Track certifications with the Certification Tracking in Bridgit Bench. General contractors can create a master list of certifications and set warning date ranges. General contractors can then add a certification to a person’s profile and set the expiration date for their certification. They’ll see a warning as the certification is approaching expiration.
Bridgit is introducing Scenario Planning, and more robust People and Project filters to its Forecasting page. General contractors will be able to see the impact of their project pursuits on workforce capacity and workforce productivity. General contractors will be able to filter the Strategic Workforce Plan Report, and the Utilization Rate Chart on any People or Project field, to get better insights into their workforce management.
