Truein eliminated proxy attendance & traceability issues at SJ Contracts

SJ Contracts

SJ Contracts is a name construction companies reckon with. They provide solution-based construction services that add value to industrial, commercial, and residential projects. Established in Pune in 1990, they have nearly 80 active sites, and new locations are added from time to time. Apart from their office staff, they deal with a lot of unorganized sector labor.

Initial Brief

What was required

SJ contracts used a swipe card system along with paper-pen manual syncs for attendance. For a long time, they faced the problem of proxy attendance. Also, their attendance system did not provide them with real-time reports. They had multiple sites, and since there were no centralized controls, attendance tracking was tedious.

Challenges

What we solved

  • Find a solution to the process of manual on-boarding of new workers daily
  • Allow managers to check attendance reports in real-time to maximize productivity
  • Make their ever-changing staff accountable through a stringent attendance system
  • Get answers to strategic questions like:
    • How many workers are at a specific site at any particular time?
    • How many workers are changing frequently on a daily or weekly basis?
    • How many person-hours are being committed at each site?

Solution

How We created Opportunity

  • Face recognition based attendance for complete visibility
  • Self onboarding feature that makes the registration process of new workers fast and hassle-free
  • Blacklisting feature to bar entry of delisted agencies and ex-workers
  • Web-based detailed dashboard as well as app-based reporting for real-time updates on each site at one central location
  • Reports for detailed analysis and estimations of staffing needs

How it Worked

Results

What was achieved in the end

  • The high traceability linked everything from attendance to payroll and compliance
  • The rigor of manual systems was replaced with intelligent technology
  • Contract staff agencies were made more accountable through transparent reporting
  • Managers at different levels could manage their subordinates through custom reports
  • Contract staff needs could be estimated accurately

We have been using the Truein attendance system at our 80 sites for over 10,000 staff since August 2018. Before Truein, using a time and attendance system at our construction sites was a big challenge. It is an excellent solution. We’ve found it to be very user-friendly and easy to use. Truein has built-in customization options and provides multiple real-time reports. Individual users can quickly generate the required reports, irrespective of their location.
