ADP’s Enterprise Activities extends the power of Enterprise eTIME® workforce management software by providing the tools to track activity status, improve efficiency, and better manage labor costs. It provides your managers with enhanced visibility into what employees do every minute they are at work, including real-time access to details of what an employee worked on during the day, how many units he produces, and his production rate against standards. It reconciles the detailed labor hours with time and attendance hours to ensure integrity with actual hours worked.

Simple, Point-and-Click Operation Simplifies Activity Tracking

Timely reporting on labor tracking data has never been easier. With one click, your managers can now quickly and efficiently see: 

• When an activity was scheduled to start or be completed, whether it was revised, and when it actually started or stopped
• The current status of an activity – including percentage complete, active, or on hold
• Who is working on an activity – and how long they’ve been working on it 
• How many pieces have been completed for an activity 
• How many pieces need to be reworked – and why
• The standard time to complete an activity – and how efficient are the people working
  on that activity 
• How much time is spent setting up an activity versus doing the activity
• Which department, work center, or product line is doing the activity

By capturing detailed labor tracking information and calculating the efficiency of these workforce activities, managers can pinpoint areas of improvement, make labor resource changes, and fully utilize labor resources before inefficiencies can affect production. With easy access to real-time labor tracking information, your managers can better respond to customer requests for project status and make adjustments to meet their production goals. Additionally, with historical reporting, you can use actual labor results to define standards more accurately.

Real-Time Labor Validation Helps Prevent Unauthorized Work

Enterprise Activities provides the ability to collect labor information in real time, providing managers with up-to-the-minute information regarding the status of activities. With this information, decisions regarding the most efficient distribution of labor resources can be made proactively before constraints affect labor productivity. Activity validation helps ensure that users are provided with immediate feedback on the status of an activity and cannot start activities that have been put on hold or have already been completed.

Centralized Reporting Enhances Decision Making

Enterprise Activities can be implemented through a single database, eliminating department or plant-based solutions that hinder or make consolidated labor reporting and sharing of information difficult. Enterprise Activities supports separate plant configurations and applies specific activity mapping and transactions while retaining a single database for efficient, consolidated reporting.

Enterprise eTIME Integration Saves Time, Reduces Errors

Because it is integrated tightly with Enterprise eTIME workforce management software, Enterprise Activities can effectively allocate hours to both direct and indirect labor accounts and ensure that time and labor are reconciled at every step. Enterprise eTIME QuickNavs save managers time by enabling them to search for employees according to the information they require, such as employees working on a specific activity.
