Crew Feature: On-Site Tracking Made Easy
Project managers often face the challenge of effectively tracking the progress of on-site teams. Unlike offsite teams who may routinely update their status on project management applications, on-site workers are less inclined to do so after a demanding day. The logistical and financial impracticality of procuring individual licenses for each member further complicates this issue. But what if there was a solution that could transform this tedious task into a streamlined process?
The Problem with Conventional Tracking:
Traditionally, on-site progress tracking falls on the shoulders of the supervisor, involving paper timesheets or Excel files. This method not only consumes valuable time but also introduces the risk of human error, particularly when transferring data to a master file—a painstaking process often riddled with complex formulas.
Introducing the Crew Feature:
ProjectContexts introduces the Crew feature, designed to revolutionize on-site team progress tracking. Imagine the foreman logging into the ProjectContexts app, entering the day’s work for each crew member, and submitting it for approval—all within minutes. The project manager then reviews and approves these digital timesheets, with the approved hours automatically updating the project’s progress.
Key Advantages:
- Efficiency: Eliminates the need for redundant data entry, freeing up your team to focus on more productive work.
- Accuracy: Reduces the likelihood of errors associated with manual transcription, ensuring more reliable project metrics.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Saves on the cost of individual licenses with a centralized system designed for ease of use and maximum benefit.
- Real-Time Updates: Provides up-to-date project progress metrics, updates of time to completion, tracking overtime, per-diems, etc
- Team member performance allows performance review of non-employee team members that can be used for follow-up projects with those team members.
Conclusion:
The Crew feature in the ProjectContexts app presents a practical and efficient solution for project managers. Simplifying the time tracking process allows teams to devote their energy to where it truly matters—on the ground, getting the job done. Embrace a new era of project management with ProjectContexts, where innovation meets the real-world needs of project teams.
