Touchscreen time capture

QLD truck body builders — Empower on workshop touchscreens replaced manual time sheets and cut ~20% of the labour time out of every job.

The end of manual time sheets

Deana Thornton, Administration Management — "Previously we used the archaic system of manual time sheets. We invested in technology to move on from that." Touchscreens on the workshop floor replaced paper end-of-day guesswork.

20% out, measured

"Using touchscreens and Empower Software our labour times on jobs is 20% less." A conservative, honest number — measured from real data, not a promise.
