Overview :- Time and Attendance in Construction

Construction projects are inherently complex as they involve many different companies accessing site to carryout work this effects many different facets of the works such as, planned works, logistics, worked and billed hours, site safety, work efficiency. Carrying out this work, efficiently and on plan is critical to the construction process, yet many companies struggle to manage their time and attendance information over the lifecycle of a project.

For large organisation's this problem multiplies when construction projects are in multiple and often remote locations. With many companies involved – contractors, subcontractors other specialists – and often with a high turnover of staff, reliable and accurate information flow becomes a real issue.

Companies have tried a range of solutions to address these challenges and all have proven to have real limitations and don’t offer the transparency or audit trail necessary for a business class solution.

DataScope DataTime solutions provide an easy-to-use and easy-to-deploy solution to help construction companies address these challenges. Our solutions can be deployed across multiple work sites in a matter of days.

The benefits of deploying our solutions are:

• Faster completion times for key processes such as document approvals and change requests.
• More transparency across the supply chain with a detailed audit trail of all movement of human resources on site.
• This makes it much easier to resolve disputes on the project.
• Lower overall project costs as there is less likely hood of resources tampering with site data.
• Improved information management as it becomes much easier to see a snapshot of the resources being utilized on site.

DataScope Solutions

DataScope solutions are ideally suited to the construction site environment. Where short term projects require a large number of personnel, DataScope provides an instant solution. The DataScope system works by linking a number of remotely based Swipe Card Proximity Readers together using GPRS technology. Readers simply require mains power and a safe location.

Access to your data is through a secure bespoke web interface customised to meet your needs, allowing the system to manage large and remote projects. With the DataScope system data is available 24/7, allowing access to data your from anywhere in real time.

DataScope's Solution

A DataScope solution offers :-

Data Access

Data can be drilled down from top level management data to an individuals data. Card Holder information can be shared project wide. Numerous types of reports are virtually unlimited such as:-

Data can be down loaded in your required format this includes txt messaging and E-mail of data to relevant individuals. In addition data can be accessed by mobile phones, PDA devices, and laptop.

Safety

Training competencies can be added and managed by the system, allowing reports such as CITB, CSCS, induction training, worked hours and accident statistics to be accessed across multiple work sites.

Cards

Cards can be printed on or off site, at head office or DataScope will print cards to suit your purposes. Cards can be provided in various formats including, proximity, barcode, smart, magstripe. Cards can have a photo ID, be reused and can be plastic or laminated.

Security

The DataScope System allows you to manage workers across multiple work sites. It can be used to control turnstiles and allow or block access to site. Photo images can be uploaded to the system to present a visual ID to the Security Guard

With DataScope flexibility is our key asset. Card Readers can be moved without rewiring, allowing additional units to added or moved as the site develops, in fact temporary readers can be installed within a few days.

Complete Front-end Solution

DataScope offer a complete front-end solution for managing enrollments for access control systems. The enrollment procedure acquires, processes and manages biometric templates to verify a person’s identity when requesting access at the access terminal. The enrollment process also associates badge numbers and person names with the biometric templates.

Upon enrollment database records can be pushed out to Dative Reader terminals. Depending on the required level of access security, DataScope can provide layered identification solutions by implementing a combination of card, biometric and PINs. Dative Reader terminals are the first line of defense in a physical access control system and integrate seamlessly with any your current access procedures.

Dative Reader terminals

Dative Reader terminals authenticate a persons identity once positive identification has been established and credentials validated, the terminal sends a badge number and facility code to the control panel for determining whether or not a person is allowed access. Access is either granted or denied based on rules established in the control panel.
