This allows for quick follow ups and more robust management from the office and helps guarantee compliant sites.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What\u2019s more, live data of resource utilisation feeds into an easy-to-produce \u2018Time &amp; attendance report\u2019 that works alongside the \u2018Daily timesheet\u2019 to calculate unworked and overtime hours. This gives you deeper insights into how you\u2019re utilising your workforce. It\u2019s the kind of granular data that unlocks clear strategic decision making.<\/p>\n<p>These many efficiencies add up, keeping jobs moving while freeing managers to focus on leadership rather than admin and avoiding the risk of fines and delays.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cRe-flow undoubtedly saves us time on program, which of course saves money as well.
