Opportunity Statement Opportunity Statement – Nearly every step of the timesheet process is error prone, disorganized, and a huge waste of time. With a few simple updates to our processes and the implementation of the Timesheet Tool (which we already have), we can resolve nearly every issue from selecting projects to charge to validating submitted timesheet. Nearly everything can be automated and instantly processed. Proposal – 4 step process. Make a pilot group for Timesheet Tool - Phase 0. Present Excel version against Visual Studio Windows Application version. Take TT to Phase 1 – Release in stages Take TT to Phase 2 – Release in stages Success Criteria – 100% adoption, nearly 100% automated, near zero FieldGlass upload errors, total annual time savings > $150K and/or 45 hours a week. Returned timesheets should be significantly reduced. Validation should take a fraction of the time, and timesheets should only take a few minutes for those who bill to all projects. Opportunity Statement
Current Timesheet Process Clarity Data Update New projects are added, updated, deleted. Timesheet Admin allocates Clarity projects so employees can bill Project Plan Update Get Project Plan PR Codes for timesheets Do a Clarity lookup for SAP codes Filter out dark, restricted, Op, etc. Request Clarity allocations for missing projects Validate that each project is in FG list Update FG CSV if necessary FG Upload CSV Locking issues Delays CSV export to FG waiting for people to check in and out People enter data incorrectly Prep and Send to FG Complete/Submit Timesheets Manual add each project to FG and Clarity Calculate daily hours per project Adjust for Time Off / Overtime Compare delta Approve/Reject Timesheets Compare allocations against Project Plan Find delta for Clarity to FG Find delta for Time Off Calendar to timesheets Repeat Process for the Rejects Several complicated and tedious steps with current processes.

Timesheet Admin allocates Clarity projects so employees can bill Automate allocations based off master list Audit PR to SAP mapping for accuracy Project Plan Update Get Project Plan PR Codes for timesheets Do a Clarity lookup for SAP codes Filter out dark, restricted, Op, etc. Request Clarity allocations for missing projects Validate that each project is in FG list Update FG CSV if necessary Timesheet Tool Employee Enter PR codes, get complete list of projects Auto submits FG CSV records Admin Email late people Generate CSV FG Upload CSV Locking issues Delays CSV export to FG waiting for people to check in and out People enter data incorrectly Prep and Send to FG Complete/Submit Timesheets Need a way to bulk add a list to Clarity Calculate daily hours per project Adjust for Time Off / Overtime Compare Delta Approve/Reject Timesheets Compare allocations against Project Plan Find delta for Clarity to FG Find delta for Time Off Calendar to timesheets Delta automated with Phase II of Timesheet Tool The Timesheet Tool reduces most of the work, from hours to minutes. Key Proposed Timesheet Process = Obsolete = New Feature
