Smarter approvals

Instant updates to rosters

Teams submit leave, RDOs and availability; managers approve with the impact on coverage clearly highlighted. Rosters update instantly so turbine climbs, stringing runs and substation works stay manned. Support FIFO or all‑in/all‑out rotations and fatigue rules while keeping schedules balanced with leave management.

Give teams the app they’ll use
