For
manufacturers, service companies and retailers, managing field
representatives is the key to improving the bottom line. From
poor execution and POP handling to visit and payroll fraud,
unmanaged reps translate into diluted profits; the solution
calls for better supervision. VelociTRACKER™ facilitates this
by giving merchandising management an unprecedented amount
of control over field reps. By eliminating fraud, you reduce
the cost of the payroll.
First and foremost, consumer goods stake-holders need to know
that store visits are being made. VelociTRACKER™ allows managers
to monitor each and every retail visit. Using any combination
of caller ID, IP address capture, digital signature capture,
GPS, or digital pictures, VelociTRACKER™ helps to ensure that
all visits are occurring. Another benefit of having visit
information in electronic format is the ability to export
that information to your payroll and invoicing programs.
Manage Payroll & Billing
With everything that CRC does, we help each link in the chain
in a different and specialized way. For manufacturers and
service companies VelociTRACKER™ can help you streamline payroll
and invoicing, whether you have a legacy system or an outside
service like ADP. In either case, CRC employs the best technology
to integrate right into your system and automate the process.
By having the ability to take the rep hours into your system
automatically, you speed up what had previously been a slow
process and immediately begin reducing costs. VelociTRACKER™
takes that information your reps input and sends it to your
payroll system, eliminating the need for data entry while
markedly improving accuracy. By automating the process, reducing
fraud, data entry costs and reducing float, our tools allow
our customers to really get a handle on managing their expenses.
Our solutions are always individualized, and we can apply
analytics in the form of exceptions or against specific projects
or specific sales, etc. to address your business needs.
For service companies as well, the benefits of CRC and VelociTRACKER™
go well beyond simply streamlining your logistics. If you
are a service company you know that the faster you can get
the payroll hours in, the faster you can invoice your clients.
Without a proven system like VelociTRACKER™, you have to wait
for time sheets to get faxed or mailed in and verified; then
there are the inevitable errors and necessary verifications
and other problems that can bog down the traditional data
entry method.
With
VelociTRACKER™ you can get the data as it is happening, and
you can bill your client as fast as you decide to. For companies
with a large field force, this is an opportunity for tremendoues
savings. For example, if your accounting department has to
process 1000 hours per week of labor- which you cannot actually
bill for until it has been verified and even then usually
only twice a month- you can end up floating nearly half a
million dollars in a month, which is a massive business expense
when you factor in the short term interest rate. This is an
expense that VelociTRACKER can help service companies pare
down drastically, and where VelociTRACKER™ has the ability
to pay for itself many times over.
Invoicing
We just want to be able to bill Nabisco, WalMart etc as quickly
as possible (if we are a service company or a manufacturer).
VelociTRACKER™ employs customization to find a payroll and
invoicing solution that works for you and pays for itself
and much more.
Work smart- not hard. With VelociTRACKER™, payroll and invoicing
exports are exception based, meaning that your employees always
have the ability to approve anything that is outside of your
business rules. Since your business rules are coded into the
system, your employees won't have to sort through endless
data. The system only presents exceptions for approval, streamlining
the process and saving you valuable time.
At CRC, we are experts in data synchronization, and many of
our clients have built-in payroll exports to ADP, Ceridian,
Quickbooks, and many other systems. For manufacturers, service
companies and retailers, deploying technology with VelociTRACKER™
can enable more efficient supply chain management and improve
you bottom line.
