For defence members: writing up the picket, guard duty or overwatch list has never been easier with Picket List assigning members to time slots automatically! Keep track of your groups of people in 'Squads', save, modify and re-use them. For shift managers: Easily assign people to a period of work - possible uses are for security company managers or anyone that needs to easily break down a time period and allot some of that time to different people. You can add and remove members from the list on the fly, even switch their positions and watch the times recalculate for you!

About

IGO JMS

Features
Read full description

JMS is an end to end mobile and web application that enables staff members to submit a digital Journey Management Plan to their managers in line with any company’s HSSE policies regarding road travel. This helps companies to remain informed of staff transit schedules, destinations, potential risks and other relevant information regarding their journeys. With JMS, we provide a simplified process where managers easily view and approve submitted requests. From there, JMS will calculate on its own where an employee or contractor should stopover for rest or resume their journey resulting in effective fatigue management. JMS will inform you of staff arrival at their check-in points and will escalate notifications if they miss their check-in point ETA by a predetermined amount of time gaining you precious minutes in ensuring employee safety. JMS is auditable for internal or client reporting purposes and is customisable so as to align with any company’s risk mitigation strategies. From departure and safety alerts, to incidents and arrival, JMS will keep you updated about everything that happens on the journey. With us, the safety of your staff is our highest priority.
