Construction company has expanded staffing after great year
EvaBuild, a construction company, has had a successful year in which they increased staff and turnover numbers.
The company carries out civil engineering, construction and groundworks projects for public sector and private sector organisations in England and Wales, specialising in groundworks for modular and traditional building works.
The company posted revenues of £4.5m, up from the previous year’s £3.2m.
The staff headcount has also increased in the past 12 months from 21 to 31 and the company has unveiled a fresh brand identity and website.
Newtown-headquartered EvaBuild was founded in 2011 by managing director Nick Evans.
Evans said: "We have had a fantastic 12 months culminating in year-on-year growth of over 30 per cent and the addition of 10 new people to the EvaBuild team.
"We are passionate about finding great new people to join our team whether it is a young apprentice looking for a break or a more experienced project manager. All of them receive the best possible training and opportunities to grow as our business grows.
"We have seen a step-change in the quality of contracts we have secured in the past couple of years and are now working with some household names in a number of sectors including education and healthcare.
"We have further significant plans for growth over the coming years and felt that the time was right to unveil a new brand identity and company website which will support us in the next stage of our expansion."
Additional workforce is a sign of success and growth for all businesses, but it can cause problems for HR, accounts and admin job tasks if not managed properly. For example, if your company still uses paper timesheets filled in weekly or monthly to work out attendance and wages, a sudden influx of more staff can add hours to a workload.
A workforce management system from Time and Attendance South West would bring your attendance systems up to date and reduce workloads considerably.
For example, managers would no longer need to approve every single timesheet every single week or month, and accounts staff would no longer need to laboriously type up the timesheets to enter them into the payroll system.
All the staff would need to do is clock in and out using one of our terminals, with either a smartcard or a biometric measurement (fingers or hands). This data is collected in our WinTA.NET software, and it can be exported straight to common payroll systems such as Sagepay.
Another useful function of our time and attendance system is an automated fire roll call. Currently you might be reading names with difficulty from a handwritten sign in sheet, which can be misplaced. In the future, our system can be hooked up to your fire alarm and when it goes off it will automatically print a list of everyone who is currently clocked into the building.
