    Effective time tracking
    for every industry!

    Over the years, TimeWriter has had the pleasure of welcoming great customers from a wide range of industries. We work with architects, programmers, marketers and many more! With our knowledge and experience, TimeWriter is set up so that the time tracking system meets the needs and wishes that apply in each industry. Besides time tracking, TimeWriter is the complete and user-friendly system for leave management, invoicing, budget monitoring and insight into absence. Tracking hours wherever and whenever you want has never been easier with our smart app and desktop version. Read below which companies in your industry have gone before you with TimeWriter's time tracking system.

    Although the work varies greatly from one industry to another, the common factor is simple: measuring how time is spent. A consultancy firm logs hours on clients and projects, an installation company on jobs, and a healthcare organisation on clients and activities. Recording hours provides insight into where time is being spent. That helps to monitor capacity, costs and returns, and often forms the basis for correct invoicing.

    Time tracking also has an important accountability function. Organisations sometimes have to demonstrate how much time was spent on certain activities, for example to the government, grant providers or other funding parties. Good time tracking therefore supports not only day-to-day operations, but also management, invoicing and accountability.

    engineers

    As an engineer or engineering firm, you are involved in advising on and supervising technical projects. Several parties are involved in the preparation and execution of such projects and assignments. As a result, engineers and engineering firms often spend a lot of time on time tracking. Leave management, invoicing, budget monitoring and insight into absence also take time. With TimeWriter's time tracking system you can support these processes. That leaves you, as an engineer, with time to design economical and efficient structures. Read more about time tracking for engineers.

    programmers & IT professionals

    As a programmer or IT professional, you often work with several colleagues on a project or assignment. Programmers and IT professionals also regularly work on projects and assignments at different times. For a project manager, it is important to keep time tracking clear and organised. This helps to monitor budgets and to give clients insight into the hours spent. With the time tracking system from TimeWriter you can keep this data centrally. That way you, as a programmer or IT professional, can focus on developing software. Read more about time tracking for programmers & IT professionals.

    As an accounting professional, you deal with a wide range of tasks, such as processing accounts, filing returns, compiling reports and advising clients. A clear record of your hours per client and activity is essential. You often work for several clients at once, and different employees may work on the same administration or assignment. With the time tracking system from TimeWriter you easily record the hours spent, monitor the available budgets and gain insight into the time spent on each client. That way you keep a grip on your work – and on the profitability of your accounting firm. Read more about time tracking for accounting firms.

    government and non-profit

    Insight into how time is spent is also important within government and the non-profit sector. Employees often work on various programmes, projects and activities, where the available capacity and resources must be deployed carefully. Time tracking makes it clear where time is being spent and thereby supports planning, capacity management and budget monitoring. In addition, proper records may be needed to account for the deployment of employees to grant providers, funders or other stakeholders.

    Time tracking for every industry

    Time tracking that fits the way you work

    Every organisation has its own way of working. Where one organisation works mainly on projects, another organisation logs hours on customers, assignments, tasks or activities. The reason for tracking hours also differs. Sometimes time tracking is mainly intended for invoicing, while in other organisations the emphasis is on project monitoring, budget control, capacity planning or accountability.

    TimeWriter is therefore not set up for one specific industry or one fixed way of working. The system is flexible enough to fit different organisations and business processes. You decide what employees log their time on and which information is important for your organisation. The result is time tracking that is not only easy to use, but also genuinely delivers valuable information for day-to-day operations.

    From hours worked to insight into your organisation

    Good time tracking goes beyond recording the number of hours worked after the fact. The time logged provides insight into how employees spend their time, how much time tasks actually take and how much capacity is available. When hours are linked to customers, projects or assignments, you also gain insight into the costs and progress of the work.

    With TimeWriter you can use this information for various parts of your business operations. For example, you can monitor the progress of projects, compare available budgets with the hours actually spent and gain insight into the deployment of employees. When hours are linked to customers or assignments, they can also be used as the basis for invoicing. This makes time tracking an important link between the daily work and your financial administration.

