Efficient administration starts with digital time registration. This provides you with immediate insight into hours worked and projects. Benefits:
‍

  • Accurate billing: Prevent misunderstandings with digital registration.
  • Easy access: Stakeholders always have access to current time records.
    ‍

Increase transparency
Digital registration makes the process more transparent and efficient. This promotes communication about ongoing projects.

  • Easy viewing for hours.
  • Process payments faster.
    ‍

This speeds up the process, reduces errors and ensures transparency in time management.

‍

3. Digitize documents

Paper documents take up a lot of space and are difficult to find. By digitizing, they become searchable and accessible. Store them securely in the cloud or a document management system and easily share them with your team.

Benefits of digitized documents:
‍

  • Quicker search and find of important information
  • Reduced risk of losing paper documents
  • Access from any location and device
    ‍

Make sure your files are organized properly and use a clear way of naming files. This saves you time and prevents frustration.
‍

4. Increase profits with project insight

Digital administration provides control over your projects. Link project insight to quickly see profitability and areas for improvement, so you can make quick adjustments.
‍

With the right software, you can analyse your projects so that:
‍

  • Do you recognize trends in income and expenses
  • Make timely adjustments to limit losses
  • Do you increase your profits?
  • Plan your future projects more efficiently
    ‍

πŸ’‘ Tip for Timechimp users: Keep control of your project budget with budget notifications:
‍

  • Get notified when your budget is about to run out.
  • Take immediate action by adjusting the budget or making additional agreements with customers.

5. Automate recurring tasks

Many administrative tasks are repetitive and time-consuming. Consider, for example, sending invoices, reminders or processing time registrations. By automating these tasks, you not only save time, but you also prevent errors.
‍

Use software that supports automated workflows. For example:
‍

  • Reports: Automatically generate weekly or monthly reports.
  • Time registration: Link time records directly to your billing system.
  • Invoicing: Invoices that are not paid before the due date are automatically set to expire.
    ‍

With the right tools, you can streamline your administrative processes and spend your time doing what really matters: growing your business.

6. Use dashboarding

A good dashboard is essential for digital administration. With a dashboard, you get insight into important business information at a glance, such as:
‍

  • Outstanding invoices
  • Ongoing projects
  • Hours worked
    ‍

Tools with customizable dashboards help you monitor cash flow, profitability, and productivity. This way, you can keep a grip on your administration and prevent surprises.
