Richard Tovey Transport Services choose Falcon Access Control

Leading logistics provider Richard Tovey Transport Services Ltd, who provide both standard and specialised logistics solutions, needed a simple-to-use and cost effective Access Control system to provide protection for their new key store and main office door.

They wanted to be able to approach the implementation of a system in a flexible manner including the possibility of installing some of the system themselves to enable them to meet their budgetary requirements.

Access-to-Time Ltd was selected as the preferred supplier of the Falcon Access Control system. Their flexibility combined with the functionality of this solution provided the service required by Richard Tovey Transport Services Ltd.

The flexibility meant that, for this implementation, A2T only installed the software, provided user training and made off the final connections between the hardware involved with all the cabling and installation of the hardware being carried out by Richard Tovey Transport Services Ltd.

A good compromise that enabled the best solution to be provided and meet the budget!

Operations Manager Simon Stroud said that the manner in which the installation was handled and the support provided both before, during and after the installation was very good and that he would not hesitate to recommend the services of Access-to-Time Ltd to any company who is looking for this kind of system.

Thorn Cycles - TimeLOG Time and Attendance

Thorn Cycles, also known as SJS Cycles, started in 1983 with a small shop supplying and maintaining cycles for the local area. We now have 30 members of staff working in premises of 1200 square metres and cater for a large, discerning UK market as well as demand from overseas.

"We use the TimeLOG system, which was specified by A2T when we were looking for a system some years ago to help us improve time keeping. This it has certainly done!

We wanted to install the hardware ourselves so that we could meet our budget rather than having to pay someone else to do it. A2T were agreeable to that approach.

After we had installed the hardware and cabling, A2T commissioned the system very efficiently. The software was installed on our server by A2T and the data connection worked easily. To save us time in getting the system up and running, we chose to have our rules programmed into the system by A2T.

Our system administrators were trained by A2T in the day-to-day use of the system. We found that the data from the system enabled us to improve staff time keeping. We also have lots of easy-to-access reports that analyse attendance and working hours in different ways.

A2T continues to support us in a friendly and efficient manner. We are happy to recommend A2T as a supplier of Time and Attendance systems."

Time and Attendance at Camellia Contracts

Camellia Contracts have been using the Focus time and attendance software for some time now and these manufacturers of intricate Glass Fibre moulded structures wrote to us saying “...how pleased we are in how Focus is operating."

"...A2T did a good job on site in installing the system & software for us. It was then a smooth process in inducting the staff onto the system and surprisingly, there were no major issues raised by the staff in Focus being implemented."

"It's proved beneficial in reducing time that staff lost in arriving late/leaving early. It is also saving both time & money in respect to the wages being accurately calculated on a weekly basis, without the need for the works manager to manually obtain the time sheets and calculate all the permutations of total hours worked/annual leave/sick leave/overtime that arise."

"It also relieved the necessity of staff signing themselves in/out in the event of a fire due to the ability to print off a Fire Report stating who's on the premises at any one time and this is a benefit in our fire risk assessments."

"Focus has proved reliable and when we have had any queries, the support from yourselves at A2T has been faultless."

"I would have no hesitation in recommending yourselves for similar installations.”

If you are not getting the best out of your Time and Attendance system then get in touch with us and take advantage of our free consultancy offer to see how you could benefit like Camellia Contracts have. Call us now on 01761 410015.

Focus Time and Attendance System chosen by Taunton Fabrications

Access-to-Time Ltd provides the right solution at the right price!

Award winnig steel fabrication & architectural metalwork business, Taunton Fabrications, is now using a Focus Lite hand scanner system supplied and fitted by A2T. The company employs around 50 staff at their head office in Taunton and needed to ensure that they chose a system that was robust, easy to use, expandable and cost effective - the Focus Lite system was the perfect choice.

Chief Executive, David Phelps said: "For some time we have operated a flexi working hour system in all departments. This enables staff to better balance their home/ work life, but it was becoming increasingly difficult to monitor. After researching the market we chose A2T because they were local and specialised in the type of product we were looking for. A2T were also able to wire in the system, connect it to our computer system and provide training to our administrators - it was essential that we used a supplier who could provide the complete package."

If you would like to know more about the system and how it can help you on a day-to-day basis then get in touch with Access-to-Time Ltd on 01761 410015 or use our enquiry form. You might be surprised at how easy and cost effective it is to implement a system.

Focus Time and Attendance System now has TOIL

Good afternoon...


Users of the Focus time and attendance system will be pleased to hear that TOIL or time off in lieu is now available within the system.

This allows the user to accrue time that is added to their holiday allowance so that they can take time off later to make up for the extra hours that have been worked over and above their normal working hours.

Employers can save money by implementing a TOIL system instead of paying overtime.

Employees also benefit from being able to accrue more holiday.

If you want a biometric clocking solution then the Hand scan or Handpunch terminals offer a good solution.

If you have an annual licence then get in touch with us and we will email you the new program or provide you with a link to it.

Employees say how much easier it is to clock instead of having to keep paper records. Payroll staff only have to check the results, no more lengthy calculations to cope with.

The Focus system also allows users to manage holiday and other absences very easily, see who is booked on holiday already with just a few clicks of the mouse, no more routing around holiday cards to see who is already booked off.

Saving Money with Biomtric Time and Attendance

Breaking news...

McDonalds in Venezuela is using Handscan (also known as Hand Punch) terminals to monitor employees clocking at 85 sites.

They say they are cutting payroll costs by 22%!!

Read the article here...Article

You too can save by implementing a system that prevents 'buddy punching' as it is known. The same terminals are supplied with several of the systems provided by Access-to-Time (A2T).

Installing a time and attendance system also improves employees arrival times. One of our most recent new customers commented that the number of late arrivals had dropped dramatically at their printing works in Chippenham, even when the Focus time and attendance system was running on a pilot run without even being fully implemented!

Saving time on calculations also helps the administrator of the payroll system. This may either be through carrying out the calculations needed on a weekly basis automatically or by providing an electronic export to stop double entry of data or for emailing to a payroll bureau.
