Time Keeping No Longer a Spanner in the Works for Rotamec

02 June 2011

Claire Pearson, from Cheddar based electrical engineering business, Rotamec, was tearing her hair out over her antiquated and inaccurate time keeping system, which had been costing her both time and money over the years, until her boss came across a more professional solution from Access-to-Time…

Claire Pearson, 37 from Cheddar is an accounts manager for Rotamec, a mechanical and electrical engineers, providing 24hr breakdown service.
Claire, who is in charge of the time keeping system, explained her problems ‘We were having to clock in and out manually using timesheets. People were coming in late and it wasn’t always clear how much time they had worked overall. It was becoming a nightmare to calculate. So we were
looking for a new solution that would enable us to have more accurate time keeping and that would save me a lot of time getting the hours ready for payroll.’

‘We were attracted to Access-to-Time’s Focus PRO system because the boss, Simon Brooks, had researched it. We looked at the specifications and the system covered everything we needed. We had no initial worries, as it was a pretty straight forward system.’

The Focus PRO system from A2T runs in real time and is designed to be as intuitive and userfriendly as possible. The user interface has simple icons and easy-to-use right-click drop-down menus to allow easy navigation through the system and has the same 'feel' as Microsoft Outlook. It can be customised to suit even the most difficult rules and is compatible with existing systems.

Claire explains how the Focus Pro system has helped her with her time keeping issues. ‘Once the new system was up and running, it saved me a lot of time. It shows exactly where everyone is, even when staff are out on business. People are now coming in to work more promptly. This
system encourages them to be more reliable and honest with their time keeping and it is definitely going to save us money in the long term.’
‘The quality of service is also excellent. I feel that we have a lot of support from Access-to-Time, especially when we get into any difficulties.

Once you get used to the system, it is very easy to use. I would definitely recommend this system to others. I can’t believe how much time this system is going to save me!’

Simon, the MD of Rotamec comments, ‘Our time keeping was all over the place and we were losing money, as we weren’t always sure if our staff were clocking in and out when they should be. Once the guys from Access-to-Time had installed the Focus PRO system things completely
changed. We now have a reliable and accurate system, enabling our business to be more efficient and successful.’
