Need a Clearer View of How Distributed Teams Spend Their Time?

Workforce Visibility

When work happens across job sites, regions, client accounts, projects, or remote teams, it can be difficult to understand where time is actually going. Time Study helps organizations collect structured activity data without relying on scattered updates, manual follow-up, or disconnected tools.

Time Studies for Remote, Field & Distributed Teams

What Your Current Process Is Actually Costing You

The problem is not always a lack of data. It is that the data is often scattered across tools, teams, and workflows:

  • Timesheets, project tools, calendars, CRMs, forms, and spreadsheets may each tell part of the story, but not the full picture

  • Managers and analysts spend too much time chasing updates, reconciling activity data, or cleaning inconsistent entries

  • Activity categories are interpreted differently across teams, roles, regions, job sites, or projects

  • Leaders may not see participation gaps or incomplete data until after the study window closes

  • Decisions about staffing, productivity, resource allocation, or process improvement are made with limited visibility into how work is actually happening

  • Existing systems capture pieces of the work, but they are not always structured in a way that supports time study analysis

The Problems Better Time Study Infrastructure Helps Prevent:

More Useful Operational Insight

Turn activity data into insight that supports staffing, workload balancing, productivity analysis, process improvement, and resource planning.

Less Manual Follow-Up

Reduce the need for managers, analysts, or project leads to chase responses, reconcile updates, and clean data before it can be used.

Better Visibility Across Distributed Work

Understand how time is being spent across field teams, remote teams, sales teams, job sites, client accounts, departments, or initiatives.

Structured Activity Data

Collect time study data in a consistent format across teams, locations, roles, and projects, so the results are easier to compare, analyze, and act on.

Why It Matters

What Changes When Time Studies Reflect How Work Actually Happens

  • Leaders get a clearer picture of how time is distributed across roles, teams, locations, projects, and activities.

  • Operations teams can identify where work is being slowed down by handoffs, administrative tasks, travel, coordination, or other hidden demands.

  • Managers can make better decisions about staffing, workload, territories, job sites, project support, and resource allocation.

  • Analytics teams get cleaner, more consistent activity data that can support dashboards, reporting, and operational analysis.

  • Time studies become more than a one-time data collection exercise. They become a repeatable way to understand how work gets done.

  • “Time Study has been of significant help. Having this system in place to automate notifications and reminders to hundreds of team members without me having to do so manually is truly a game changer.”

    ~Director of Operations, Health System, US-Midwest

  • "We've already seen an improvement in our compliance rate in just 3 months, up from 75%. We are now at 96.4% completion since implementing it and our lowest compliance rate has been 92.6%"

    ~Business Manager, Hospital, US-Midwest

  • "I would estimate I am saving at least 20 hours a month since moving from paper/PDF time studies to Time Study."

    ~Business Manager, Academic healthcare center, US-Northeast

  • "We have over 800 providers we collect time studies from. Time Study has made it so much easier for us to collect time reports for our Medicare Cost Report."

    ~Program Administrator, University Health System, >10,000 employees, US-Northeast

  • "We probably save one FTE from this. When you collect quarterly for 2,000 physicians and have to manually key in and track people down."

    ~Senior Director of Budget & Reimbursement, Health System, US-East

  • “Moving to a more automated system was super helpful [and improved accuracy]. We were moving from a manual, time-consuming process to a much more streamlined one.”

    ~Manager, KLAS Report

  • “Things went pretty quick from the time we signed a contract to the time we implemented the product.”

    ~Analyst/Coordinator, KLAS Report

  • “Time Study gives us breakdowns on how provider time is spent [across categories], and we immediately saw outcomes after transitioning from a different platform.”

    ~Manager, KLAS Report

  • “The outcome we expected from Time Study was an increase in the number of people turning in their time studies. That number has changed drastically since we started using Time Study.” ~Analyst/Coordinator, KLAS Report
