WorkTech Time Achieves Ready for Tivoli Certification

Feb. 27, 2012 - PRLog -- WorkTech has announced that its flagship product, WorkTech Time 5.1 has achieved "Ready for Tivoli" certification by IBM.  This certification means that the integration between WorkTech and IBM Maximo® has been validated by IBM, and WorkTech Time is now included as part of the IBM Integrated Service Management Library.

WorkTech has certified its integration of its Time and Attendance software application, WorkTech Time 5.1, with IBM Maximo® version 7.5.  The areas of integration that WorkTech verified include:

WorkTech ensures that workers can only charge time against valid and open work orders in Maximo® that they are authorized to charge time against.

WorkTech updates Maximo® with time and labor charges after time has been approved in WorkTech so that Maximo® has correct labor charges against work orders.

WorkTech makes updating certifications and qualifications easy to do, and has fully integrated the certification management process with Maximo®.

WorkTech has integrated its leave management module with Maximo® Assignment Manager, helping to ensure that schedulers in Maximo® do not assign workers who have approved leave to the day's work plan.

Managers can easily manage their entire work group with a touch of a button, and can easily review and approve time for entire groups of employees.  Once labor has been approved, the transactions update Maximo® with the appropriate labor charges, so that cost reporting in Maximo® is correct and up to date.  

In addition, WorkTech allows organizations to manage absences - both planned and unplanned - with excellent workflow.  Employees can submit leave requests through the application, view their leave balances and attendance policies.  Supervisors can approve/deny leave requests after having the opportunity to view their crew's staff availability.  This helps ensure that too many of one qualification/craft are not granted leave for the same period.  Once leave requests have been approved, the approved leave transactions are sent to Maximo® Assugnment Manager.  Schedulers and Planners can then use this information to assign work to available employees, reducing suprises and unnecessary overtime.

WorkTech will be demonstrating the integration between WorkTech Time 5.1 and IBM Maximo® 7.5 at this year's Pulse show in Las Vegas.  Come by Booth E217 to see this integration in action.
