This time, the theme is labor-hour management in software production and development (especially web).
What do you think of when you hear the term "man-hour management"?
I'm sure there are many people who are somewhat resistant to it, wondering why they need to enter data every day or how troublesome it is.
I used to be the same way, but my experience with man-hour management at various companies and my experience running a company led me to think about what the ideal man-hour management would be.
Of course, Enfactory uses its own man-hour management tool.
The role of labor-hour management
I won't go into the basics here, but I think there are two main perspectives to consider when it comes to the role.
1. Management tools from the (corporate) administrator's perspective
Labor-hour management to do what is necessary for the company, overseas chinese in worldwide database such as software cost and asset management, evaluation criteria, and personnel resource adjustment.
2. Tools for analyzing projects and individual activities
To review the project, improve it, and use it in the next project.
Also, to manage man-hours to create a good balance and rhythm in individual actions .
Of these two perspectives, 1. is a must-have tool, but ultimately, if 2. isn't the goal, then
members will feel like they're being forced to do it for the administrator and will end up repeatedly reporting on the amount of work they do, which will leave a negative impression.
