SJ Contracts
Using a face attendance system at construction sites was a big challenge. Team
Truein calmly understood our requirement and provided required customization
too. Truein is an excellent solution.
As on date (Aug-2018) we are using Truein attendance system at our 22 sites. We found that Truein is more user friendly and easy to use. The required reports are also generated by the individual users irrespective of his location.
Challenges
SJ contracts was using a card swipe system along with paper-pen manual syncs for attendance. For a long time they suffered with proxy attendance done by co-workers for each other. Also, the system did not give real-time reports for various sites on one central location.
They wanted to use tech in a way that there was traceability and transparency:
- Get over manual on-boarding of new workers on daily basis
- Allow managers to check their reports in real time for max productivity
- Make the ever-changing staff accountable through a stringent attendance system
-
Get answers to strategic questions like:
• How many workers are present in specific sites at any particular time?
• How many workers are changing frequently on a daily or weekly basis?
• How many man hours are being committed at each site?
Solution
They implemented Truein attendance and benefited from the 30+ in-built features.
- Face recognition based attendance for full visibility
- Blacklisting feature to bar entry of delisted agencies and ex-workers
- Web based detailed dashboard as well as app based reporting for real-time updates on each site at one central location
- Reports for detailed analysis and estimations of manpower needs
Result
- The high traceability linked everything from attendance to payroll and compliance
- The rigour of manual systems was replaced with smart technology
- Contract staff agencies were made more accountable through a transparent reporting
- The admin could easily update records of the ever-changing staff
- Managers at different levels could manage their subordinates through custom reports for themselves
- They estimated contract staff needs accurately
