Original Press Release:
AirClic Introduces Time Management Application Designed for Mobile and Field- Service Based Companies
Provides Management with the Power to Control Labor Costs by Automating the Collection of Time, Task and Project Information in Real Time
NEWTOWN, Pa., July 24 / - AirClic®, a leading provider of business process mobilization solutions, announced today the immediate release of AirClic Time Management. This is the only mobile application that combines the paperless collection of mobile time and attendance, payroll and project information with a robust time and labor management application, allowing users the first seamless collection and processing of mobile payroll and project data. The new application is designed specifically for field service- based businesses to help them track and better manage their labor resources, replacing outmoded, error-prone processes like hand-written time sheets. With AirClic Time Management, organizations now have accurate, real-time visibility of all activities out in the field, giving them the power to better manage their resources, increase margins and improve customer service.
"Until today, most service industries - construction, home healthcare, repair services, security and catering - had no efficient or economical method of accurately monitoring job status and controlling labor costs," said Tim Bradley, CEO for AirClic. "Traditional labor-intensive and time-consuming reporting methods take days or weeks to reach management and are often too late if a job is running significantly over budget."
Using an AirClic-enabled cellular phone and an attached Motorola AC25 bar code scanning device, or other mobile devices such as a PDA or BlackBerry, the user scans bar codes representing critical job-related information such as time, location, project status, tasks, events, individual and work crew assignments. The data is instantly transmitted back to headquarters over a wireless network and uploaded onto secure AirClic servers.
Until now, choices in the market have been fragmented solutions - either a time collection system without the means to manage the data with an integrated time and labor management application or time and labor management applications with no automated means to collect mobile data and make available in real-time. The AirClic Time Management solution provides a comprehensive 'full-circle' approach. The data collected from the field provides management the ability to make immediate adjustments to a job in order to keep it on- budget and on-schedule. This has a direct impact on the bottom line and customer relationships.
AirClic Time Management includes a time and labor management application so organizations can seamlessly review and adjust time and labor information collected from the AirClic mobile devices in preparation for payroll processing, or, if preferred, the data can be easily exported to an existing back-end system such as a general ledger or payroll system.
The AirClic Time Management system can be deployed in as little as two weeks and needs no additional IT staff to maintain it. With mobile devices such as cell phones already in use by most field personnel, AirClic enjoys the highest user adoption rates in the industry, with training on the system taking just 15 minutes.
"In the construction business, you need a way to accurately track and compare, on a daily basis, a project's actual labor costs against what's been budgeted," said Ron Meschko, director of IT for Allen Concrete and Masonry, headquartered in Florida. "With AirClic, we've been able to immediately see what's going on with our projects and make necessary changes that will keep them within budget."
AirClic Time Management is currently available and may be purchased directly from AirClic. Pricing ranges from $30 to $50 per user and an annual fee starting at $3,000. For more information about ordering AirClic Time Management, please call (215) 504-0561 or email sales@airclic.com.
