Most of FeelEat’s staff work on shifts, away from a desk. Their hours, attendance, reviews and sign-offs sat in back-office systems they never saw, so even a simple question about hours went through HR.

We gave them an app that shows each person the same records HR and payroll use. It syncs live with the ERP in both directions.

96% of staff were using the app within thirty days. Payroll reconciliation now runs at 99.8% accuracy, and managers have about fourteen hours a week back from timesheet admin.

The challenge

Every question went through HR.

Even checking a balance meant calling someone.

01 — The problem

Paperwork and phone calls filled the gap.

Staff on shift had no easy way to check or correct their own data.

  • Questions by phone: staff called HR to ask about hours, balances or schedules.
  • Paper sign-offs: documents had to be printed, signed and collected from each site.
  • Dashboards for managers only: employees couldn’t see their own numbers.
  • Slow corrections: mistakes only showed up at payroll, weeks later.
02 — The solution

Staff and payroll look at the same numbers.

Data flows both ways, so a change in one place shows up in the other.

  • Personal view: each employee sees only their own records.
  • Digital signatures: documents signed in-app and archived automatically.
  • Live ERP sync: employees see the same hours payroll uses.
  • Secure login: strong authentication in front of personal records.
What we built

Employees and managers use the same app.

Here is what each of them sees.

01

Working-hours view

Schedules, completed hours and overtime for each employee, updated from the ERP.

02

Attendance logs

Clock-ins and attendance history for each person, the same record HR sees.

03

Performance dashboards

Personal figures for employees and managers, taken from live operational data.

04

Digital signatures

Contracts and policies signed in the app, with nothing to print.

05

Biometric login

Login uses biometrics and is tied to the employee’s own phone, because the app holds personal employment data.

06

Live updates

Schedule changes and announcements, sent straight to the people they affect.

How we built it

Shift staff shaped what went into the app.

Shadowing real shifts showed us which questions came up most.

1

Shadowing shifts

Followed kitchen, logistics and retail shifts and noted what people asked HR.

2

Quick screens

Made for a short break: hours at a glance, attendance in one tap.

3

Apps and ERP sync

iOS and Android apps connected to the ERP, syncing live in both directions.

Site launches

Sites moved to the app one at a time.

The hard parts

What kept us up at night.

Where it could have gone wrong.

01

Matching payroll’s numbers

If the app showed different hours from payroll, staff would stop trusting both. Live two-way sync with the ERP keeps a single record that both sides use.

02

Staff take-up

The app had to answer everyday questions faster than calling HR. It did, and 96% of staff were on it within thirty days.

03

A record for every signature

A digital sign-off has to hold up later and still take only one tap. Each one is logged and archived with its evidence.

Staff switched because the app answered their questions quicker than HR could.

I run operations, so I judge software by how it behaves at seven in the morning when a fridge or a shift goes wrong. With CODT Technologies I have one team that knows the whole setup, answers quickly and fixes the root cause.
