HRchitect Supports Seamless Company Integration for Allegiance Health Management

Client Background

Allegiance Health Management is a US-based organization that provides healthcare services, operational expertise, and management support for rural and community hospitals across the southern United States. The organization employs approximately 10,000 employees, with 4,500 active employees currently managed in the HR system. Already live on UKG Pro HR/Core, Payroll, and WFM, Allegiance needed expert support to efficiently and accurately integrate newly acquired companies into its existing UKG environment.

The Challenge

Following an acquisition, Allegiance needed to add a new component company, including all locations and employees, into its existing UKG Pro configuration. Although the core system was fully operational, integrating new entities required careful configuration to ensure accuracy, compliance, and a successful payroll run. Allegiance engaged HRchitect to guide the process, reduce risk, and build internal competency so the team could confidently manage future acquisitions.
