Simple work order management and time recording with Centix Workshop
In a busy working environment, speed and efficiency are essential. Centix Workplace fully optimises both work order management and time recording, allowing mechanics to focus on their core tasks without wasting time on administration. Work orders can be prepared in advance by administrative staff or planners, so mechanics can get started immediately. For urgent tasks, they can easily create a work order themselves.
Centix Workshop provides user-friendly interfaces for mechanics, along with powerful features for administrative personnel. Work orders can be scanned effortlessly, and start and stop times are registered automatically. This eliminates the need for manual entry, increases efficiency, and reduces the risk of errors. The integrated reporting tools also provide full visibility and control over workshop operations.
Benefits of Centix
- Timesaving: Mechanics can get straight to work thanks to pre-prepared work orders and automatic time registration.
- Simplified administration and material management: No manual entry of hours or materials, reducing errors and saving valuable time.
- User-friendly interface: Mechanics benefit from a clear and intuitive workspace, while administrative staff have access to powerful back-office tools.
- Real-time insight: Managers can access up-to-date reports and analytics anytime, anywhere—enabling timely and targeted decision-making.
Streamlined work orders and automatic time recording
Mechanics can easily select the correct work order by scanning a barcode or QR code using a scanner on their PC or tablet. Once a work order is selected, its status is automatically updated and the start time is recorded. Upon completion, the stop time is also recorded automatically – with no further action required.
For example: A mechanic receives a work order to repair a hydraulic pump. He scans the order, and time registration starts immediately. When the task is completed, the stop time is recorded automatically, allowing him to move straight on to the next job.
Thanks to these automated processes, all data is captured accurately without the need for manual input. This ensures that the focus remains on the work itself, rather than on administrative tasks.
Insight and reporting
Managers benefit from continuous, real-time visibility into time registrations, costs, and throughput times. With the standard reports available in Centix, they can easily monitor workshop performance and progress. In addition, data can be effortlessly analysed in Power BI.
These reporting capabilities help managers enhance team efficiency, identify trends, and make targeted adjustments where needed.
