The employee management system challenge

Staff records, scheduling and approvals for an operation the size of Dubai World Trade Centre lived across spreadsheets and email, and the internal IT team carried a backlog it could not clear while also running the venue. The organization needed a system built by a team it could stand up quickly, without hiring locally for a fixed piece of work.

What went into the employee management system

Web appMobile appRemote team

  1. A dedicated team assembled for the engagement rather than hired locally: full-stack engineers and mobile developers

  2. A central employee record with the approval chain built in

  3. Scheduling and attendance recorded against that record rather than beside it

More of what we built4
  1. Role-based access, so managers see their own people and administration sees the whole organization

  2. Mobile access for staff, so requests and approvals happen away from a desk

  3. Reporting for the questions the administration team is actually asked

  4. Deployment, with the internal IT team taking the system over

Employee management system results

Workflows that had crossed several files now run through one system, the IT backlog shrank, and the organization got the build at about 70% below the development cost of a local team.
