Cloud-based digital technologies enable businesses to increase the productivity of their workforce.


Employers of large numbers of cleaning and facilities staff face demanding challenges in a market that is intensely competitive with constant pressure on margins. Many clients now insist upon independent verification of visits, as missed or late visits can undermine client relationships. The burden is further increased by the daily scheduling of tasks, the manual processing of timesheets, and the task of preventing time sheet fraud, over-payments and discrepancies.


Worldwide, some of the biggest names in commercial cleaning and facilities management no longer have these problems, thanks to cloud-based solutions. An electronic staff monitoring system or technology solution for managing remote workforces, such as Ezitracker can help companies cut costs, improve operational efficiency, increase tender bid success rate, accurately measure contract profitability, and deliver a real competitive advantage.


A selection of reports and alerts allow management to check that staff have logged in and logged out at the

right site as scheduled. If an employee is late to arrive or to leave, an alert can be raised and sent immediately to management, and remedial action taken if there is any breakdown in service.


The information can also be sent to payroll and syndicated with other systems to further improve operational performance across the business.
