Increase in Process efficiency
Uncovering process variation to optimize employee experience and operations.
In just two weeks, BPM-D were able to collect sufficient data on the time sheet submission process, investigate this data in the FortressIQ application, and create insightful visualisations of this data in PowerBI. This produced conclusive outputs to optimise the timesheet submission process.
The initial analysis of the process data identified two main methods of time sheet submission:
- Recording and saving timesheets daily to submit at the end of the week.
- Recording timesheets weekly and then submitting.
For one office in particular, by filling out their timesheet daily, each employee can save more than 24% of their time spent on timesheet submission. Analysis of the control types used during the process showed that employees from Office 1 were often working on multiple projects simultaneously, making recalling and recording timesheets weekly a more time-consuming method.

- Timesheet Completion
Seeing the full value of streamlined work.
By identifying and visually demonstrating the most efficient way to fill out their time sheets, we were able to drive behavioral change to ensure that timesheets were filled out on time. Creating a regular and consistent routine of filling out timesheets daily ensured that invoices can be processed as soon as possible, reducing the cycle time of the overall process.
