BUILT AROUND YOUR BUSINESS
Workforce operations outcomes
Define the result you need from staff & attendance management, then review it against real workflows.
Payroll takes hours, not days
Attendance, leave and overtime arrive as one payroll-ready export instead of three spreadsheets reconciled by hand.
Overtime is calculated one way
The rule lives in the system rather than in each supervisor's head, which removes both the disputes and the quiet overpayment.
Leave balances stop being argued about
Accrual, carry-forward and approval in one place, visible to the employee. Most leave disputes are a record-keeping problem.
You can see staffing before it becomes a problem
Understaffed shifts and unusual overtime show up on a roster view while there is still time to act.
WHAT WE BUILD
Staff and attendance software scope
Choose the capabilities that fit your first release and the way your business works.
Attendance capture
Mobile check-in with geofence, web, or import from an existing biometric device.
Shift rosters
Rotating shifts, swaps and coverage warnings for understaffed slots.
Leave management
Accrual, carry-forward, approval chain and employee-visible balances.
Overtime rules
Your thresholds and rates, applied consistently and shown on the payslip data.
Multi-site
Staff working across locations, reported per site and consolidated.
Payroll export
A single export in the format your payroll provider expects.

ENGINEERING & HANDOVER
A Clear Plan from First Scope to Final Handover
Agree on the workflows, review points and release checks before implementation begins.
Access & Data Controls
Roles, authentication and data handling follow the agreed application scope.
Source-Code Ownership
Your repository and technical documentation are part of the delivery plan.
Testing & Release Checks
Review realistic scenarios, integrations and recovery paths before launch.
Milestone Delivery
Validate the work in planned phases with clear owners and acceptance criteria.
FIND THE RIGHT FIT
What usually goes wrong
Review the current problems and the people who need the system before selecting features.
Problems to Resolve
- Attendance in a register, retyped into a spreadsheet at month end, retyped again into payroll.
- Leave approved over WhatsApp, so the balance nobody agrees on.
- Overtime calculated manually and differently by each supervisor.
- A biometric device whose data never leaves the device.
- Shift rosters in a shared spreadsheet that two managers edit at once.
- No record of who changed an attendance entry after the fact.
When Another Approach Fits Better
- A team of five with fixed hours. A shared calendar is enough and we will say so.
- Running payroll itself, including statutory filing. We produce the data your payroll provider or accountant needs.
- Continuous location tracking of staff outside working hours. We build geofenced check-in, not surveillance, and we will decline that scope.
PLAN YOUR PROJECT
Represent the team schedule accurately
Define how shifts, attendance, leave and approvals work in your organisation before building the interface. Different locations may have different operating rules. Make exceptions visible so a manager can correct missing information without losing the history of the original record.
- Who can approve leave and shift changes?
- Which attendance exceptions need review?
- What information is exported to payroll?
A Practical Example
A team member may swap a shift after leave has already been approved. The system should show the resulting coverage, record who approved the change and keep the information needed by the payroll process.
What to Review Before Launch
Test ordinary and exceptional schedules with representative roles. Review access to employee information, correction history and the handover between attendance and payroll.
First Release
Give the team a shared employee record and the priority attendance, shift or leave workflow. Agree on approval roles, correction handling and the information needed for the initial export.
A Later Phase
Additional locations, more complex scheduling and payroll connections can follow once the basic process and responsibilities are understood.
HOW IT WORKS
Workforce system delivery process
A transparent process with decisions and handover planned at each stage.
- 01
Capture the rules
Shifts, overtime thresholds, leave accrual and every exception you handle today.
- 02
Build
Attendance and roster first, since that is where the daily pain is.
- 03
Parallel run
One full cycle alongside your current process, and we compare the two outputs.
- 04
Switch over
Only after the parallel run matches. Payroll is not something to cut over on faith.

01 / THE BUSINESS CHALLENGE
Start with the operational problem.
A growing distributor manages purchasing, warehouse stock and invoices in separate spreadsheets. Teams need to know what is available, who approved a purchase and which orders are ready to ship.
02 / THE CONNECTED WORKFLOW
- 01Purchase request
- 02Approval & receiving
- 03Stock reservation
- 04Dispatch & invoice
03 / PROPOSED SCOPE
Build the right first release.
- Supplier and purchase-order management
- Warehouse stock ledger and transfers
- Sales orders and fulfilment
- Invoice status and role-based reporting
04 / ENGINEERING DECISIONS
Plan for the difficult cases.
Use a transactional stock ledger, approval thresholds and idempotent accounting connectors. Import opening balances into a staging environment and reconcile them before cutover.
Release acceptance & measurement plan
Before launch, demonstrate that…
- Two operators cannot reserve the same remaining stock.
- A rejected purchase cannot create a stock receipt.
- Opening balances and invoice totals reconcile after import.
After launch, measure the change.
Track stock discrepancies, order-to-dispatch time and manual reconciliation hours against the pre-launch baseline.
Targets, baseline, timeline and commercial scope are agreed during discovery.
Built for a clear international handover.
Agree working-hour overlap, written English updates, staging reviews, migration responsibilities and support scope. Confirm repository access, deployment documentation and ownership terms before work begins.

What we review before quoting
- Existing data, content and migration requirements.
- Access to the systems and APIs you want to connect.
- Acceptance checks, handover and support needs.
This does not place an order. We review the configuration and reply with the confirmed scope and milestone proposal.
Staff management questions
Answers about scope, integrations, delivery and ownership.
Can it use our existing biometric machines?
Usually. Most devices export logs or expose an API, and we import from that rather than replacing hardware you have already paid for. We confirm your specific model during scoping.
Does it do payroll?
It produces payroll-ready data — attendance, approved leave, overtime — in the format your payroll provider expects. Statutory calculation and filing stay with your provider or accountant, which is where the liability belongs.
Can staff check in from their phone?
Yes, with an optional geofence so check-in only registers inside the site. Photo capture on check-in is available where you need it, and we will tell you where that is likely to create a consent issue.
Will it track employees' location all day?
No. Check-in and check-out register a location at that moment; there is no continuous tracking. We decline that scope — it is a consent and trust problem, not a feature.