    Suitable for different industries

    The way hours are tracked differs per industry. An architectural firm, for example, works with projects and project phases, while an accounting firm mainly wants to be able to record the time per client and activity. An IT company may divide hours across various development projects, support work and customers. For a government or non-profit organisation, accounting for time spent on programmes, projects or activities may be what matters most.

    TimeWriter offers enough flexibility to support these different situations. You can tailor the set-up to the structure of your organisation and the way you organise your work. This keeps the registration recognisable for employees, while the organisation gets the information it needs for planning, control, invoicing and reporting.

    Time tracking for architects

    Architects often work on several projects at the same time and spend their time on different project phases and tasks. Design, consultation, drawing work, supervision and other activities can all be part of the same project. Accurate time tracking makes clear how much time is actually spent on a project and how this time relates to the agreements made and the available budgets.

    With TimeWriter, employees can log their hours directly on projects and tasks. This not only produces an overview of the hours worked, but also a better picture of the progress and financial development of projects. When projects are invoiced on the basis of hours worked, the logged hours can also be used as the starting point for invoicing.

    Time tracking for IT and software development

    Within IT organisations and software companies, employees often work on several assignments and projects at the same time. In addition, work can consist of development, maintenance, support, consultation and administration. That is why it is important that hours are not only logged, but can also be linked in a logical way to the right customer, assignment or activity.

    TimeWriter makes it possible to log these different tasks separately. This provides insight into the time spent on projects and customers. That helps with monitoring project budgets, assessing the capacity required and analysing how time is actually spent. For organisations that invoice their services on the basis of hours worked, the registration also forms a direct basis for invoicing.

    Time tracking for accounting and consulting firms

    Accounting firms, accountants and consulting organisations work for many different clients and carry out a wide range of tasks per client. The amount of time spent on a client is therefore an important factor in the costs and profitability of the services. Without good time tracking, it is difficult to determine afterwards how much time was actually spent on an assignment.

    With TimeWriter, employees can log their time on the relevant client, assignment and activity. This produces a detailed picture of the work and the time it requires. This information can be used for internal analyses and planning, but also for checking fixed-price agreements or invoicing work on the basis of hours worked.

    Time tracking for advertising, communication and creative agencies

    At advertising and communication agencies, the work often consists of many different activities. An employee may work for several clients and projects in a single day and perform different types of work in the process. Think of strategy, concept development, design, copywriting, consultation and project management.

    By logging these hours in a consistent way, you gain insight into the actual time spent per client and project. That makes it easier to monitor projects and to assess afterwards whether the available hours and budgets match reality. For projects invoiced on the basis of actual costs or hours worked, good time tracking also provides a reliable basis.

    Time tracking for government and non-profit

    Time tracking also plays an important role within government and the non-profit sector. Employees may divide their time across various projects, programmes, policy activities or other work. Not only is insight into the deployment of employees important here, but accounting for time spent can also be part of the business operations.

    TimeWriter can be set up to log hours on the elements relevant to your organisation. This provides insight into the distribution of capacity and time, and projects and budgets can be followed more closely. When hours have to be accounted for to, for example, grant providers, clients or other parties involved, you have a structured record of the time actually spent.

    Not every organisation fits into one industry

    Your organisation does not have to fit exactly into one of these examples. Precisely because TimeWriter is not based on one specific industry, the system can also be used when your organisation has a different structure or way of working.

    The essence remains the same: employees log their time on the elements that are relevant to your organisation. These can be customers and projects, but also assignments, activities, files, programmes or other categories. You decide how you want to set up the registration and which information you then want to extract from the logged hours.

    One time tracking system, different applications

    As a result, TimeWriter can be used within different types of organisations, from small specialised service providers to larger organisations with several departments and teams. The same time tracking can support different goals: from simple registration of time worked to extensive project monitoring, budget control and invoicing.

    That makes TimeWriter suitable for organisations that want to professionalise their time tracking without having to completely change their existing way of working. The software supports the organisation, instead of the organisation having to adapt to a fixed way of working dictated by the software.
