T he transformed functionality enables businesses to assign trained operators to machines, quickly cross-referencing availability against the competencies needed to carry out a job. On-site employees can capture productive and non-productive time while on-site through their mobile phones prior to obtaining sign-off to help reduce invoice queries. inspHire’s Operated Plant Specialist and New Business Manager, Dane Evans said: Guaranteeing all the necessary features are under-the-hood of one system, we wanted to give businesses the ability to better manage resource, operators, shifts and schedules. Customer feedback has been pivotal in the development process.” “The new module features a new easy to use, graphical resource scheduling screen making assigning operators to equipment, both employees and subcontractors easy. Drag and drop functionality allows inspHire users to plan and allocate the correct equipment and suitable operator to a job,” Dane said. “Included in the operator’s information will be the cards, licences and certificates they hold, ensuring any individual or team allocated to equipment is legally permitted to operate it, and have the skills required to complete the job successfully. You can also specify shift patterns during the schedule planning process, making it easy to see when operators have been working, when they’re next available and the gap in-between shifts. “Timesheet entry has also been completely digitised within inspHire Mobile. The once tedious task of completing paper-based timesheets and Excel Spreadsheets is no more. Operators can now log their hours through the use of inspHire Mobile and to confirm the authenticity of the timesheet, a site foreman can then sign it digitally. Once done users can instantly transfer the data over to the office for review where the authentication can take place and invoices be created faster,” Dane said. “Digitalising the timesheet process is beneficial for hire businesses. The transferral of data between operator and hire desk staff becomes instantaneous, leading to improved operational efficiencies and an increase in cashflow.” n Visit: www.inspHire.com/au insphire’s has released its new and improved Operated Plant module HIRE AND RENTAL NEWS MAY 2019 P65 EQUIPMENT GUIDE TO 2019
