The contracting department of the Municipality of Svendborg is responsible for the expansion and maintenance of the area's parks and roads. In order for the management to get an overview of its employees and best optimise resources, all staff need to register the time they spend on projects and usage of specific machines and tools.
In the past, employees filled out paper forms on a daily basis which then had to be approved by management. Any corrections were made and data entered into the municipality's resource system. It was a time consuming and frustrating system with a high margin of error. The Municipality chose to implement a mobile time registration system to optimise the process. Today all employees register their time and projects on a PDA.
All registrations are carried out using drop-down menus - simplifying the process and reducing possible keying errors.
Registration only takes a few seconds and the data is immediately transferred to the municipality's central IT system irrespective of physical location of the employee.
Managers can access a website to view all projects, users and registration logs.
On the website, supervisors can open and edit user profiles, job types and activities, as well as approve or reject registered time, create reports and transfer info to payroll and ERP system.
