Time & effort certification software and reporting system

Simplify effort reporting

Ensure compliance with automated effort certification

Nobody wants their institution to get hit with financial penalties, funding disallowances, or a PR crisis. But when effort reporting isn’t done properly, those are all serious risks. The problem is that effort reporting can be burdensome and error prone, especially if you have to pull data from different systems.
