Interview with Mr. Jürgen Voit, Managing Director
Mr. Voit, please briefly introduce your company. Since the company was founded in 1999, we have been developing automation technology for industrial processing, production, assembly, testing and packaging systems. We offer our customers a one-stop shop for all the tasks required in this area, such as consulting, design, planning, production, commissioning and service. Over the years, the number of our customers has steadily increased and we have become a reliable and innovative partner for them. The satisfaction of our customers is based above all on our many years of experience, which enables us to react quickly and competently to customer requests and also to develop systems that can be constantly adapted to individual requirements. How many employees do you have and what working time models do you have? Our team consists of 15 employees. We currently have flexitime and part-time working models. We also employ temporary staff who are paid by the hour. What prompted you to consider using electronic time recording? Before we used timecard our employees recorded their project working times and travel times on a handout. This made both the calculation of orders and the invoicing of travel times cumbersome and time-consuming. This is because we have different hourly rates for travel times. We needed a suitable system to optimize these processes. What specific requirements did you have for the time recording system? We wanted to use electronic time recording to reduce manual effort and thus save time. In addition, it was important for us to create transparency: about the recording of working hours per project and the travel times of individual employees. Why did you choose timeCard time recording instead of another system? The simple project management convinced us immediately.
In addition, timeCard could be integrated into our existing network, which saved us having to invest in new hardware. It was particularly important to us that the time recording system was easy for our employees to use. As soon as we saw the clear user interface, we knew that timecard could fully meet this requirement. The price-performance ratio was therefore right overall. That is why we have opted for timeCard time recording. How long have you been using timeCard? Since May 2015. Please briefly describe how the software supports you in detail. As our employees are usually working on several projects at the same time, efficient and clear project management was particularly important to us.
With timeCard Time Recording, every employee can record their working time by project. This means that everything is precisely documented and we can easily recalculate and monitor orders. Travel times can also be easily recorded, so that payroll accounting per employee is completed quickly. Are you satisfied with timeCard? Yes, because with timeCard time recording we were able to achieve all our goals.
