Business Challenge

Before partnering with Copper Digital, our client faced several challenges in its workforce management and inventory tracking processes. These obstacles significantly hampered their ability to streamline operations and ensure accurate time and effort logging, timesheet approvals, and real-time inventory updates.

The following were the major problems they encountered:

  • Manual Workforce Management
  • Inefficient Timesheet Approval and Validation
  • Limited Integration with Payroll, Tekla ETA, and Barcode Systems
  • Delayed Inventory Updates in Tekla EPM System

These business challenges further led the company to encounter an accentuated loss of opportunities and revenue due to fallacious forecasts and estimates. To keep up with the pace of business growth and streamline its operations efficiently, the client sought a robust solution to help simplify and enhance its operational efficiency.
