Case Study: Steven Winter Associates improves project tracking and compliance with HMS Software TimeControl

High-Performance Project Management Drives High-Performance Buildings At Steven Winter Associates

Steven Winter Associates, Inc. (SWA), a building performance and high-performance design firm, needed a better way to track time across as many as 1,500 active projects while meeting strict accuracy and compliance requirements, including DCAA standards. Before working with HMS Software, employees were using spreadsheet templates, which made time entry tedious and limited the real-time visibility needed to manage projects effectively.

HMS Software implemented TimeControl, its web-based enterprise timekeeping solution, in less than three months, with integration into SWA’s broader project management and ERP environment. The result was easier daily time entry, mobile access for field staff, personalized project views, and real-time data for project managers, including draft timesheet information. According to SWA, this improved transparency, compliance, and proactive project control, helping teams identify issues quickly and keep projects on time, on budget, and aligned with desired outcomes.
