Tracker is Available in 3 Configurations
Tracker is a real time activity logging application that makes tracking and reporting
the activities of potentially hundreds of subjects as simple as point and click. The 3
configurations meet a wide variety of client needs:
 | Tracker/Flow - multiple
timing devices and unlimited simultaneous subjects.
|
|
|
| Tracker/Group - up to 100 subjects
with a single timing device.
|
|
|
Tracker/Flow
|
Designed to study the flow of work through an organization. It can be
used in patient flow studies in a hospital, customer flow in government organizations,
document flow in clerical environments, etc.
|
|
A Tracker/Flow study involves the deployment of a series of
synchronized PDA devices at strategic points in the process. Each subject to be tracked is
assigned a unique ID that is recorded and time stamped as the subject passes
the strategic points.
Data from all devices is consolidated in an Excel sheet where cycle times, process
summaries and reports are instantly available.

|
|
Tracker/Self
|
Designed
for self logging situations.
|
|
In this mode, a user essentially performs a time study on himself. To
change the activity, the user simply highlights the new activity being performed. Once
data is passed to Excel, the entire work period is summarized in a pivot table for
analysis and reporting.
|
|
|
Tracker/Group
|
Ideal
for productivity downtime and problem monitoring.
|
|
In this mode, a single PDA can track the activities and utilization of
up to 100 simultaneous subjects. Each subject is assigned a unique ID number and when that
number is entered, the current activity (working, break, waiting work, machine down,
meeting, etc.) is identified. An administrator can review the status of the entire
population. Once loaded to Excel, the subjects' names are automatically associated with
every entry. Summaries and charts are instantly available.
