Vaxxine Computer Systems was originally founded as All Systems Go in 1984, servicing the VAX computer. Today Vaxxine sells computer hardware, software, and manages IT for numerous small businesses in the Niagara Region. This requires developers like Jeremy to work with numerous clients spread out across the province. He often works on several projects in a single day and needed a way to track his time effectively and accurately.
Timesheets are boring. They’re the last thing between you and the end of your day.
Timesheets are inflexible. They don’t take into account the variety of projects you work on in a day.
Timesheets are inaccurate. They often get it wrong when you work on multiple projects.
Challenges
Jeremy would work on numerous projects throughout the day but have difficulty remembering the specifics of what he was doing. This would be come a problem at the end of the day when Jeremy would try to fill out his timesheets, missing up to half an hour and causing him to stress over ensuring he wasn’t over-billing his clients.
Goals
- Ensure no leaked time
- Improve timesheet process
- Reduce time spent filling out timesheet
