The Challenge

Team Elmer’s had a vision of bringing thousands of daily data entries from their crews into a mobile field app that centralized data for easy reporting and better efficiency. 

Taking a phased approach, Team Elmer’s and SPARK identified opportunities to improve their daily time entry, production reporting, and job data collection. This initial solution also needed system integrations to streamline data entry across their existing back-office software.

The Solution

SPARK’s product manager, lead developer, and UX design team worked closely with Team Elmer’s managers and executives to plan the initial scope that could be adopted incrementally across their multiple divisions.

With scalability in mind, SPARK built a robust time entry application that seamlessly integrates with Team Elmer’s HR software, Payroll software, and ELD software.

Managers now use a web interface to quickly review and approve employee timesheets. Payroll can sync employee timesheets with Spectrum (accounting system) with a click of a button.

Team Elmer’s loves the quick access to production reports, while their employees continue to adopt the new mobile timekeeping app with positive reviews!
