WRC building services manager a fan of AIMS enhancements

Chuck Runge, a building services manager at Wascana Rehabilitation Centre (WRC), got to experience this firsthand when the finance and human resources systems were introduced in the summer of 2024 as part of the Administrative Information Management System (AIMS).     

“WRC building services is on board and happy with the system’s performance,” said Runge, a manager at the Regina facility. 

He uses the finance system to approve many purchase orders for supplies, services, and occasional coding of one-off purchases up to three times a month. He appreciates access to learning resources and work standards to guide him and his team, as well as how quickly and easily he can approve invoices, check status, and confirm the time an invoice was paid.   

“A requisition is created by a supervisor or admin. They make sure invoices are coded correctly. I approve it and I’m done,” Runge shared. “It’s great!”    

In his role, Runge also uses the human resources system to support hiring. He likes the enhancements he’s seeing there as well. 

“After I submit hire awarding, I don’t need to notify payroll, benefits, scheduling,” he said. “I get a note from HR that they’ll process the rest. And I get up-to-the-minute updates from them.” 

Wascana Rehabilitation Centre is a 307-bed facility that provides medical rehabilitation programs for adults, children and for specialized long-term care in southern Saskatchewan.
