tech relied on another payroll provider for payroll and HR management. However, the limitations of their previous payroll provider became increasingly apparent.
“The payroll system didn’t truly work for me very well. It’s not a hard program. They didn’t furnish as many reports as Alliance and Alliance stores them for us, which has been just great. We’ve been able to push off a lot of the paperwork we had to do as far as taxes, and that sort of thing. And AllianceHCM provides those for us.”
– Carrol Schuller, CFO
Their previous payroll provider lacked automation and ease of reporting, making it difficult for the team to access key information efficiently. Payroll responsibilities fell entirely on Carrol, limiting her ability to take time off and increasing stress on the team.
“…just a lot more automation and ease of reporting than our previous provider. And service is quite helpful. So, me and my team don’t have to spend as much time, you know, it makes life much easier for us.”
– Carrol Schuller, CFO
A Seamless Transition to AllianceHCM
After evaluating multiple providers, Champion Hi-Tech chose AllianceHCM for its seamless payroll processing, robust reporting capabilities, and exceptional customer service. The transition was smooth, with an effortless data migration process that significantly reduced the burden on their internal team.
“I think it was really seamless. Before I came here, I was 20 years in banking and so, a lot of software changes and payroll changes. And, you know, once I saw what the AllianceHCM had to offer, it was a no brainer.”

Increased Efficiency & Automation
Since switching to AllianceHCM, Champion Hi-Tech has experienced significant improvements. Payroll processing is now automated, reducing manual effort and eliminating errors. HR functions such as onboarding are streamlined, creating efficiency across the organization. Employees now have digital access to payroll records, eliminating the need for paper files and reducing HR’s administrative workload.
“…I would say it saves us time, and this may sound small, but it’s really not, it helps us save paper…. everything’s on the computer and it’s easy to access, once you learn how to navigate….”– Carrol Schuller, CFO
Champion Hi-Tech also saw a major improvement in payroll data accuracy, particularly with their Global Shop integration. The tedious manual entry process they previously relied on was replaced with automation, saving time and increasing confidence in payroll accuracy.
“In the past we used an excel spreadsheet and you had to manually type in everybody’s time. Now I push like three buttons and everybody’s time moves over and I’m confident that it’s right.”– Carrol Schuller, CFO
A Strong Partnership
One of the standout features of AllianceHCM, according to Champion Hi-Tech, is the unparalleled customer support. Their team was consistently available to provide guidance, ensuring a smooth transition and continued success post-implementation.
“I’m terrible with remembering all the names, but I don’t recall trying to contact anyone (Alliance Customer Service) that either wasn’t immediately available or if they weren’t I heard from them in a very timely manner and quite helpful. They’re very client oriented, I have to say.”
– Carrol Schuller, CFO
Champion Hi-Tech appreciates AllianceHCM’s responsiveness and ability to resolve any issues quickly, ensuring a smooth experience for their team.
