What do you need in Resource Management software?

Standard Time provides a cluster of features supporting resource management, project tracking, and general project management.  This means you can create projects and tasks, and assign resources to them.  We help you manage projects and resources as you track actual hours in employee timesheets.  The resource allocation dialog below is an example.  Feel free to browse the Q & A topics below, and download a copy of Standard Time.

Q: Do you need project tasks?
A: Does your organization track the status of projects and tasks?  If so, try the Standard Time project tasks tab.  It allows you to create projects and tasks hierarchies.  You can assign resources to tasks, which allows them to view tasks in the timesheet.

Q: Do you assign resources to tasks?
A: Resource management involves task assignment, task scheduling, and resource allocation.  If you assign resources to tasks, you can manage when those tasks start, how long they are expected to take, and how many projects a resource is assigned to.  You can even assign entire groups to tasks.

Q: Do you manage resource task times?
A: In other words, resource allocation.  The dialog below helps manage resources who may be assigned to many projects and tasks.  It lets you see how many project hours they are expected to work each week, month, quarter.  If you assign too much, you see a red bar.  If you assign too little, the bars are yellow.  Correct hours are blue.  Download a copy and check it out.

Resource Management

Q: Do you track actual project hours?
A: Standard Time is not just a resource management tool.  A timesheet is included to permit employees to enter actual project hours.  These resource hours can be used for many purposes, and comparing forecasts to actual hours is big.  Standard Time displays forecasts, actual hours, and percent complete right next to each other.

Q: Do you track weekly hours, overtime, or time off?
A: Does your resource management include tracking weekly hours for each employee, and the overtime they put in?  How about tracking employee time off, such as vacation, sick leave, comp time, etc?  If so, Standard Time supports all these.  You can view a chart showing weekly project hours and overtime.  Employees can even enter time off requests, which are displayed in their timesheet along with project hours.

We hope this has increased your awareness of resource management tools.  Standard Time should be a resource in your organization.  Feel free to contact us for a live demo.
