Beaumont, Texas (July 11, 2008)  – mJobTime Corporation, a leading provider of enterprise-level employee time and attendance tracking software solutions for the construction industry, has announced two new advanced features that will keep the company at the leading edge of innovation in the construction software industry.

The company recently revealed the addition of integrated GPS technology to its latest version of mJobTime. This powerful, transparent feature enables field foremen to transmit wireless timecards with no extra effort using GPS coordinates. The GPS readings pinpoint each employee’s exact location at the moment they clock in or clock out.

GPS is a satellite-based navigation system that utilizes a series of orbiting satellites to provide triangulation and accurate navigational signals. A GPS system employs a land-based antenna, or receiver to track the information provided by the satellites to compute the receiver’s position accurately. As the accuracy of GPS technology has improved, construction companies are now adopting it as a means to improve productivity.

“Our customers have requested the most accurate tracking available and we have delivered on this exciting new technology,” said Director of Technical Services, Mike Soniat. “Now, they have the ability to track employee locations throughout the day, to insure maximum efficiency.”

The company also announced a new Spanish language interface that enables field personnel using mJobTime on PDAs or smart phones, to view all menu items, labels, and messages in Spanish. 

“Many customers have told us that they would like to upgrade their outdated manual timekeeping systems, but were hesitant because of the language barrier that exists for some employees. We listened and developed the new Spanish language interface to help field employees use mJobTime to its full potential,” said Soniat.

“mJobTime has always been an extremely easy-to-use application, but even the most straight-forward programs can be difficult if you don’t understand the language,” said Soniat.  “Now, mJobTime is very simple in two languages.”
