Pilot first

NovaTech started with engineering and customer success—about fifty people—to prove operational load on People and Finance. Rippling held the roster; Workcred ingested changes nightly.

When reimbursement workflows stayed inside the product dashboard, AP signed off on phase two without a custom integration project.

Scaling the playbook

The full company rollout reused the same comms templates: short Loom from the CFO, Slack reminders with deep links, and a single office-hours session for questions.

Automatic termination handling when Rippling flagged departures reduced the risk of reporting after someone had left.

Where they are now

NovaTech treats credit building as a standard part of onboarding for US employees. New hires see enrollment alongside benefits elections; most finish before day thirty.

Leadership cites the program in board updates as part of “non-cash compensation” alongside equity education.

Rippling stayed the source of truth; we never asked IT for another one-off integration.
