SAN FRANCISCO -- Innovative Data Entry Module for Field Supervisors Allows Time and Job Information to be Sent from the Job Site Directly to the Home Office

Aligo Inc., a global leader in mobile field force software solutions, today announced the launch of WorkTrack Timesheet, a new

field supervisor module for the construction industry that automates time and job data collection by allowing the collection of regular, overtime and double-time hours, job numbers, tasks, cost codes and work order numbers directly from the field as well as integrating that information into production tracking and payroll systems. Aligo's WorkTrack product, developed for the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), electrical and plumbing industries is now tailored specifically for the needs of construction and building trades.

As part of the Aligo WorkTrack product family, WorkTrack Timesheet was developed with and launches with Anning-Johnson Company, one of the largest specialty drywall contractors in the United States with offices from Seattle, WA to Washington D.C. WorkTrack Timesheet was designed to deliver immediate value for customers in the construction industry by offering a simple, easy to use application that runs on BlackBerry devices for superintendents and foremen in the field. Immediate returns are secured in both return on investment and total cost of ownership by keeping time and job information real time, all the time. With WorkTrack Timesheet, Aligo offers a unique solution to the construction vertical that eliminates the time spent on filling out paperwork, driving drive time to the home office as well as manual data entry and errors.

"We have confidence in Aligo to support our operational needs now and in the future. Aligo is the only provider today that delivered on our business and industry specific requirements," said Todd Fearon, Senior Vice President of Anning-Johnson. "A simple automated timesheet solution for our field crews across the country will greatly reduce our overall cost of operations, and most importantly, allow us to gain accurate real time visibility of our production tracking and job costing."

Immediate Value: Immediate Information

As a hosted service, WorkTrack Timesheet eliminates the need for companies to buy and manage additional hardware and software while delivering the cost savings associated with automated processes and systems.

"We are extremely excited to launch this product with a customer like Anning-Johnson to meet their needs for over 1,300 workers across the country," said Emerick Woods, President and Chief Executive Officer of Aligo. "We are actively engaged in the implementation and rollout of WorkTrack Timesheet to over 1,000 construction and building trade users and expect to aggressively continue gaining market share. We are very proud to be the first to market with a tested, unique solution that delivers real value to our customers in the construction industry."

Timesheet is priced per BlackBerry on a monthly subscription basis. For more information, please contact Aligo at 866-667-6167 or sales@aligo.com.
