Workforce software for workshop, site, and shift operations—planned and actual hours together.
Shift planning, time tracking, and jobs in one flow—so supervisors and HR keep control, even away from a desk.
Clock-in and planning on mobile—even without a PC in the van or plant.
Fewer calls about hours and shifts; more focus on delivery.
Actual hours, breaks, and premiums documented—fewer correction runs.
Trades and manufacturing do not need office-only software—they need tools that work on site and on the shop floor.
Ordio combines shift plans, mobile time tracking, and a team app: supervisors see who is where and which hours have accrued.
Planning stays manageable—even when projects and crews change week to week.
Plan workshop, site, and production cover with availability, templates, and clear assignments to projects or teams. Ordio supports field deployment and shift operations in one tool instead of separate lists per job. You spot gaps earlier and avoid rebuilding spreadsheets on every last-minute change.
Your team clocks in on the app—on site or in the plant—with project time, breaks, and premiums in one system. Actual hours stay documented and easy to compare with the rota. That cuts back-and-forth on hours and gives a solid base for reporting and payroll prep—without paper in the van.
With Payroll Plus, planned and actual data flow together—overtime, premiums, and absences structured for payroll. You save the monthly reconciliation between supervisors, office, and payroll provider. Especially with changing sites and shift patterns in production, one system pays off.
Master data, contracts, and documents live centrally—even without a dedicated HR team. Supervisors and owners find paperwork faster; new hires get up to speed quicker. Workforce planning covers shifts and hours as well as administration.
From site to workshop: planning, hours, reporting, and checklists on one platform—even for small trade businesses.
See hours, cost, and workload by project, site, or team—and spot overtime or idle time earlier. Management and supervisors share one data source instead of parallel spreadsheets. That supports quotes, job costing, and workforce planning in trades and manufacturing.

Ordio bundles staff deployment and times for companies with changing shifts: shift and deployment planning, working time tracking, team communication and, if required, absences - for trade, workshop, construction site, assembly or production. This makes sense if you run several teams, locations or projects in parallel and want to manage the schedule, actual times and substitutions from one system instead of using Excel, paper and chat.
Shift planning assigns people and capacities to orders, construction sites or machines. The shift plan determines who works when (early, late, night, rotation). Project planning focuses on milestones and tasks along an order. In practice, these terms often intertwine - Ordio helps you to map everything in one system so that plan and reality match.
You define requirements per team, workshop or line, store availabilities and qualifications and allocate shifts and assignments to calendar weeks. You can balance out short-term changes (absence, additional order) via substitutions and clear communication - so it remains clear who is on duty where, without every change requiring a broadcast call.
In Germany, employers must document working hours systematically and comprehensibly; details and exceptions continue to evolve with legislation and case law - including on construction sites and in production. With Ordio, you can record the start, end and breaks digitally and make them available for evaluations and payroll preparation. In-depth information without legal advice: Guide: compulsory time tracking (German article).
Employees record times where they work - in the hall, on the construction site or on the road. Planned shifts from the shift plan and stamped actual times from the time tracking are together so that you can see deviations early on and use reports for controlling or payroll without duplicate data maintenance.
Yes. With the Ordio app, teams can see their assignments and shifts and record times on the move - on the construction site, in assembly or in the field. This takes the pressure off the office and workshop management, as there is less need to ask who is where and actual times do not have to be entered at the desk.
You create shift templates and rules (early, late, night, weekend), see overlaps and can use recurring patterns. In production, this helps to link line or shift requirements with available staff - instead of having to jigsaw every week. This means that shift operations can be planned, even if incoming orders fluctuate.
Yes. You create locations, teams or cost centres and manage resources centrally or separately—depending on your organisation. Construction sites, workshops and production lines remain traceable in one system so that assignments and shifts do not fall apart in separate spreadsheets.
In the trade, construction sites, orders and changing teams often dominate; in industry and manufacturing, lines, shift models and fixed cycles tend to prevail. Ordio maps both: shift templates for early/late/night, assignments per project or line and mobile time tracking where work is carried out—without two separate planning tools.
Tables are often sufficient for a small team with just a few variables. As soon as several construction sites, shift models, part-time work or many simultaneous orders are added, the maintenance effort and error rate increase. Ordio centralizes schedules, availabilities and times - typically worth the change if coordination and traceability regularly cost time and nerves.
Ordio focuses on operational personnel in the shift and deployment business: planning, recording, absences, app and extensions - without you needing a full enterprise HR suite. Simple time clocks often only cover recording; Ordio combines planning and times. You can supplement broader HR processes with specialist departments or suitable integrations.
If you want to bundle deployment, shift and time processes in trade or industry, it is worth having a guided discussion about your everyday life: arrange a demo and discuss specific scenarios (construction site, production, field service). You can find packages and conditions under prices.
