Time Study App Prototype
Imagine you're an engineer at PB&J Manufacturing Co. and you oversee the sandwich making department. Sarah routinely produces more than Joe, Albert and Jackie. Why is that? What is Sarah doing that the others aren't?
So you conduct a time study to measure each person during different shifts. If you do it the old-fashioned way (with a stopwatch and a clipboard) you end up with a stack full of paper and the task of entering all that data into your spreadsheet of choice for analysis - What a headache!
It's reasonable to guess that your time is better spent solving problems - not re-recording data. That's why we made Timely, our Time Study App. It replaces the step of manually recording data just to turn around and type it all up.
