Summary
As we have grown, data and organization have become massively important. These projects support this.
Daily Shift Report - This custom software will facilitate time entry into our ERP and data analysis. It will help us find out things like how our shifts are performing relative to historical performance, our top reason codes for downtime, and our most productive employees and supervisors.
Velocity Scheduling - We are making an electronic version of the scheduling system we did last year. It has controls and metrics to increase our jobs' "velocity", or how fast they move through our shop. https://www.velocityschedulingsystem.com/

Description (French)
Au fur et à mesure de notre croissance, les données et l’organisation ont pris une importance considérable. Ces projets s’inscrivent dans cette optique. Rapport d’équipe quotidien — Ce logiciel personnalisé facilitera la saisie des heures dans notre ERP et l’analyse des données. Il nous aidera à découvrir des choses telles que les performances de nos équipes par rapport aux performances historiques, les codes de raison les plus courants pour les temps d’arrêt, et nos employés et superviseurs les plus productifs. Velocity Scheduling — Nous réalisons une version électronique du système de planification que nous avons mis en place l’année dernière. Il comporte des contrôles et des mesures visant à accroître la vélocité de nos travaux, ou leur rapidité d’exécution dans notre atelier. https://www.velocityschedulingsystem.com/
