Scheduling

Ramp up for mass production.

Schedule just the right amount of hands-on help, whatever your team size or structure, all while minimizing labor cost and complying with your local rest and break laws.

  • Build the schedule that works and reuse it
  • Your team views shifts from anywhere and gets reminders
  • Post available shifts and let teammates swap
  • Stay ahead of unexpected schedule changes

Time clock

No bottleneck at the clock-in.

Track exactly how long team members work and sync with payroll so paychecks and reports are right every time.

  • Employees clock in and out from their phones or a central kiosk
  • GPS geofencing verifies teammates are on site when they clock in
  • See who is on time, who is late, and who no-call no-shows
  • Use what you find to optimize next week

Communication

Hear more ten-fours.

Streamlined messaging keeps the whole floor up to speed.

  • Send private and group messages
  • Create custom newsfeed pages
  • Deliver company-wide announcements from your desktop or phone
  • Stay in control of the message while everyone stays in the loop

Labor costs

Keep your cost of labor lean.

Labor is one of the largest expenses in a manufacturing or logistics organization. Track hours worked and set the most efficient schedule for each crew.

  • See time on the clock and potential overtime as you schedule
  • Plan ahead of payroll instead of reacting to it
  • Compare labor cost to projected and actual revenue
  • Get more out of every dollar you spend on coverage

Task management

Set the routine, get all hands on deck.

Reduce confusion by handing out clear assignments before the line starts.

  • Add tasks specific to any employee or shift
  • Create a task from scratch or use a template for recurring routines
  • Everyone knows what to do
  • Fewer stoppages waiting on instructions

Spend less time scheduling

More time on your customers.

The details that keep a multi-site production schedule accurate and compliant.

Every location from one place

Manage crews across job sites from the office, on site, or on the road. Whether you have one crew working or a hundred, you can see who is working, where they are, and what they are doing, with clear scheduling and communication keeping everyone focused.

Compliance and real rest

Stop guessing whether the schedule fits local labor law. View overtime hours and account for holiday pay as you build, and give teammates enough time between shifts with clopening alerts and breaks built into the shift. Anything out of compliance or needing your attention gets flagged.

Timesheets straight into payroll

Catch payroll and reporting problems before they happen and stop calculating time on the clock by hand. Track labor cost against your cash flow, sync timesheets with your payroll software, or export reports down to the minute.
