IMS helps you to manage, organise and view your organisation as a whole rather than individual functions.
IMS is primarily a web service. It can be either locked down to internal access only or optionally opened up to allow access to anyone on the internet with a valid login.
Whether your needs are project management, timesheet management, job management, expenses management, accounts management, accurate up to date reporting, recruiting, client management or a company directory; IMS can help you with all this and more via our easy to use interface.
Acceleron's Integrated Management System (IMS) is a tool designed to assist everyone in your business. The end goal is to improve communication, direction and accountability amongst employees whilst generating a variety of reports for upper management.
CRM
A simple way of managing your current and prospective clients and tracking your interactions with them to give you the best chance of securing a deal.
Timesheets
IMS allows timesheet entry of jobs for effective time management. Every employee can fill out their own timesheet to show how much of their time they are spending working on which jobs and performing which tasks. Entries can be added as chargeable or non-chargeable so customers can be invoiced accurately and in a timely manner. Timesheet entries for the current week can be viewed as a simple table or as a list if preferred and for as long or short a period as is required.
Unit Costing
You can input each employees unit cost and have IMS generate reports to show where all of your wages are going.
Jobs
Any job that has been created can be viewed, details of the job can be added along with files/documents that are associated with the job. A convenient view of the particular jobs worked on is displayed in an easy to view manner.
Milestones
A milestone is a short to medium term piece of work. An example milestone title might be "IMS version 4". Tasks can be assigned to milestones and then handed out to employees for completion - tasks can be checked off as they are completed. Employees can see a list of all unfinished tasks which relate to them or the jobs they work on. IMS can generate weekly reports showing milestone progress, tasks completed in a given week, tasks outstanding, who has been closing tasks and how much each milestone has cost for that week.
Goals
You can define long term goals and specify which milestones are contributing towards which goals. IMS can then generate a report showing how the goal is progressing, who the main contributors are and how much it is costing you.
Clients
IMS provides you with an easy to use searchable location to store all your clients details and allows you to seamlessly link these in with timesheet management, project management, accounts management and expenses management systems provided in IMS.
Client Access
Clients can be given special accounts which allow them to log in and securely access a specific set of files of your choosing (specifications, agreements, whatever they need). All access attempts are logged so you can see when the client has viewed a document.
Directory
View all contact details of the employees in your business grouped by their departments. You can see their business cards and initiate a Skype call if applicable. Click on a business card to get a scannable QR code for easy transfer of details. All of which can be linked to easily over the internet.
Expenses
Employees can fill out their expenses which will go to their line manager for approval.
Recruiting
IMS gives you your own recruiting website where you can post vacancies and manage applicants giving you a more professional web presence and enabling you to attract better candidates.
Reports
Ever find you need to see who has been working on what and when? IMS provides you with easy to understand up to date reports showing you how much time your employees have spent working and what they were working on enabling you to effectively manage your work force.
Accounts
Need to view your accounts? IMS provides you with an easy to use interface that enables you to see your financial accounts as and when you need to. These accounts are linked to your timesheets and expenses enabling you to manage your finances more effectivly.
