Workforce & Operational Management

Know your people. Know your costs. Know how every site performs.

02The Challenge

Workforce information should not be scattered across paper, spreadsheets and separate systems

When timesheets, leave, employee records, training, job costs and profitability are managed separately, administration increases and management loses visibility of how work is really performing.

  • Paper and Spreadsheet Timesheets

    Employee time is difficult to collect, approve and prepare consistently.

  • Disconnected Workforce Records

    Employee, leave, sickness and compliance information is held in different places.

  • Unclear Labour Costs

    Recorded hours do not provide a complete view of wages, employer costs and holiday accrual.

  • Limited Site Visibility

    Management cannot easily compare time, costs, materials and revenue across sites.

  • Late Profitability Information

    Site or customer performance is only understood after the work has been completed.

  • Excessive Administration

    Teams repeatedly chase information, re-enter data and reconcile separate records.

03How Pulse Works

From employee time to operational visibility

  1. 01Record

    Employees submit time and workforce requests through a straightforward mobile experience.

  2. 02Approve

    Managers review, approve and lock submitted information.

  3. 03Cost

    Approved time can be connected with configured wage rates, employer costs and holiday accrual.

  4. 04Allocate

    Time, materials, charges and other approved costs are assigned to the relevant site or customer.

  5. 05Review

    Management can review labour, costs, revenue, profit and margin.

  6. 06Act

    Alerts and reporting help identify missing information, compliance issues and underperforming work.

04Platform Capabilities

One connected view of your workforce and operations

Pulse connects workforce information with operational and commercial visibility — far more than a basic timesheet app or holiday-request tool.

  • Management Dashboard

    Review headline revenue, costs, gross profit, margin, workforce activity and issues requiring attention.

  • Approvals

    Review and control submitted timesheets, leave requests and other configured workforce actions.

    Capture employee hours, chargeable time, wages and loaded costs.

  • Employees

    Maintain the workforce information required for day-to-day administration.

  • Leave and Sickness

    Manage holiday requests, leave balances, sickness records and supporting information.

  • Compliance

    Track relevant qualifications, training and certification status.

  • Customers and Sites

    Connect people, time, charges and costs to the customers and locations where work is delivered.

  • Materials and Costs

    Record approved materials and other direct costs associated with work.

  • Site Profitability

    Compare revenue and fully loaded costs for an individual site.

    Organise approved time and relevant workforce information for payroll preparation.

Employees, Leave & Sickness

Give employees a simpler way to manage everyday requests

  • Employee Mobile Access

    Employees can access relevant time, leave, sickness and profile functions from a mobile-friendly interface.

  • Holiday Requests

    Employees can review balances and submit leave requests.

  • Leave Calendar

    Managers can review approved and pending leave across the workforce.

  • Sickness Records

    Relevant sickness information and supporting documentation can be recorded and reviewed.

  • Notifications

    Employees can see important updates and the status of submitted requests.

Workforce Compliance

See what is valid, expiring or missing

Keep relevant employee qualifications, training records and certifications connected to the workforce information management already uses.

Pulse supports record management and visibility — it does not by itself guarantee compliance or replace HR advice.

  • Employee qualifications
  • Certification records
  • Expiry dates
  • Expiring and expired alerts
  • Uploaded certificates
  • Management visibility

08Connected Operations

Connect workforce activity to where the work happens

Rather than reviewing workforce information separately, Pulse connects approved activity and costs to the customer or site responsible for the work.

  • Employees
  • Customers
  • Sites
  • Timesheets
  • Charge rates
  • Wage rates
  • Materials
  • Travel
  • Other direct costs
  • Revenue

09Commercial Visibility

Understand the true performance of each site and customer

Pulse brings labour, employer costs, holiday accrual, materials, travel and other configured costs together with revenue, providing a clearer view of gross profit and margin.
