\n

In the context of process improvement, the Technology Department, which includes the Development\/Continuous Improvement Department, is working on new tools to optimize the work of employees.<\/p>\n

Among the new features, Paul Vareille, Continuous Improvement Technician<\/em>, and Jean-Sébastien Durocher, Programmer Analyst<\/em>, have developed a distance management solution designed to minimize the travel distance between employees’ work sites and their homes.<\/p>\n

This new tool, which includes a database of 291 employees and 98 worksites in the Greater Montreal area, automates the calculation of distances between worksites and employees’ homes. The length of nearly 29,000 trajectories is automatically calculated.  <\/p>\n

What are the benefits?<\/h3>\n

In addition to facilitating the work of foremen and their assistants, who used to make the various calculations manually, this tool has several benefits:
\n– Reduced travel time for employees: site superintendents can now assign them to work sites closer to their home;
\n– Reduced risk of accidents during travel;
\n– Fewer errors that create frustration for site employees since the bonuses associated with kilometrage and site type are automatically recorded on the time sheet;<\/p>\n

With these highly satisfactory results, the project will be deployed at other divisions. <\/p>\n

\nMejora de los procesos<\/h2>\n

En el contexto de la mejora de los procedimientos, el departamento de Tecnología, del cual depende el departamento de Desarrollo y Mejora continua, trabaja en nuevas herramientas que faciliten el trabajo de los empleados.<\/p>\n

Entre las novedades, Paul Vareille, Técnico en mejora continua y Jean-Sébastien Durocher, Programador analista, idearon una solución de gestión de distancias, cuyo objetivo es minimizar la lejanía entre las obras y los lugares de residencia de los empleados.
\nEsta nueva herramienta, la cual contiene una base de datos relativa a los 291 empleados y las 98 obras de la gran región de Montreal, automatiza el cálculo de las distancias entre las obras y el domicilio de los empleados. De esta manera, casi 29 000 distancias son calculadas automáticamente.<\/p>\n

¿Cuáles son las ventajas?<\/h3>\n

Más allá de facilitar el trabajo de los contramaestres y de sus ayudantes, quienes anteriormente debían realizar manualmente los diferentes cálculos, esta herramienta presenta varios beneficios:
\n– Reducción del tiempo de los trayectos para los empleados: los superintendentes de obra tienen ahora la posibilidad de asignar las obras más cercanas a los domicilios de los empleados.
\n– Disminución del riesgo de accidentes durante los desplazamientos.
\n– Reducción de los errores que crean frustración a los empleados de las obras, al transcribir automáticamente las primas asociadas al kilometraje y al tipo de obra en el archivo utilizado para la entrada de las horas.<\/p>\n

En vista de que los resultados han sido muy satisfactorios, este proyecto será implementado en las demás divisiones.
