Manufacturing

Built for hospitality and manufacturing

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

With Tark Times

All data in one place. The report is always ready — we customize reports to fit your needs.

  • Personal time report ready in real-time, export with one click
  • Requests, approvals and leave managed digitally in one place
  • Anomalies detected automatically: no-show, long break, short day
  • Data flows to payroll automatically

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.

Schedule with forecasted workforce demand

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

Sales pipeline (CRM)

Contacts and inquiries, offers, contracts and sales orders move between configurable stages on a kanban board.

  • Group, event and corporate inquiries
  • Inquiry → offer → contract
  • Kanban and list views

Project management

Projects and tasks on a kanban board, a portfolio view and time tracking.

  • Event and season preparation
  • Renovation projects
  • Time spent per project

Email automation

Automatically drafted follow-ups and reminders move through draft → review → confirmed → sent.

  • Follow-up with clients and inquiries
  • 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."
