Typical situation
HR spends a full week assembling the monthly report
Common reality
Data is scattered — across terminals, paper and Excel. At month-end, everything must be gathered by hand.
Personal time report takes a week of copy-paste
Leave requests, absences and overtime tracked separately
Absences and anomalies surface too late
Payroll waits until manual work is done

Workforce demand forecasting
From bookings to staffing need
Bookings
Hotel rooms, restaurant tables, spa slots and event guests — every demand-driving event in one view.
Nominal times
Room turnaround, table service, shift setup — the standard time each task takes per worker.
Staffing need on the schedule
The system computes the people needed per shift — the schedule is built from demand, not guesswork.
Why it matters
The right number of people at the right time — no over- or understaffed shifts.
The schedule is born from demand, not from last week's copy.
High and low season managed with the same logic — the forecast adapts to bookings.
Labour cost tracks revenue — planned, not a surprise.
We know the bookings — rooms, tables, spa slots and event guests — and we know the nominal times:
how long it takes to clean a room, serve a table or set up a shift.
From these two, Tark Times calculates how many people you need every hour and every shift.
Seasons & events
Dozens of seasonal staff onboarded — without a long setup
1. Create a location
Spin up a new location for an event or site in a few clicks.
2. Assign roles
Add staff and give them roles — who sees and does what.
3. Clock in on the tablet
Temporary staff start logging time on the tablet right away — on site.
A festival, conference or seasonal peak brings in dozens of temporary staff at once.
With Tark Times you create a location, assign roles and people
start clocking in on the tablet immediately — without a long setup.
More than time tracking
Sales, projects and automated outreach — in the same solution

The team confirms before sending
Less manual work, fewer errors
Results
A shared real-time overview — on the floor and in the office.
10x faster information flow
Less status chasing, less waiting, and fewer handoff delays between roles.
-60% avoidable mistakes
Earlier checks and better traceability reduce errors before they become expensive.
A working routine in 2 weeks
The goal is not a presentation. The goal is a working management rhythm the team actually uses.
"... I especially value Tark's focus on finding ways to put company resources to better use for growing the business — their work does not include nice-to-have development, only applications that deliver real value."
Marek Hirs, Production Manager at Rait AS
