They can now download their technicians’ calendar according to the project's dates), simply by adding start and end date of the work packages and then selecting the man-power download from the resource calendar.

Resource calendar
|
Resource calendar download Resource manager can now create a Manpower plan through our Resource calendar and its new powerful download feature. It allows resource managers and project managers to build a plan for any given time range. The plan shows who is assigned to which tasks and can include any custom field added to a personnel profile too (e.g. OEM, Country, …). For each date in the chosen time range, the plan shows what work package each person is assigned to, their work schedule, team name and base, - and unavailability when not assigned to any work. The download is provided as an Excel file for ease of use.
|
Personnel
|
Training matrix download
The Personnel view has a new Excel download that allows resource managers to download a complete skills matrix. The matrix shows all skill groups and skills for each person with the status of each skill. With this feature, resource managers get an overview within a sheet, of certifications status (Valid, Expired, Expiring Soon or Pending) with the corresponding dates. The resource manager can therefore plan training and refreshers, or in some instances hire specific resources. This way, resource managers, planners and schedulers can always have personnel with the right and valid skills assigned to a particular work order.

| Navigation |
Open a Work order from an Activity It is now possible to open the work order that an activity belongs to when looking at an activity. This will allow project managers to quickly navigate to the work order when planning and checking an activity or a work order. Coming soon: The ability to create a new work order from an activity. |
Personnel field rename |
Personnel field rename The “Technician” checkbox field on the Personnel page has been renamed to “Include in optimisation schedule” to better represent how this field is being used in the system. If the box is checked for a person, then that person will be included when a schedule is being optimised on the planning board. |

Activity
|
Activity duration vs Time registered
Registering time is important to track when working in any project, from ensuring employees and contractors are paid what they are due o facilitate the correct invoicing to customers. It allows also the comparison of planned versus actual hours, which in turn will lead to streamlining future plans. At the operational level, Team leads need to make sure the time registered by their team is matching the actual duration of the activities they performed.
|
Timesheets
|
Offline support for timesheets
Billable hours are an important aspect of any project. Resource managers need the ability to prepare reports of time registered by personnel while working offshore.
Shoreline’s solution allows on-site, in-transit, and office personnel the ability to register their hours simply and effectively when offline.
With the new Timesheets feature, Team leads responsible for time reporting can now complete reports quickly and accurately, while working in an environment with low or no internet connexion.
In addition, with this upgraded feature, technicians can now register time for Unplanned activities as they occur, and they can register them whether they have network connection or not.

Timesheets download
Resource managers can now filter, download and report hours registered faster and reduce administrative tasks. The filtering function allows you to configure reports to display and download only the precise information required to fit the needs of each of your different stakeholders (accounting, customers, installation managers...). The download feature supports Pdf and excel files.

Import
|
Import of custom sections and fields for personnel
Resource managers can now create and update tailored personnel profiles for their employees, reflecting internal and external requirements. The process is faster thanks to the new import function allowing to capture your existing data. This way you ensure your historical data is captured, your operations can continue unaffected, and you have documented evidence in case of audit or verification. The import is done simply and efficiently through a .csv file and the use of the fields mapping in Shoreline.

Assets
|
Cables and import
The energy production generated by wind turbines depends on cables to transfer this power from the wind farm to the substation. Project admins need the ability to quickly register the cables' location and any information updates.
This solution allows project admins the ability to accurately import the cable location and its connexions to the assets.
Installing and maintaining inter-array and export cables are crucial milestones to complete. With the addition of cables in the site overview, site managers and marine coordinators can accurately see the location, responsible for this asset type and be in control of the status of all the cables in the windfarm in one simple view.
