With today’s fast-paced construction business environment, manual, paper-based processes and disconnected software programs aren’t the best ways to collect employee timecards. There are multiple moving parts and often cumbersome steps associated with outdated construction timecard methods. So, organizations are losing large amounts of precious time — at a time when streamlined business continuity is so important.
Without digitized, real time workflows that modern construction software provides, it’s easy for mistakes to be made—and when it comes to employee paychecks, that’s not an area any business wants to mess up. Here are just a few reasons why disconnected and manual processes can do more harm than good:
To solve the construction timecard conundrum that contractors have faced over the years, many are modernizing their construction operations, opting to replace multiple systems with an integrated, cloud-based suite of solutions like Trimble Construction One. By modernizing with a single integrated system from one vendor, contractors can connect their people, projects and processes in real time, with instantaneous data flows and workflows between the field and office at all times. This makes once-arduous tasks like construction timecard collection and payroll processing seamless and timely.
In the field, workers or supervisors can collect accurate timecards via simple to use web or mobile timecard software. Once gathered, that information can be synched to the back-office ERP in seconds, where payroll clerks can immediately process directly in the system rather than rekeying data from multiple sources.
This means:
The benefits of an integrated, cloud-based software suite doesn’t just end with timecards. Contractors are taking huge burdens off of their human resources teams by digitizing and streamlining HR workflows and processes as well. One key way? Letting employees self-serve their own HR needs.
HR employees have to manage enough in their daily jobs without needing to deal with the hassle that comes with payroll. With technology like Trimble Construction One , it’s easier than ever for professionals to self-serve their HR and payroll needs. Providing access from most devices, employees can find portals, tools and other online features available to them whether they are in the office or the field. And, as we continue to work through the current pandemic, the self-service approach will also help to reduce reliance on paper timecards and manual processes.
