Job tracking software – Synel

Synergy Projects

Task • Optimise • Productivity

Effortlessly track and quantify time spent on specific project tasks and activities, into costs — and optimise workforce productivity.

Forming part of ‘Synergy Workforce’, Synel’s advanced Workforce Management platform, “Synergy Projects” is a job cost tracking software module that helps you maintain profitability by accurately tracking the costs of the various activities/tasks/jobs which your workforce is involved in.

It does so by enabling you to capture and quantify the accumulative time spent by individuals, or groups of employees, on activities/tasks/jobs attributed to specific projects.

Synergy Projects task monitoring software not only makes it easy to see the total cost to complete a project against planned time, but also the time spent on specific individual tasks within that project.

Why Synergy Projects?

Synergy Projects enables organisations to assess time spent and workforce costs through every phase of highly complex, multi-level projects, as well as monitoring the progress of a simple task to make for efficient resource allocation in both cost and time.

Either way, the benefits of tracking time, costs, and exceptions deliver major ongoing efficiency and productivity gains regardless of complexity or size:

• Generate projects made up of single or multiple activities/tasks/jobs
• Track productivity and efficiency by gaining insight on the time spent on specific activities/tasks/jobs
• Realise Return On Investment (ROI) and save ongoing costs by identifying non-productive time within your workforce
• Report and export activity/task/job data to third-party platforms, such as BI or ERP systems
• Analyse data for optimising activity/task/job planning

Any number of cost-centres can be set up for specific activities/tasks/jobs, which can then be reviewed over multiple projects.

When combined with data from other departments/cost centres, managers have a complete overview of the entire operation which is invaluable in making the right decisions to improve efficiency, keep costs under control, and simplify job documentation.

Field Management – optional submodule

Synergy Projects can be supplemented for your mobile workforce with a ‘Field Management’ add-on, which brings activity/time tracking and costing to any field-based employees, such as field-engineers, mobile mechanics, installation engineers etc.

Jobs can be scheduled by a coordinator or manager, as well as field-based employees using Synel’s mobile application – Synergy App – to view, start and end jobs. GPS coordinates can be captured when the employee performs an action, such as checking-in on a site to start a job. Electronic job sheets can be filled in directly on the app and automatically stored in the Cloud.
