Our engineering community have been telling us they’re frustrated at having to spend too much time accessing
information needed to open, progress & close jobs via their Task Force Client. We also know that time wasted doing
unnecessary work has a negative impact on our commercial performance.
Problem
Solution
• Too many screens to view, and associated
time required, to access, progress and close
jobs.
• This is exacerbated by having to replicate
this on time sheets.
• Our ability to keep customers informed and
message our people is reduced because of
current system architecture.
• Changes to taskforce are tied into the
current 90 day system deployment and
therefore we’re slow to react to future
demands.
• Introduction of a new client where all the
information is provided on single screens
for:
• Job receipt
• Job progression
• Job closure
• Tailored to each work-stream because we
know one size doesn’t fit all.
• Time sheets will be auto-populated (with
the ability for the eng to view and amend)
• Web browser application methodology will
be device agnostic – ie varying devices can
be used – blackberry/smart phones etc
• Shorten concept to market time cycle
• Improve the customer experience by
providing online job progression visibility

What have we done so far?
Hothouses...
Where we invited engineers and managers from
relevant work-streams to help us shape solutions
Forums...
Speaking to engineers to understand frustrations
and understand issues
Quality time spent with engineers...
So we could observe and get a better
understanding of the frustrations
Questionnaires...
To help us prove the time taken using Taskforce
and verify problem and solution
YSWL issues...
Grouped issues logged in the You Said We Listened
tool and will be addressing through programme

What’s next?
•Baseline data shows it takes on average 4.3 minutes to receive a job and 4.5
minutes to close a job via Taskforce.
•Using the proposed solution, this will reduce but also be more fit for purpose as it’s
work-stream based.
