Bridgit Bench is a web and mobile-based workforce planning app that allows users to see which projects have too many or too few workers. The software has a Gantt chart and lets you change the timeline and number of workers assigned to each task. This allows you to match your staff to your project.
With a 12-month look ahead option on your projects, Bridgit Bench also makes it easy to predict how many people you will need to hire in the future. That gives your HR team time to hire more people if required, or it gives your sales team time to find more work for people who are "on the bench" because they don't have enough work.
Projects can be sorted and filtered in a way similar to how employees are. Users can quickly find the tasks they want to work on by searching by type, stage, location, and jobs with open positions.
Key Features
Bench Cost Module
The Bench Cost module in Bridgit Bench tells you how much it costs to use people who don't have jobs or aren't being used to their full potential. So, you can see right away how much money you might lose by leaving people on the bench.
You can sort the Bench Cost view by any field you're keeping track of on the platform—sort by places, projects, roles, and other things.
Certification Tracking
For some job site tasks, you must have a valid certification. Unfortunately, if you don't have a sound certification management system in place, it's easy for your insurance costs to go up. Even worse, if a case of non-compliance catches the organization off guard, it could lead to hefty fines.
With the Certification Tracking feature in Bridgit Bench, you can restate these worries. With the Certification Tracking module, you can add certifications to your people's profiles, get in-app reminders when they expire, and attach proof of certificates all in one place.
Enhanced Productivity
Poor productivity is one of the most significant risks for contractors. With the Utilization Rate Report and People Gantt, you can track how well your people are being used and use custom filters to see how different productive parts of your company are. With the Utilization Rate Report, you can find gaps quickly and fix them before they worsen.
